Redesign Your Clients Resumes to get them Shortlisted @ Online at your desk

redesign your clients resumes to get them shortlisted

Wednesday 5 june 2024

2.00pm-3.30pm AEST

PLATFORM: GO TO WEBINAR

TARGET GROUP

All Frontline Staff

SUMMARY

Did you know that online application systems are rejecting your client resumes for simple things like a font type?

Have you and your client ever pulled together a great job application, flicked it off, waited, waited and waited, and received no reply? These days many organisations use HR Software to screen out documents based on formatting, lack of key words and other things that you may not be aware of.

The change from human eyes reviewing the initial application to computer software analysing the application has changed the way successful applications are formatted. This webinar will provide an understanding of those changes and how they are impacting on your clients success.

It will make you look at addressing criteria and your resume templates in a whole new light.

This is ideal for frontline staff who are advising clients on the application process and what they need to do to avoid being rejected by online application / recruitment databases / HR Software.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

  • An understanding of how online applications are processed by screening software is essential to know so your clients are not screened out on the first pass
  • The importance of key words in your job seeker’s application and matching these to the advertisement or industry that they are applying for
  • Formatting and making things pretty- why this does not work with online applications. Fonts to use, and fonts not to use!
  • Keeping it simple – how irrelevant or complex information on your online resume or application can be hurting your client’s chances of ending up on the ” Yes” list
  • Resume – the do’s and the don’ts, how to address gaps in employment history and how to adapt your resume to specific job applications.
  • The common mistakes that blocks resumes from getting through.
