Resume Template
Anyone have a good resume they wouldn't mind sharing? Know of a good place to download a template? I've asked about some cover letter advice here in the past and got some excellent advice, so I figured I could get just as good info about resumes. Current one is a bit dated, stylistically.

Just dropping this in here...

As a long time Manager who has seen more resumes in my work life than I care to admit.....

Way too many times the resumes received don't really match the true skills of the candidate.....both positively and negatively.

The biggest sham now is employers (hr) that run everything through a computer. If you do not add key words in your answers/resume, the will not look at you to be interviewed.

Make sure you add words in your resume and skills that they want and need for a job.

Get on linkedin too.

Yeah, I've heard stories where a hiring manager recommends someone with a ton of experience, they apply and then get filtered out... and then it makes you wonder how many more highly qualified candidates get filtered out.

Yeah...I have always hated the JR software programs that do filter out what ends up being qualified candidates. I had an agreement with our HR rep....send me 2 files...one that had the qualified candidates according to your software and one with the non-qualified candidates.

You would be surprised how many times I ended up hiring from the second list and got a great employee.

Happens all time in education. Many here use a questionnaire that has to be done so that you have the right to apply. If you dont use the "educational bullshit" words, you will not get an interview. The other thing it does is week out less tech savvy people.
I have heard of people adding words in with a small font, and white color, so that they get bumped up and a better chance of getting an interview.

To me, it is the HR person that is just lazy.

It happened to me with jobs I felt I was borderline over qualified for. It was a hard lesson many years ago.

But I understand why it happens. We get over 500 applications in a week for mid-tier jobs. No way our recruiters could even get through half of them in a reasonable amount of time and 95% of them are junk. It's a necessary evil.

I use to have a section titled "Experience with" that listed every piece of software I's ever worked with. Interviewers understood what I was doing and didn't mind. I eventually took it out and worked the software list into the resume.

Linked in is a must. You don't have a good public profile that matches your resume, I'd not interview you.

OMG this is so true these days. Even when they are not lying on their resume just adding the usual fluff to a resume. That's okay but in what I do there is a big difference between designed the architecture and just helped implement it.

You need the architect level for this position but you get the guy who just helped implement and you know within 5 minutes that the candidate isn't qualified for the position and everyone has wasted their time... again,

I know a lot of institutions are now teaching students to use generative AI platforms to create resumes.

LinkedIn just feels like Business Facebook anymore. Maybe that’s all it ever was. Can’t wait to “connect” with previous and potential employers!

I agree with the necessary evil part...

It's when they use the software to hide behind doing what they are paid to do....search for the best candidate.

Wait until companies run AI resumes though AI to see if they are written by AI.

That's why we started testing candidates. We do a basic resume screening (by a person, not a computer or AI), and then those candidates are invited to come in for the test. The test weeds out the non-qualified folks quickly.

I still remember one job candidate many years ago who had a fantastic resume for a quantitative analyst position. I was stoked about the guy because on paper he checked every one of our boxes easily - lots of analysis experience, expertise in software, similar types of studies completed, etc. Then he came in, lasted about halfway through the test, and walked out saying that he didn't think he was a good fit for the job. I looked at his test afterwards and the guy couldn't do basic math. I have no idea whose resume he used, because it couldn't have been his.
