One thing I have noticed in the online recruiting industry: resume titles are important and often overlooked. When using an online resume builder, it is best to name your resume for two reasons:

  1. It helps keep them organized for you
  2. It helps Employers identify your qualifications

Many times, Employers need a tip as to what kind of candidate you are. Recruiters will often use the resume title to determine whether or not to screen your document. If you think of the resume title as your headline and treat it with importance, you will increase your chances of getting the call for an interview.

If you want to get the inside track on your onlinine job search, DegreedJobs.net can help you. We have complied an entire library of articles and tips to get you through the toughest parts of your campaign. And, it is all accessible right here.

So, let me know what you think…what articles do you want to see? More stuff on resumes, networking, interviewing? What information would be most helpful to you? Drop us a line…

Have a great one!

We just wrapped up a great couple of days in Sacramento, CA for the annual League of California Cities Expo. We talked to a lot of city HR managers who are in dire need of degreed engineers and tech professionals. Reps from Rialto, Huron, Irvine, San Jose, and Sacramento all said they need qualified people.

I can tell you that working for a municipal government is a pretty good gig. They tend to pay well and you can’t beat the benefits package. Anyway, we made a lot of good contacts and even had a little fun…be sure to check out all of our posted City jobs at DegreedJobs.com!

C-Ya next time…….

I know I have been gone awhile, but I have some very good resons! OK, maybe laziness isn’t a good reson; but, we have been working. In case you didn’t noticed, we have completely upgraded our job board DegreedJobs.com.

We had our tech people put in some pretty cool features like streamlined resume builders, advanced maping functions, and an interactive FAQ page. What you will not find is a bunch of full page pop-ups and annoying “work-from-home” scams; just great, high-paying, full-time employment opportunities.

So, be sure to check out the new DegreedJobs.com!

Happy Hunting!
