Resume trends for 2023 – an useful article for your information

I do resume writing sessions. In these sessions, we’re explicitly focused on writing details of experience and structuring your resumes. Writing them in a way to make your resume more impactful on Hiring Managers, Recruiters and normal everyday people. My feeling is you keep it simple since you have two minutes to get the interest of a Recruiter’s or Hiring Manager’s eyes.

Here’s a very succinct and to the point summary for you:

• If you are a person with 7+ years under your belt then your resume should be focused on your career wins. Think STAR method for writing your examples – keep it simple but point out explicitly the scope of work and the resulting impact on the companies/teams you worked for.
• if you have less than 7 years experience, focus on your career progression and the types of work you’ve been doing. The end result is a more task oriented resume, but it will identify your progression of responsibilities and experience much more clearly.

Anyways, here’s the article on Fast Company. It’s good reading and if you’re looking for 1:1 help on restructuring your LinkedIn and resume, book a session.
