I have a little section called "keywords" at the very bottom of my resume, for the convenience of the scanners we used at zylog, who owned brainhunter. --dave On 12/17/24 11:13, William Park via talk wrote:
Yeah, hard part is getting past the scanner. They have so many applications. They aren't going to read them all.
I include both cover letter and resume in one PDF in my application. Cover letter is where I use the same/similar keywords as in the job posts. Resume is pretty much static.
You have to get the a human being. Eg. You see "robotic" a lot. But, if you really drill down, you have "local" robotic task, and you have "external" integration with outside system. So, a human being will be looking for fundamentals, like network skills, reading/writing API, server/client expertise, etc. But, a scanner will be looking for robotic vision, machine learning, AI, etc.
