What is your current situation right now?

Job seekers also get confused about: including an objective (don't use a summary instead), how far back to go (last 10–15 years only), hobbies (skip unless directly relevant), listing every skill (no, only those matching the job), freelance work (list it as a job with "(Contract)" next to title), references (never include or say "available upon request"), using the same action verbs (vary them try "built," "cut," "launched"), mismatched job titles (use real title + clarifying line like "equivalent to manager"), salary history (never include), and whether to resubmit after a typo (yes, immediately with apology and corrected file).

Are you stuck in the endless cycle of applying and never hearing back? I see it every day: ✅ Tailored cover letters ✅ Dozens of applications ✅ “We’ll keep your resume on file” The job search is exhausting and too often, the real culprit isn’t you. It’s your resume. Most resumes get only 6 seconds of attention before a recruiter decides “yes” or “no.” If yours isn’t clear, results-driven, and ATS-friendly, it doesn’t matter how qualified you are. That’s where I come in. I help job seekers turn their resumes into powerful marketing tools that actually open doors. Whether you need: ✅ A complete rewrite ✅ Keyword optimization for applicant tracking systems ✅ A clean, professional format ✅ Help translating your experience into achievements (not just duties) I’ve got you. Let’s get you more interviews not more silence. Comment “RESUME” or DM me, and let’s talk about where you’re stuck.

The 3 things tech recruiters look for in the first 10 seconds Recruiters spend an average of 6–10 seconds on a first resume scan. In that time, they're looking for three things and three things only. 1. Current role and company They want to know: Is this person currently working in a relevant role? Make your current position clear at the top. 2. Years of relevant experience They're mentally checking a box. If the role requires 5+ years, they need to see it immediately. A summary line like "Senior Software Engineer with 7 years of full-stack experience" does the work for them. 3. Key technologies They're scanning for their must-have keywords. If the job requires Python and AWS, those need to be visible in the top third of your resume not buried on page two. Quick test: Open your resume. Look at the top third. Can you spot all three of these things in under 10 seconds? If not, you're losing opportunities before they start. Your turn: What's one of these three that your resume could improve on? Drop it below and I'll share a quick fix.
