This was an AMAZING video. Concise and very informative. Thank you!
So happy you said "skipped past the 'Who We Are' section" -- I've been feeling guilty for doing that and am glad to know that's what others are doing as well!
NO BS coming from Mrs. Miller. It helps you figure out whether you’re qualified for the role and how to tailor your cover letter and resume to beat the applicant tracking systems (ATS).
Yes! Amy - this is perfection! :)
I have a BS in CS and a BBA in Finance and 8+ years in IT/Tech, Amy! If I lived in Washington, I may have applied for that job you're describing. 😊 You need to be a U.S. Citizen to work for any defense company through the feds contracts.
Just explored your LinkedIn profile after someone mentioned you on a LinkedIn post. Watched the 3rd youtube video. Subscribed. Easy. I like the energy you give off very much. I think you teach/explain very well.

Thank you, Amy! This is great stuff!!
This is really helpful Amy! Thank you for sharing :)
thank you for this deep explanation. this is a video that I am going to revisit every time I am modifying my resume.
Very helpful video. It's helpful to understand the recruiters perspective.
Thank you, Amy! You not only explained what to look for but also gave insight and context to our resume!
Where have you been all my life! LOL - I appreciate your sense of humor and taste in music! Thanks for the great information. I appreciate the concise information and your perspectives.
great info on how to differentiate the sections - BTW - Love the wallpaper Amy!! I've got those same earrings; love them!
🤘every time your intro plays!
Damn! The first part of daily responsibilities was very insightful. Thanks for putting this up! :))
Thank you very much
As a compensation SME, I get it, Amy. Keep doing what you're doing!
Thanks for sharing. I have tried to keep my resume generalized. I will tailor very specifically for top companies I am pursuing.
Early in my career I over used the word "synergy" to highlight that I was team player. 😂 I sounded like a great strategy at the time.
Great job Amy!

BTW as far as your reference to 'Flames on the Side of My Face' - Madeline Kahn is from "Clue"
This video was phenomenal. Learned something new.

It's great to hear that what I did while applying for the last job is literally what you said I would do in this video. Thank you, Mrs. Miller, for confirming the information, I really appreciate that. But the thing I can't understand is that if there are several people who have 100% of the job requirements and you can't communicate with all of them. On what basis you choose the people you communicate with first and who should wait?... Because a month and a half has passed and still my application status is "submitted".

😆I feel your pain. 🤣
AWESOME video!!! I have 2 lingering questions. 1. How do you handle job statements such as "Strong organizational, project management, problem-solving, and analytical skills" or "Self-directed and highly motivated" on a resume? Or do you leave that off and hope for a phone screening to flush it out? 2. If citizenship is asked on all the applications/ATS, is it still necessary to include the words on a resume and where/how?

If citizenship is a knockout question you’re good I would not worry about it. I wouldn’t worry about those words in the JD - resumes are for hard skills, interviews are for soft skills. I’ll do a follow up video next week 😉

Thanks so much. It's been confusing when the JD goes on and on about preferences.@@AmyMiller
Wow, this was super helpful! I was focused on using Chat GPT to highlight the keywords and phrases for me to integrate into my resume but this method is much less time exhaustive. What is your approach on catering your career summary and core competencies to the job posting? Thank you, Amy. I feel much more informed.

I actually have a video on summary vs objective! I like a good summary myself 😂
What do you think about ignoring a BS/BA requirement for non-STEM positions? I get that the degree is totally necessary in something like EE - that would be scary to have someone designing circuits without formal training. But in my world (RevOps), a lot of hiring managers find experience more important. They’ll still put the degree in the JD, but often it’s not a true requirement. I’ve asked a lot of them and only a few are strict about it. Anecdotal I know, but it’s what I’ve found. Curious if you’ve had a different experience.

As someone without a degree myself I push HARD for “or equivalent experience” as a loophole to remain compliant 😉

What goes through your mind when you have a person apply for multiple roles at the same time that you are hiring for, but the applicant possesses 80%+ qualifications for both roles? Does that show lack of career focus, or is it more of a compliment to the company?

I assume they’re genuinely interested in the company 😊 I have a video on this topic too - kzread.info/dash/bejne/fGVkqa6DYbS_nJc.htmlsi=PoZnlpefcMqnVFwT
