Business Development Manager at TEKsystems/Aerotek
August 2005 - March 2010
TEKsystems and Aerotek are both national staffing and recruiting companies; Aerotek is the largest privately-held staffing company with annual revenue of more than $6 billion.
Working for TEKsysytems and Aerotek, my job was to help corporate clients find skilled workers to join their workforces. My job was to recruit and find people who would work for these companies. I reviewed hundreds of resumes each and every week. My clients would review the resumes I sent them and would then make a decision on who to interview.
Working directly with hiring managers and HR managers, I learned what they liked and didn't like to see on resumes. I learned about formats that worked, and ones that didn't. Most importantly, this job taught me what job winning resumes look like. After several years, I learned that all job winning resumes contain 6 key elements.
At www.PerfectResumeAZ.com, we used these 6 key elements to help create a proprietary process that we use to create all of our resumes.
