This week I take you behind-the-scenes into one of our office hours discussions.
Tailoring your resume to align with the job description is critical for success in job applications.
I teach how to thoroughly analyze a job description to grasp the specific pain points and challenges faced by the hiring manager.
By identifying repeated keywords and themes, you can effectively speak to those pain points as you create a resume that truly addresses the need.

This week, we have something for both sides of the table, whether you're interviewing for your next job or interviewing candidates for your next hire.
Navigating the interview process can feel like a minefield. How do you follow up? When should you follow up? Have I been ghosted?
And if you're interviewing candidates, you also have a lot to keep in mind, like creating a great candidate experience and running a data-driven process.
Carina and Alison chatted about all things interviewing this week, plus how to answer the all-important question, "If you were a tree, what type would you be."
