MOST of the time that works for me for finding a job or contract. But I admit, right now I am having a problem cause I am trying to get to the next level of pay, and so far, it isn't working out.

When you look an an ad for a position, note the skills/abilities that are listed first, and extract from your expanded Resume the 1 or 2 items that match the requirements of the position you are applying for.

There have been times where I started to do this and would see a job posted up on LinkedIn or Indeed (plus other job boards) and I would see a job I think i’m perfect for…I apply and hear nothing. So I would just double check the website and look to see if the post is there too and more cases it’s not. As being in my late 40s I hate how hard it is to find work.

It looks like the schools have done this- deliberately. I am not happy about having to go back to work but I started 3 businesses and fell too much behind inflation for this year. Vowed I would never work for anyone else again.

Very useful. I have submitted applications only to hear that the job was filled or no longer open. In addition, if there are any edits to the job posting, it resets the job posting. Let's say there is a Business Analyst job posted. 200 applications come in. The next week, the employer changes the title to Business Analyst II, all 200 applications are tossed out. I also am seeing among my experienced friends, they are not considered at all for jobs because they have too much experience. I have 20+ yrs of experience and time and again I am hearing "this is a junior role" even thought the listing says mid-level. But don't call it ageism!

One of those other programs, which in general I see recommended significantly less often than the others, was marked as required experience. That commonly used program? Not listed. This other other program? Required. Since I hadn't used this program (to scale, a friend had only ever used it in high school), Indeed didn't let me apply because I didn't have experience with - for emphasis - an acceptable tertiary _alternative_ for a program that they don't _require_, but _prefer_ experience for.

Get a number and call. It's easier than ever to find the number of the manager or higher up you need. Don't sell yourself, just call and enquire about the position. If it's an actual job, they will have someone call you back or even talk with you then and there. When you do apply, they already know you. This is how we did it in the 80s and 90s and it still works. Jobs are about people, not pieces of paper or application forms. Connect with a human and you leapfrog over your competitors. Back then it took serious work to find direct numbers but now they are there on the internet. Make the technology work for you instead of the other way round.

Right on! That's my conclusion. Applying online is really nasty because it provides the illusion what you're doing some thing useful, when in reality, you're just wasting your time.

You actually make a lot of sense.

You're welcome! Yes, it can be frustrating.

I've never used Indeed nor Linkedin before, but what you just advised is exactly what I was planning to do.

Thanks, valuable Information

This a good tip. Thank you very much.

That is good, I have posted lot of CVs but not answer yet.

I agree that Linkedin has to improve the job search, and the following of the applications. Also I agree that many job position are not active in linkedin. You can see the same positions posted again and again.

It's also worth mentioning that LinkedIn and Indeed use AI to pick applicants, rather than humans. It looks for certain key words in your applications. You may be well more qualified than one person for a job, but if you don't have one key word that they do, it will automatically throw out your application. I have had an immensely difficult time finding work, even when "every company was desperate for people" a few years ago, and I have a ton of experience and am also a veteran. This video has great advice. Indeed and LinkedIn can be useful tools to find jobs, but shouldn't be your only source to find work.

Key word screening has nothing to do with AI. Employers have been doing it past 20 years.

True. Keywords are very important, but that's not what this video is about.

Excellent. Thanks

I applied for a job through LinkedIn and then I had a contact at that Company. I asked if they could let me know. They said the job had already been filled but it was still listed on LinkedIn. If I wouldn’t have emailed my contact I would have thought the position was still available. Very frustrating

Thanks for the valuable information.

The problem with this is that all the job postings are through recruiters and rarely tell you what the real company is for my field. I think the recruiters try pretty hard to not tell you the company, because they don't want you doing this where they wouldn't get the commission.

This is true. Some recruiters can be very effective, as long as you remember that they work for their client, not you.
