Which resume tips did I find helpful? 1. Understanding the difference between professional and objective summary. 2. How to successfully outline duties with the achievement [Number] metrics 2. Age bias 3. Describing work experience with impact. 4. Include relevant experiences. 5. Never underestimate the power of cover letters! Overall, I found all the tips to be super helpful and insightful. Additionally, as someone with hearing loss, I would love to hear some tips on how those of us, with hearing loss could successfully market ourselves in a virtual interview settings. Please also discuss the different types of job interviews to help understand and prepare for them. Thank you your commitment to our aspirations and successes and for always equipping us with all the tools we need. I look forward to what you will bring to the table this year and, I am hopeful that my comment will inspire new ideas in the next video publication. Happy New Year, Indeed! 😊
This was very informative, but can you maybe show some examples of how a resume summary should look and what a consistent verses and inconsistent resume looks like while sharing these talking points. Some of us are more visual and like examples.
I appreciate finding this video it has taught me a lot. The knowledge I received will help me tremendously and am eager to get started on formatting a new resume. I will go back to what I thought was old school but apparently it's not. I wish I hadn't taken the advice to change it. Thank you so much !! I appreciate you !!
There are a lot of really great videos out there on the topic of resume writing. That said, this is by far the best I have seen. Easy to follow and use. Her understanding of the human psyche shines through. I think, if you watch this, your confidence will increase during this arduous process of job hunting. Mine has, anyway!
Hi Holl, thanks for your absolutely precise and clear tips. I only have 2 blocks to start using them: 1) Were you talking about fill-in form on Indeed or a file which could be uploaded? 2) If you update your online resume on Indeed for some company, will it affect my application to another company? In other words, how to create multiple resumes on Indeed?
Thank you for providing this information. Didn't think I was going to watch the entire list but her eyes and expressions really kept me engaged 👀. Super cute! Oh, describing work without impact and the ATS info was helpful.
The tutorial just listed "Holl - Indeed" at the beginning. Is your name "Holly?" Anyways, I watched your resume tutorial to the end. You are a great speaker and gave good advice. Question: Can someone upload 2 entirely different resumés to Indeed? For example, I have over 35 years work experience teaching English and am always seeking new students. On the other hand, I would also like to upload a resume that shows my 30 years experience working with Mac computers and my desire to help anyone having problems understanding them. Two different careers here. I have googled this scenario and have so far come up empty handed. Can you help? Thanks 🙏! -Rob
Thank you for a great video. Two comments/observations: 01) Please cut down on the up-speak. I know it has become common ground today (as has vocal fry), but it does not sound professional and has the appearance of a lack of confidence or self-esteem, which is the case of most people I've encountered that do it. 02) I disagree with your enhanced version of task listings: "Produced career advice videos", upgraded to "Wrote, presented, and published (12) career advice videos per quarter to support Indeed's mission of helping all people get jobs." I don't think you need to spend valued space giving the reason, or basis, for the work ("Indeed's mission of helping all people get jobs"). This isn't Indeed's resumé. Space may be better utilized indicating the # of subscribers or views in a given timeframe. All-inclusives such as "all", "every", "never", etc do not belong on a resumé. Also, "get jobs"? If you must, "achieve employment" does take more space, but IMO, sounds more professional.
10:06 This makes me so fucking tired of applying for jobs. It takes me quite some time to craft resumes and cover letters that are so closely aligned with the job description (that someone likely passively produced for the company.)
Do you work for Indeed? I’m a audio/video camera operator looking for work. I see this is a Indeed channel! I just subscribed! If so are there job openings for Indeed?
I earned my BA at a foreign university and working on my master's degree at Kansas State University. Should I list my foreign university in my resume? If yes, how to avoid geographic/location/country/race etc. bias?
