Core Competencies / Signature Strengths / Areas of Expertise...

This are titles I use in a resume for a section that emphasizes skills or "key words". Many job seekers identify these skills, place on their resume but neglect to alter the section based on the terms used in the job description.

You must alter the terms to match the job description or you may score lower in the applicant tracking systems (ATS). No, it is not a pain. It is 2-3 minutes of your time and as far as I am concerned, a mandatory step.

SPECIAL NOTE: I am now taking on speaking engagements to groups about the following subjects:

Resume Writing
Interviewing
Ageism in the Workplace
Career Management
ATS Best Practices
Job Search Strategies

as well as accepting invitations to critique resumes, cover letters and LinkedIn profiles at trade shows, workshops, seminars and various other events. Please contact me via ajbresumes@gmail.com or 415.519.9659 for more details.
