What can job seekers do to stand out to potential employers? Job seeking can make many people feel like they’re being ignored or overlooked. They’ll send out resumes or emails in hopes of receiving at least a message back, but they are often met with silence. What should job seekers do to get noticed during their job search? Is there something they can do to increase their odds of hearing back from potential employers? What should job seekers know about the silence they usually encounter after submitting resumes or applications? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below. We’ll be covering this topic in an upcoming edition of #GetHired (https://lnkd.in/ghnews), which is a weekly newsletter for job seekers. ?? : Getty ??? : Andrew Seaman

My best advice would be to: 1. Research the company - network to understand what they are trying to accomplish 2. Use your company research to help portray what value add YOU will bring to the organization 3. Back up your value add by documenting your past achievements in your cover letter and resume (make sure your resume isn't like a generic job description for the role - tailor it to the specific job opening) - what sets yourself apart from the other candidate? 4. Be authentic and yourself 5. Lastly, don't be afraid to jump out of your comfort zone. Even if you don't have all the experience requested but can demonstrate your success and how you are already utilizing the skills and competencies to be successful, apply for the job. Don't get discouraged if you don't hear back or you are not selected. Your time will come, this just wasn't the opportunity for you. A better one will come along when the time is right!
