Resumes I know that there are not people.
Most people think the right way to spend your time.
And you know what they're really important.
They're important for a couple of reasons.
The first reason is the simple reason which is that presenting yourself powerfully on this piece of
paper or in a PDA is still really important when your resume gets to the right person.
Even if you go through some sort of automated system or you have a friend at the company they're still
going to ask you for a resume.
And it's important that you present yourself powerfully on that document.
Now the other reason the second reason that resumes are becoming increasingly important is that when
you put these resumes into things like applicant tracking systems or eight yeses that's what human resource
departments often have you fill out when you apply for a job.
Your resume is basically going to be parsed up by all these basic software packages.
And then it's going to be analyzed and things like that.
So your resume needs to be both powerful for people who are actually reading it so that they think oh
this person looks good.
I trust them and you're going to find out more about that coming up.
And also to have those keywords in there so that when your resume goes into a software package which
is then analyze the data is then analyzed as a part of assessing your candidacy that you come up in
the good category you come in for interviews and things like that.
