These are desperate times for many job seekers. But you can avoid desperate-looking and time-wasting measures when it comes to putting together and marketing your resume.
There are more than six job seekers for every job opening, based on Bureau of Labor Statistics data from November. And the first mistake many of them make is sending out resumes in bulk without giving much thought to whether they are a good fit for a job.
“Everybody’s desperate so they’re wallpapering resumes everywhere,” said Susan Whitcomb, a Fresno, Calif., author and president of Career Coach Academy. “That’s not effective because it just screams, ‘I’m desperate! I need a job!’ “
An effective job search does not entail “sitting at your computer all day sending off your resume into the hinterland,” said Andrea Kay, a career consultant and author in Cincinnati. Only about 15% of your time should be spent responding to job ads online, she said.
