Companies don’t hire the person with the best degree, most experience. Then who’s the winner? ↪️Who they believe will bring the most value! The reason you need to invest in your resume/LinkedIn to be result-oriented. -Get yourself crystal clear on your target roles. -Build a resume that perfectly aligns with your ‘what’s next’. -Use LinkedIn to brand yourself; Tell your story; Differentiate. That’s the way to go. Rebrand yourself; making your story compelling. And see the magic happens. P.S.: If you're an executive with 20+ years of experience. Branding helps you influence them. They'll only see the value you offer. #executiveresume #storytelling
You jobs skills and you job SEEKING skills are not the same thing. You need to drill down on how to search and be a good candidate first.
Absolutely spot on! Another critical aspect to consider is the power of networking and building authentic relationships. Leveraging your connections can often open doors that a resume alone cannot. Additionally, showcasing your thought leadership through engaging content and active participation in industry discussions can significantly elevate your personal brand. It's not just about telling your story but also about being a part of the larger conversation in your field. This holistic approach can truly set you apart and highlight the unique value you bring to the table. #Networking #ThoughtLeadership
Position yourself as the best fit for the role and you will land it, Zohaib Ahmad!
People confused "Credentials" with "Qualifications" all the time. Credentials are only part of the story - and for more and more tech roles, a much smaller part of the story!
They told me in college that, “if I make good grades, I’ll have any job I want.” False! Stick with Zohaib Ahmad
Strong candidates need strong career marketing collateral to showcase their value. Otherwise they risk losing out to a potentially less-qualified candidate.
Your stories sell your value. If you can’t communicate your value, you may lose out to those who can.
Companies are trying to solve a problem or challenge. Show how you are a solution to that challenge and you're halfway there. Great advice Zohaib Ahmad.
Value needs to not only be had, Zohaib Ahmad... It has to be communicated.

5moHmm, gonna elaborate a little here if that’s ok with you, Zo: Great resume → interview Great interviewer → offer A great resume doesn’t result in job offers, being great at interviewing does. Overall, you’re right regarding showcasing value in a resume—it’s how you align with their need. What do you think, Zohaib?
