HIGHLIGHTED KEYWORDS

HIGHLIGHTED KEYWORDS

A frequent  " Resume  Writing Tip "  for  jobseekers is to judiciously incorporate in their resumes, keywords relevant to their knowledge / skills.

No justification required for this.

But how can jobseekers get the HR Managers to " notice " those keywords as soon as they open the resume ? Each resume will likely get no more than 5 seconds to make a first good impression.

Of course, if HR Managers are using  " Resume  Rater " recruitment software to ' rate ' all incoming resumes then there is no problem.

Not only will keywords get highlighted automatically, but even the resumes will get ranked in the descending order of  " relevance ", with the best resumes topping the list !

I would not be surprised if many jobseekers are themselves rating their own resumes before sending to  recruiters !

After all , " Resume Rater " can be freely downloaded from nearly all websites listed on first page of Google search results !
