Important: Tips for Applicants As a hiring manager, I recently posted two job openings on LinkedIn: Recruiter and Truck Dispatcher. Unfortunately, I noticed that: 50% of applicants lacked relevant US market experience. Many resumes were incorrectly formatted or incomplete. Several applications were flagged as potential spams. To improve the hiring process, I'd like to share the following tips: For Applicants: 1. Carefully read the job description to ensure you meet the requirements. 2. Use a professional email address (not generic or numbered). 3. Format your resume correctly: - Include your name and relevant job title (e.g., "HR Professional"). - Clearly outline your experience and skills. 4. Proofread your application for spelling and grammar errors. Best Practices for Resume Formatting: 1. Use a clear, concise font (e.g., Arial, Calibri). 2. Include: - Full name - Professional summary/objective - Relevant work experience - Education and certifications - Contact information 3. Avoid: - Generic file names (e.g., "Resume.docx") - Numbered or coded file names, otherwise your email hit in the spam mails, and no one gonna notice it Let's Work Together: By following these guidelines, we can streamline the hiring process, reduce scams, and find the best candidates for the job.
