How to Read a Job Description (According to a Real Recruiter)
If you want to get more job interviews, you need to learn how to read a job description for the best chance of knowing exactly what a company is looking for. From there, you can read between the lines and have a leg up in understanding whether a job is worth applying for-and whether or not you need to be 100% qualified in order to apply.

We hope to have more extensions released in the future!
I really enjoy these videos! If there is a section that is not highlighted and it sounds really important - example - navigate through complexity, should we include something relevant ?
Thanks for the video. Could you show using a few specific examples of job types, such as, research scientists, director of technology, etc.? Thanks.
