The infamous 7 second resume scan 😬
[Comment AUDIT & I’ll send you my free resume audit!]
According to a 2018 study done by Ladders - recruiters only spend 7 seconds reading your resume.
So… why spend so much time writing it?
The answer is because your resume actually serves a few purposes in the hiring process, including:
1. Avoiding ending up in the immediate “no” pile by clearly showing you aren’t missing any of the basic qualifications.
2. Being suggested for an interview by aligning with the job description in terms of responsibilities, skills, and experience.
3. Landing the interview by impressing the hiring team with ~impact~, not just responsibilities.
Trust that your resume is going to be looked at several times by the RIGHT team for you, and you aren’t washing your time by giving them something great to read.
