Eight Reasons Recruiters Never Call You
I loved this post from the Recruiting.com Blog Swap. You submitted a beautiful resume (so you think) but no one ever called you back. What's the deal? Below are some highlights, but be sure to check out the full story. Not only does Jim tell us why no one called, but he give us advice on how to conquer that issue.
1. Too many responses and not enough time. One advertised job can bring as many as three hundred responses in less than three days. It is logistically impossible for any one recruiter to reply personally to every applicant.
Job-seeker Advice: Network your way into the company. This is the best way to circumvent the tidal wave of resumes recruiters face daily.
2. There is a relevancy factor. Many resumes received are not even in the ballpark of what is being advertised. Simply put, some applicants are tossing their resume against the proverbial wall and hoping it sticks. These types of efforts are immediately recognized and consequently ignored.
Job-seeker Advice: Make sure your resume is accented with keywords significant to the job you are applying for. (ONLY add those terms relevant to your experience.) I would also suggest a cover letter that extols your professional virtues pertinent to the employer.
Feel better? Great, now go read the rest of the posting and tell me what you think of it.

Two blondes were going to Disneyland when they came to a fork in the road. The sign read: "Disneyland Left."
So they went home.

Not only do they try to rip you off, they send your email out and you get a ton of junk mail.