As a general rule, you should list your bachelor's degree. Nevertheless, there are a few things you can do to mitigate bias. First, be sure to include your master's degree from Kansas State (and it should be listed first). For the graduation date, you can put the anticipated date. For your BA, only include what is generally considered to be the most vital information - BA + area of study, university name, location (city & country for non-US institutions), and graduation date. Here are some more tips on composing the Education section of your resume - indeedhi.re/3nbstoE. -CC
Yes , but indeed only allow one resume, what happened to the "Taylor your resume to the company you are applying"? We should have the option of having several resume oin indeed or uploading one when applying.
Hi. Great insight, thanks for sharing. I'm off to redesign and rewrite my boring CV :) About your advice to include SPECIFIC goals or targets (numbers included!) one may have achieved while working for an employer. Won't that become disclosure of sensitive information about the employer organization? Personal example: Under my management and responsibility, the Tech team reduced the ticket TTR (Time To Resolution) from 3 DAYS to 4 HOURS. My reluctance: In this example, the company I work(ed) for, had a ridiculously high TTR in the past, meaning for lots of internal problems! Shouldn't I think twice before sharing that information with someone? I hope I can get an answer or opinions
Adding in self employment can have many benefits, especially if the work you did directly relates to the jobs you are applying to, or if your self employment was the only work you were doing it at the time and leaving it off would create a significant employment gap on your resume. -CC
Due to the ats system all applicants for all jobs now required a degree in English and lying now then? As most jobs use terminology pretty specific to their own perspective and people with similar experience won’t be applicable
Hey, Leslie! Thanks for watching. Check out this video with our Indeed career coaches for more answers to your questions on ATS: th-cam.com/video/MFjS18K_Kzk/w-d-xo.html
The 8th one doesn’t seem right. Revamping your resume for a specific job every time you apply to another position will make you wanna pull your own hair out.
The entire process is bullshit, man. Not to forget this garbage ATS system that doesn't even do the job properly all because the hiring managers are too lazy to read through a resume.
How to add an additional resume on indeed? I have created a resume but cannot figure out how to add the second one. It allows me just to edit the first resume.
I don't think this advice is indeed specific. I think they're using general tips and so if you want multiple resumes you'll have to actually create multiple versions. So if you were looking in different fields you would have different general resumes. Construction, sales, design, etc. Then upload them individually to each job. It's kinda sick that they recommend something they don't have a feature for. I'm guessing the best way is to have the core stuff on your indeed profile and then upload your resume each time. Example your indeed profile could have all your assessments. Cover letter can be the actual resume.
Doesn't seem like you would apply with your indeed resume ever. Unless you want to use indeed for your main job search. Cutting out all the other stuff and having them in a folder on your Google drive. You could even create different indeed resumes for each field. Download the copy, then leave the official one on there for easy applications.
@@XzctR yea the second option is better but I think using the indeed core keeps your assessments as part of your resumes. If you use your own resume then it wouldn't show all of the indeed assessments you took and the scores
@@quantomrizzics honestly I don't understand what concerns you. Have never heard about scores, just send my resume (pdf file) to everyone on the site and don't care about.
ATS = Awful Talent Scouting. To all the SHRM and TA professionals out there. Don't be lazy and let the AI tools do all the screening work for you. It's the equivalent of just copying the answers to all the odd-numbered questions in the appendix of your precalculus book without showing your work.
I don't know about the US but in the UK the skills section is far more important than your employment history. I mean, it literally lists your key skills, the things employers are looking for. If you don't have the relevant skills the employment history is completely irrelevant. I found the advice in this video a bit dated.
So.. it sounds like we should essentially pretend we're talking to a toddler who is playing hiring manager. ... got it. So.. /why/ didn't they teach /not/ putting things into our own words in school?.... The world is changing, I guess.
Sorry, but I couldn't get past the fist minute of this video because of that awful vocal fry. As someone who trains people to succeed professionally, you should know better.

The tip with only listing 5 skills, I had like 10-15 and it made my resume really long! I narrowed it down to the most important, makes sense, thanks!
Thanks for sharing, Lorie! -CC
