Yesterday I attended a local job fair and today I attended a virtual job fair hosted by HiConselor. I received alot of good information about what should be in your resume and how it should look. Nowadays most companies use some form of ATS to review your resume to make sure you have what they are looking for. I discovered this article on the internet that explains how the ATS works and how to make your resume ATS friendly. Here is the link https://lnkd.in/gzzrUhYf so you can visit the website for other useful information they have. I also learned that most companies are now wanting you to get some experience which is hard to do, unless you can land an internship. HiCounselor told us that starting Monday you could go to their website and select the projects tab and you can work on any of the projects for free. This will help you get some experience that could help you land a job. I think this is an awsome way to help those of us who have no experience get the experience we need.
