    Factually, I did that bolding key phrases on my resume, leading the readers eyes to what “I” want them to see. A couple hiring managers at an engineering/tech career fairs told me that was a big deal for them, because they can stay on point and grasp the person from the paper. It works

    • @harshibar
      @harshibar  3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I would show that through the types of experiences you list in your bullets. For example, when discussing my Software Engineering job, the bullets I wrote mostly described the PM-type work I did (gathering requirements, user shadowing, etc). This way, they will see you have that experience, even if you didn't have the formal title.

    Very helpful video! Curious if you could make a follow-up or add a comment on how you also made the resume ATS friendly? Sometimes making resumes feels like an exercise in keyword stuffing and the good meaty content gets lost in an attempt to keyword stuff and make it past the bots. Thanks again for this video!!!

    Hey Harshibar. Great work here. Liked the celebratory walk. Congratulations!
    A quick question: did any of the recruiters ask you to corroborate the numbers and percentages you used to portray the impact you created in specific roles or projects? TH-cam, I understand. It has a dashboard for visualisation and analysis plus the shareable and publicly viewable videos themselves are proof of concept but, what about other roles or projects. I'm a fresher looking for Product roles hence, I am trying to craft the best resume I can and since I have a lot of numbers that convey a tangible impact, I am on the fence about including them

      Hey! I usually didn't update my resume for each job description, but I did make a few versions of my resume that were tailored to different sectors (startup, FAANG, banks, etc) with content/formatting that suited each. For companies I was excited about, I also used a somewhat boilerplate cover letter and personalized one paragraph to describe my interest in the role.

      I used ‘hours spent’ to measure productivity. So for example, if a workflow went from taking 10 hours to 4 hours, that’s a 60% increase in productivity (if I’m doing my math right). Maybe not the cleanest metric though 🤷🏽‍♀️

    As for PM, I do not think your experience or an ability to solve problems or increase productivity by NN% is important. Why? Your strongest side is your team. Surprise? An ability to get right sides of every team member and direct them to success of your product is what you should do. So, where do you stand in this process? I think you can attract people and it is the strongest quality of your PM skills. People will do the best just to show you how good they are.
