- Show respect for the reader's time. Sometimes we scan 10-15 resumes a day and can see clear patterns, repetitive marketing pitch, lofty unsubstantiated claims. Unserstand that others applying for the job have very similar resumes and you need to be more direct and stand out from the pack. The job poster's BS detector is fairly finetuned and can quicky pick out BS from true merit.
- What draws my attention is humility and the resumes that speak directly to me. Like a resume narrating a coherent career story.
- Show some solid experience in the core technologies requested in the job posting.
This much is usually enough to prompt me to give someone a call and then know their story and cross reference it with what the resume said and also know more about them.
