      I am worried about ATS and spent hours after hours but could beat ATS. I have been watching your video for a long time. I found it very useful but did get any result. May be somewhere I am making a major mistake. Soon I will communicate with you. Kind regards

    I had no clue how to write an effective resume. It probably explained why I got so little response from the one I wrote. Eventually I was contacted by a specialist who did recruitment offering a fee to spruce up my profile. I paid and saw small progress with job replies. Very happy with result.

    Exactly. Tell the employer your story from the start so they don't have to painstakingly try to compile it themselves from numerous paragraphs of text down below. The career profile contextualizes YOU in the reader's mind, thereby shading the rest of their reading experience as they have your profile already in their mind.

    Thank you for your videos! You're a great asset to the jobseeker community! I'm a career changer, mainly due to recent medical limitations. And 48 yrs old. I am educated wth a BA in PoliSci and history from a top 10 public university (magna cum laude) and some grad school. I'd love to hear your tips on how to market myself given these parameters. Thanks.
    Edit: Also, it took me a long time to get settled in my career because my wife was military, so I was pretty transient for the first 12 years of my resume (2 years here and there until redeployment time). So, it's a difficult bag altogether.

    Hello Andy this is your fan in Doha watching you. My problem is I have work in different companies and have 23 years of experience . If I include my experiences in each company and put my achievements it will be long and my resume should be a marketing document not a list of what I did

    Think of your resume as a sales flyer; put the stuff you think makes you most marketable up top. Recruiters and hiring managers on average only spend five seconds looking at resumes, so you want to put something on top that will catch their attention.

    This is helping me drill down to my problem. I'm 48. I've never had a management role. All my relevant experience is from freelancing. I've never worked at a big name company, and I've never impacted a company's bottom line in any big, meaningful way. Am I just screwed?

      @@andylacivita I love a lot of what you do. But people in this situation desperately need more direction. I know, I'm right there with him. What you are doing is aimed at people with a rich history specifically in business. Many of us don't have that and this market is tossing us into the crap heap. Some direction for those of us who simply "just worked" and need direction on getting a job that offers a living salary is desperately needed - and NOT being addressed by anyone.

      @@RuthmarieHicks I have covered this endlessly in my free and paid videos. I realize it's difficult to watch everything I produce, but please don't assume I haven't covered it. If you want to start the very basic spot without a lot of work history, you can take my collegiate template and modify the profile in the collegiate sample for someone who is either junior in their profession or doesn't have a ton of major accomplishments.

    Is it important to write a career profile if my work experience only consists of six years at a single job? I get the impression that a career profile is more appropriate for some with mutiple employers otherwise it looks like filler in my opinion. Thoughts?

    hi, andrew. thanks for the amazing video! im a fresh graduate and i already saw your college resume template. is it necessary to put 3 highlights into the college resume too? what is your thought about it? thank you very much
    edit: im an architecture student and want to take a career as a sales, so i was thinking to put 3 highlights thats connected with a sales career (or maybe just highlight of education and work in general)

      also, do you have a video explaining how to make a cover letter for the college resume? ive downloaded the 4 sentence cover letter template, and actually added the 3 highlights because the cover letter said so. do you have any alternative to substitute that part?
