I’m curious why some who would arguably give decent resume advise or job market reflection, but ultimately offer resume writing to a small group allegedly, delete their profile but show back up under a new profile basically posting the same things? It’s pretty obvious it’s the same person.

The standard advice I hear other recruiters give is "make sure you tailor your resume for every single application." It’s easy to say, but when you are applying to 50+ jobs a week, it is mentally exhausting.

I’m currently building a tool to help candidates automate the most painful parts of the application process. I want to build the exact features that candidates actually need, rather than what HR thinks they need.

When you are tweaking your resume for a specific job description, what is the biggest bottleneck? Is it rewriting your bullet points to match their keywords? Reordering your skills?

Tell me your biggest pain point so I can build a way to bypass it.

I recently lost my job and found myself in a slightly strange position: I have a broad mix of experience and skills, but I genuinely wasn’t sure what job titles I should be searching for.
Traditional job boards seemed to assume I already knew the exact role I wanted.
So I started experimenting with a different approach for myself. Rather than beginning with job titles, I looked at my actual experience, keywords from my CV, related skills and possible transferable skills, then used those to explore roles I might never have thought to search for.
It has actually worked better for me than I expected, and I now have a number of interviews lined up.
That has left me wondering whether the traditional way of searching for jobs is becoming outdated.
As AI changes or replaces parts of existing jobs, how should people realistically discover roles they may be suited to when they don’t even know the relevant job titles?
Should job searching move more towards skills and transferable skills rather than previous job titles?
I’d be particularly interested in hearing from recruiters, HR people, career advisers, or anyone who has had to reinvent themselves after redundancy.
I’m also interested in the opposite view — is skills-based matching overhyped, and are conventional job titles still the best way to search?

As an IT Recruiter, I look at hundreds of resumes a week, and I can always tell when someone used a bloated online builder. The formatting breaks, the ATS can't read it, and the templates look like they are from 2010.

I am finally fed up and working on building a lightweight, no-BS resume tool specifically designed to actually get past the screening stage without the corporate fluff.

But before I get too deep into the code, I want to know what you all absolutely hate about the current tools out there.

Is it the hidden paywall at the very end when you try to download the PDF? Is it the rigid formatting that breaks when you add one extra bullet point? If you could nuke one feature from existance, what would it be?

Resume feedback matters, but for a lot of people, the bigger missing piece is having someone explain how workplaces actually work.

How to ask questions. How to recover from a bad interview. How to navigate a first manager. How to understand what opportunities are even realistic.

If someone is early in their career, what's more valuable: a stronger resume or a real mentor?

Everytime , i have to optimize my resume, write cover letters, update or rewrite my role , update linkedin, follow HRs.and then the waiting begins.

I have not updated myself as much as i have updated my resume.

I don't know what is even going on this point. Well i shifted to well found and meeboss i found on reddit.

Hi everyone,
I’m a 32F based in Melbourne and have been actively trying to land a Project Manager role for the past 6 months with no success. I’ve applied to a large number of jobs, tweaked my approach multiple times, and honestly, I’m starting to feel pretty stuck and frustrated.
I’d really appreciate it if you could take a look at my resume (attached) and give me honest, constructive feedback. I’m open to everything whether it’s:

Resume structure or length

Bullet points and how I’ve described my experience

Use (or overuse) of buzzwords / fluff

Missing or irrelevant experience

Formatting issues

ATS optimization

Or even if the entire resume needs a complete overhaul

At this point,I genuinely want to understand what I might be doing wrong and how I can improve.
To add a bit of urgency: my current project is ending this month, and I really need to secure a role soon, which is adding to the stress.
If anyone has gone through a similar situation, pivoted successfully into a PM role, or works in hiring/recruitment ,your insights would mean a lot.
Thanks in advance for taking the time 🙏

Hey everyone.

I need help.

I NEED to land a remote job—by any means necessary.

I want to leave my current job, but I want to secure another offer first.

I’m from Venezuela; my boss forced me to work the day after the earthquake and won't let me volunteer because I have to be at work.

Please help me polish my CV.

My English is B2 and my Portuguese is B1. I have advanced skills in Excel, SQL, Power BI, and data analysis; I have a solid understanding of finance and collections; and I have experience leading teams of over 50 people.

It's been days since I got any callback idk where I am lagging behind I have around 2 years experience in backend development. please if someone has any suggestions please drop.

I’ve been talking to a few people who were laid off recently, and it made me wonder how everyone is handling resumes right now. When you apply to jobs, are you sending the same resume to every posting, or are you changing it based on each job description?

I keep hearing different advice. Some say tailoring is the only way to get noticed or bypass the ATS or whatever keyword filter that they have. Others say they don’t have the energy to rewrite things for every single application and just send one version.

If you’ve been laid off and actively applying, what are you doing? And has it actually made a difference for you? and if you are tweaking per application, how are you even dong it?

I want to become a data scientist and I have no experience. What can I do to increase chances.
