Find The Real Job Criteria To Make Your Unemployment Search Easier

You'll be shocked to learn that you're using the wrong job criteria to tailor your resume and prepare for interviews.

The criteria you use look real ... but they're not.

Here are 3 reasons the job criteria you currently use on your resume and for interview prep slow your unemployment job search:

1. You're Using The Published Criteria In Job Descriptions: In employers large enough for an HR person, the HR person/recruiter/HR department writes the job description, for the purpose of protecting the company from lawsuits or government actions. These are broad descriptions of many similar jobs for different departments, locations, products, projects, businesses, and managers. But notice who isn't involved? The hiring manager.
2. The Real Criteria Are Supplied By The Hiring Manager: Hiring managers communicate their individual current needs to the recruiter, sending them a list of what they really want in a candidate, with at least 50% different criteria than what was in the published job description. Recruiters search candidates meeting criteria supplied by the hiring manager, not the job description.
3. If You're Not Customizing Your Resume To Include The Real Criteria, Your Resume Stays Buried: When you're sending customized resumes, or don't use the real criteria supplied by the hiring manager, it looks like you're not even trying. The interviews you do get this way, are almost always low-quality interviews offering the lowest chances you'll get hired.

If you're not using the real criteria, it will drastically reduce the number of interviews you get. And you'll get the lowest quality of interviews, that aren't intended to choose the candidate the employer will hire. Plus, you'll look like the wrong fit, when you don't know what the hiring manager really needs.

So how are you supposed to find the real job criteria, if they aren't on the job ad?
