trackback
- Like many of my fellow college seniors, I am completely frustrated/baffled/overwhelmed by the entire job search process. The biggest dilemma for job seekers is trying to persuade complete strangers that not only are they qualified, but they also fit into the social framework of the company. You can’t illustrate all of that in a resume and cover letter. And recruiters understand that.
- I can’t imagine sifting through hundreds of resumes and applications and cover letters searching for the perfect employee. To any HR people out there, I applaud and thank you for all you do. My goal here is to make it (maybe) just a little bit easier.
- This blog is basically my social experiment to really humanize the job search and recruitment processes. I would like to showcase job seekers the way their peers would see them, either through profiles or personal interviews or the like. The more candid the better because then recruiters can get a better sense of us, the potential talent, as people, not just pieces of paper.
- Any tips and tools I find along the way will also be posted. Feel free to make suggestions, too, as I expect this to be almost a forum for everyone in the job market.
