Get your resume noticed with these 3 tips

1. Make sure relevant skills and qualifications are mentioned in your resume

Typically a few get response from the employers from thousands of job applicants. Employers filter out most relevant job applicants based on key words which are relevant to the job descriptions of a particular position. To get preference for response make sure the skills & qualifications you mentioned in the resume are relevant to the job descriptions.

2. Send your resume to the hiring manager

You must ensure that you have a compelling profile. The resume should be well organized & good looking with all relevant information (learn how to prepare a good resume). Do not forget to write a cover letter. Find the hiring manager and send your resume to her/him. If you do not reach the hiring manager, find the HR Manager.

3. Meet or make a phone call to the hiring manager

If you want to be get noticed you have to be more aggressive. After a few days of resume submission (or after a certain time) you should see the hiring manager or make a phone call to discuss about your job application. Hiring managers hire people they like. Demonstrate that you have the skills & qualifications they are looking for. During discussion you may establish a friendly conversation with the hiring manager to bring your resume in front of the right persons.
