I’m not the biggest fan of technical recruiters, the majority of them are blood sucking morons. Untalented vampires.
However, once you hit a certain employment level they actually become somewhat useful. Meaning they can help elevate your professional career.
I hit that level in my career, after I sold my company, when I had the unfortunate pleasure of busting out the digital wordpad and writing that dreadful resume.
My goal was simple. To create something unique, a resume that stood out from the crowd.
I met this goal, but also during the process I discovered something VERY COOL … a way to trick the recruiters into finding me easier – SEO for resumes.
Recruiters are no different from traditional web searchers as they begin with a search objective, which in their case is a job opportunity, and they then “keyword” search for specific terms but instead of using Google their engine of choice is Monster.com.
My trick? Easy … I paid critical attention to the keywords in my resume and uploaded it to Monster.
It took a few months to get indexed in the job engine, but shortly after I started receiving calls from recruiters. A lot of calls. No joke, even years later to this day – roughly once a week I’m contacted with a job opportunity.
The point? STEAL MY RESUME!
If you are a web designer, web developer, programmer, SEO specialist, IT expert, technologist … whatever … download this resume template, make the information your own (specifically the keyword list of skills on the right hand side), upload it to Monster.com and let the vampires find you!
It’s my gift to you, my fellow webdevr!
