Since I've been spending time on Reddit's r/resumes community, I've written an article about how keeping a work journal vastly improves the quality of your resume bullet points. I also discuss Richard Scarry picture books, and what they can teach you about resume writing.

"…Children are not born knowing what a banker does, what a baker does, what a firefighter does. It’s both useful and lovely to explain basic job duties to children so they can understand how their town functions.
A lot of people, including job seekers on this subreddit, seem to think resumes are Richard Scarry books. People spend their resumes explaining what a baker does all day:
• rolled out dough for pies and bagels each morning
• sold doughnuts and muffins to customers; returned correct change
• turned off ovens and swept kitchen clean every night
WHAT? That’s only a resume if you were terrible at your job. I’m serious; if I saw those three bullet points on a baker’s resume, I would assume the baker in question had just been fired.…"

This is why I like Rezi, "move fast and break stuff"
The ability for you to add words and prompts to the resume builder is a great tool for career services and recruiters to give their candidates the edge they might need to get noticed.

Y'all......... I know the market is really tough right now for job seekers, but please please please.....don't fall for this.
The ATS is not some AI boogey man that scans resumes for keywords and automatically rejects them if they are missing.
ATS stands for
Applicant
Tracking
System
So it just TRACKS applicants, interviews and who got an offer and who accepted the offer/rejected the offer.
THAT'S IT!
There is no way to "hack" it.
Inserting hidden keywords and codes into your resume will not help.
Also, the fact that this feature is a PRO feature you have to pay for is just really concerning.....
If you ARE getting rejected, it's because a HUMAN looked at your resume and determined it was not a match, because
a) you didn't have the right qualifications
b) your resume was lacking clarity/didn't showcase your skills and accomplishments well
I'm really sorry.
If you are in the #localization industry and are looking for a new role, I'd be happy to take a look at your resume and give you FREE feedback 😊
