Tips for Instantly Improving your job search


Profile Are Not Read On Paper Anymore

Most organizations are not receiving paper resumes and when they get them via email or their application system, they don’t print them. So, expect your profile to be read on a computer screen. This means you have to format your documents in a way that makes screen-scanning easy.  By using Resume Blaster you will have a standard format which is uniform and a readable format.

Web & Social Networking Has Replaced the Resume

Recruiters are now using web and networking sites to searches to find talent, instead of paying for a talent databases like they used to do. In fact, many companies wants new application go through a Google screening process. That means the first page of your Google results matter much more than they ever did before during a job search and by using Resume Blaster and RBID Link you will be the first one in the results.

Summary Is Enough

Profile is used mostly in the screening process while actual decisions are made after interviews. There are so many candidates competing for each job, HR people or hiring managers often scan resumes very briefly. Researchers say that the average time on a resume is 30 seconds.

Social Profile Is a Must

Social profile, testimonials, or recommendations seriously reduce the perceived risk of you as a candidate.

Relationships First, Profile Second

Profiles are not used as introductory documents much these days. In fact, “Send me your profile” is often an afterthought after an introduction is made. And if an introduction is made online, then your online profile offers much more information than a resume.

What They Want


In years past, a profile or job application was focused on what the job seeker wanted. This is not true anymore. Now an application, profile or cover letter must speak to what value the seeker can bring to the organization. How can you bring value to the company and how soon can the company realize that value.
