How Recruiters Really Read Your Resume: 7 Steps in 7 Seconds

The reality is that your resume will most likely never be read in its entirety. And the real thought process when reading is…

“Is there anything in here that will allow me to eliminate this person from further consideration?”

In today’s competitive job market, employers are overwhelmed with the number of applicants, most of whom aren’t even remotely qualified. An employers’ only hope of getting to the viable candidates is to reject as many as possible, as quickly as they can.

How Recruiters Really Read Your Resume: 7 Steps in 7 Seconds (The Savvy Intern)

In order to keep yourself in the running for your next job, Mr. Usrchel provides us a few tips to keep in mind when sending out your resume. The tips will put you in the mindset of a recruiter (or help you understand how an Applicant Tracking System Works) so when the resume is sent, it is clear, concise and helps recruiters find the most important information about you, as quickly as possible.

A Letter to My 20-Year-Old Careerist Self About What Really Matters

Even if you’re older than the 20-Year-Old this article is dressed towards, the advice given by the 20-Year-Veteran Creative Director and Product Developer applies to everyone looking for a new Career.

But I’m here to tell you that there is no magic career bullet. You will ace interviews and flub interviews. You will get dream jobs, lose dream jobs, realize there are no true dream jobs, and life will march on.

So instead of trying too hard to get employers to want you, channel some of that nervous energy into figuring out if this is the best job for you.

Se desplegará personal del Departamento de Trabajo a las áreas de desastre para inscribir a los neoyorquinos impactados.
El Gobernador Andrew M. Cuomo anunció el día de hoy que la asistencia federal de desempleo por desastre ahora está disponible para todos los neoyorquinos que hayan perdido su trabajo como resultado del huracán Sandy. Los beneficios de desempleo por desastre están disponibles para brindar respaldo financiero a cualquiera que haya perdido su empleo y viva en el condado del Bronx, Kings, Nueva York, Richmond, Queens, Nassau, Suffolk, Rockland y Westchester.
Esta asistencia complementará el sistema del seguro de desempleo existente en Nueva York y ampliará la elegibilidad para incluir a personas que puedan no estar cubiertas de otra forma. El Departamento de Trabajo de los Estados Unidos se ha comprometido a brindar asistencia adicional de ser necesaria.

“La destrucción física ocasionada por el huracán Sandy ha sido terrible y la pérdida de empleos como resultado puede ser más nefasta todavía para los neoyorquinos”, dijo el Gobernador Cuomo. “Estos fondos federales proporcionarán asistencia financiera rápidamente a aquellos cuyo sustento ha sido truncado. Insto a los neoyorquinos impactados a que apliquen tan pronto como sea posible”.

Se desplegará personal del Departamento de Trabajo a las comunidades duramente golpeadas para ayudar personalmente a registrar a los neoyorquinos impactados para que reciban Asistencia de desempleo por desastre.

Cualquiera que se encuentre desempleado debido al huracán Sandy es elegible de inmediato y puede presentar un reclamo ante el Departamento de Trabajo. El criterio para el cobro de asistencia por desastre es más amplio que para el cobro de beneficios de desempleo regular. Específicamente, una persona puede cobrar asistencia por desastre en cualquiera de los siguientes casos:

• Sufrió lesiones durante el desastre y no le es posible trabajar, ya sea que la persona es un empleado o trabajador independiente.

• El lugar de trabajo se ha visto perjudicado o destruido, o la persona no puede trabajar debido al desastre.

Ejemplos de trabajadores independientes incluyen a propietarios de pequeñas empresas, conductores de taxi independientes, vendedores, pescadores comerciales independientes y granjeros.

El Comisionado del Departamento de Trabajo del Estado Peter M. Rivera dijo, “estas personas quieren trabajar y no pueden hacerlo debido a circunstancias que van más allá de su control. Este dinero irá directamente a ayudar a trabajadores que tienen familias que alimentar y recibos por pagar. Comuníquese con el Departamento de Trabajo y nosotros determinaremos para qué programa califica”.

Para aplicar para recibir beneficios de desempleo o asistencia de desempleo por desastre, aquellos afectados por la tormenta y que han perdido sus empleos o sus ingresos deben llamar al Centro de
Reclamos Telefónicos (TCC, por sus siglas en inglés) al 1-888-209-8124 o al 1-877-358-5306 si viven fuera del estado. Los solicitantes deben responder las preguntas para indicar si han perdido su empleo
