In the meantime, here are a few suggestions,
> Your Text Resume :
It must be attractively formatted so that it catches the attention of the recruiter and gets short-listed for interview call.
You may go through SAMPLE on the Jobseeker Registration page.
You will find many more, excellent examples, by typing in Google,
> " Resume Sample / Resume Format / Resume Template "
> " Resume Writing Tips "
> Your Raw Score :
This is the total of the weight ages of the " Function / Skill " related keywords found in your Text Resume. You can now see these keywords when you select your Primary Function / Skill in Jobseeker Registration form.
Then use it to " rate " your own resume ( some 22,000 + recruiters around the world are using Resume Rater to rate and arrange resumes in the descending order of Raw Scores assigned.)
If you find your Raw Score is low, you need to re-write your text resume by incorporating additional keywords which truly indicate your experience / expertise. Remember, these keywords will get highlighted and the recruiters are bound to ask you questions about these during the interview ! So, avoid stuffing the resume with irrelevant keywords.
The very first thing a recruiter will notice is your " Function / Skill Graph ", where your " Standing " amongst your Co-Professionals is indicated , thru your Percentile Score.
If Percentile Score is low, most recruiters may not bother to even read your text resume !
If your Raw Score / Percentile Score are low, first improve these by editing (re-writing ) your text resume and then only Blast your Resume.
> Your Seniority :
If you are a very Senior / Highly Experienced executive, you may not want to " Blast your Resume " or even " Apply Online ".
You may like to be very selective / discreet.
To you, I suggest following :
· Without Blasting your Resume, you can download Email ID's of reputed Headhunters ( Recruitment Agencies ), by logging-in on our page ,
Then, email to them your Graphical / Analytical / Customized resume in strict confidence, with instructions, not to forward it to any of their clients without prior consultation with you.
> Look-up http://www.era.org.in/Members.aspx,
Here you will find full contact details of India's most reputed headhunters city-wise , indicating their area of specialization.
Then phone-up the CEO and tell him the kind of opportunity that you are searching. He will be happy to help you.
And one good thing - none of them charge any fees to the candidates ! It is part of their " Code of Conduct ".
If I am not in the office, you can talk to my colleagues,
