Beware of Ghost Vacancies! 👻 Have you ever applied for a job that seems perfect, only to never hear back? You might have encountered a "ghost vacancy." These are job postings that companies aren't actively hiring for. They might keep these listings up to gather resumes or to show they're growing. It's frustrating, but here are some tips to avoid them: 1. Check Posting Dates: If the job has been up for months, it might be a ghost. 2. Research the Company: See if they have other active listings and recent hires. 3. Look for Clues: Vague descriptions and no specific contact person can be red flags. Stay smart and don't get spooked by ghost vacancies!

Career Strategist | Job Search Specialist | Resume Writer ► Empowering job seekers with tailored career plans and optimized resumes.
Are you feeling stuck in your career, despite your remarkable achievements? You're not alone, and more importantly, there's a way forward that can lead to both satisfaction and substantial financial rewards. I've seen clients secure pay raises from 20% to an astonishing 110% after refining their resumes. How? It's not magic—it's strategy. The secret lies in effective personal branding, not just through a smart font or color choice, but by marketing your unique talents and career achievements as a cohesive, standout brand. This approach isn't just about getting you past the ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems); it's about making a compelling, personal connection with your potential employers. On your resume: 1. 𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭 𝐚 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 tailored to showcase your value in relation to what the employer needs. 2. Back this up with 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐜, 𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝-𝐝𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬, 𝐛𝐮𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐬 that make your qualifications undeniable. 3. With 87% of recruiters using LinkedIn to screen candidates, and other social media platforms playing a significant role, it’s important to present a 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭, 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚. 🚫 𝐀 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: Steer clear of posting negative comments about previous employers, divisive political views, or any inappropriate content that could tarnish your professional image.

ON LEAVE UNTIL 11/1 👋🏻 Helping non-native English speakers build remote careers and land remote jobs ✦ Marketing Manager at Arc.dev ✦ Bilingual Career Coach (ENG/SPA) ✦ Mexican Expat in Asia 🇲🇽🇹🇼
I referred someone for a job at PepsiCo after their cold outreach on LinkedIn. I receive hundreds of DMs and rarely refer someone unless I can personally vouch for them. But this candidate stood out. Here's why: 1/ They were specific about the role they wanted. 2/ They offered to help me, even if I didn't refer them. 3/ The message was clear, with perfect grammar and formatting. 4/ Their message explained why they wanted the job and their offer. 5/ They made it easy to refer them, providing contact info and a sample DM. 6/ They researched my background and my connection to the hiring manager. That's how it's done. Don’t just send a resume with no context. Make it easy for someone to help you. The candidate allowed me to share their DM privately. Want the template? Comment "REFERRAL" and I'll send it. *** ♻ Share this with someone who needs a referral. 🔔 I'm Gina. I help job seekers land great remote jobs.
