Job search tip: Apply first, overthink later.

[ATS Ready @ats_ready]

Sharp, concrete tip. Visa status, notice period and availability are exactly the details that end up at the bottom of a CV or left out entirely, and when a posting says "immediate joiners preferred" it's telling you plainly what it cares about first.

It's also a good example of a wider habit: matching what your CV says to what a specific posting actually asks for. Every posting has its own must-haves and its own wording for them, and it's easy to skip the ones that feel too obvious to write down.

Availability is the part you can fix by hand in a minute. For the rest of the posting, this is what ATS Ready does: it compares your resume with a job description and highlights keyword gaps, so instead of one number you get the specific terms from the posting that are missing or worded differently on your resume. https://t.co/zh3AvqIIjs

📌 Job search tip for this week:

A lot of UAE roles right now are marked "immediate joiners preferred." If you're actively applying, put your visa status, notice period, and availability right at the top of your CV or in your very first message to a recruiter.

Small detail, big impact — it's often the difference between getting shortlisted the same week or getting skipped over entirely.

Agree with this for the roles he's describing. No HR layer, no screen, a founder or partner reading between meetings: the resume is a one-page pitch for a distracted human, and volume just adds to a full inbox. The smallest-room idea fits that world.

The other side worth naming: most roles aren't that world. The larger share of postings still route through an ATS and a keyword screen, and there the resume has a reader before any human. For that reader, well-written isn't the bar. The resume has to speak the posting's own vocabulary, the specific terms it uses for the skills it wants, not a polished synonym.

That second case is what ATS Ready is for. It compares your resume with a job description and highlights keyword gaps, so instead of one number you get the specific terms from the posting that are missing or worded differently on your resume. https://t.co/zh3AvqIIjs

Two different games. Worth knowing which one you are playing before you write the resume.

[Rahul Shiv @raul_gad96498]

My two cents on landing non-pipeline jobs. Startups, VC, Chief of Staff, founding associate, first product hire etc. Not exhaustive, just what I noticed.

Mostly no HR, no ATS, no keyword screen. Which makes it less job hunting and more outbound sales. You're the product, nobody asked for the pitch, and the buyer's inbox is full. So the resume gets written for a human buried in work reading it while doing something else.

The quantity game is definitely not the way to go. Having run that campaign for about a year during my second year of my MBA. Here's what finally worked. I call it the smallest room.

[ATS Ready @ats_ready]

Seven months out after 15 years in QA is a rough stretch, and putting this out in the open takes some nerve. Hope someone in this thread takes you up on it. One small thing that may help while you keep applying: studios describe the same QA work in different words, so it's worth checking each posting against your resume rather than sending the same version everywhere. ATS Ready compares your resume with a job description and highlights keyword gaps, so instead of one number you get the specific terms from the posting that are missing or worded differently on your resume. https://t.co/zh3AvqIIjs

[ATS Ready @ats_ready]

Reading 6 and 7 together is the point: a score only means something when it's measured against the specific job you're applying to, and customizing means closing the gaps that measurement shows. ATS Ready compares your resume with a job description and highlights keyword gaps, which is a practical way to do both tips for each application rather than once: https://t.co/rCQuMaZ0Nv

[Jobs with Aramide @AramideOyekunle]

Working on your resume? Don’t miss these must-know tips before hitting 'Apply':

1) Font size matters
2) Skip the full address, ID number or marital status
3) Avoid tables, symbols or fancy fonts
4) Show your achievements, not just responsibilities
5) No "I", "me", "we" or "my"
6) Always check your ATS score - aim for 80% & above
7) Customize your resume for every job

[ATS Ready @ats_ready]

So treat the list as a checklist to compare against, not a script to paste. Open the posting, note the terms it repeats, and check which of them are missing or worded differently on your resume. ATS Ready compares your resume with a job description and highlights keyword gaps, so you can see that difference for each role instead of guessing: https://t.co/rCQuMaZ0Nv

Career Modelling Session Recap

Today’s Career Modelling Session under the SheBuilds Artificial Intelligence Fellowship focused on helping fellows understand how to effectively present their skills and experience to potential employers.

[ATS Ready @ats_ready]

Sorting out "another job or build my own thing" first is the right order, because the resume you need for each is different. One practical thing while it still stings: pick one real posting you would actually want, and rewrite the top third of your resume to that description's language for the role, not the whole career. That's the version that gets read. ATS Ready can tailor your resume to a job description, which takes some of the grind out of doing that per role: https://t.co/zh3AvqIIjs

[The Random Recruiter @randomrecruiter]

If you’re underpaid but stay because you “like the team,” that’s what I like to call a loyalty tax.

Your company isn’t paying you less because they hate you. But you can bet they're paying you the least amount it takes to keep you there.

You might be at the same company for 5+ years but only getting yourself ~2% annual increase which doesn't beat inflation.

But if you kept a pulse on the market, a move in between would’ve been closer to 20%+.

Now, of course it's not all about the money.

Sometimes where your TC lacks, you have superb benefits, work life balance, convenient work arrangements like remote, hybrid, whatever the arrangement is.

But if money is your top motivation at this point of your career, chances are you're not going to get it by staying at the same place.

One answer from the job-seeker side: the experience is there, but the resume describes duties in the old employer's vocabulary while the posting asks in the hiring company's vocabulary. A screener moving fast, or a filter that never reads for meaning, doesn't translate between the two, so a qualified person reads as a near miss. The fix is unglamorous: where it's true, use the posting's own requirement language. ATS Ready compares your resume with a job description and highlights keyword gaps. https://t.co/zh3AvqIIjs

I think they'll be more useful than another list of "10 résumé tips."

[ATS Ready @ats_ready]

Add those six numbers up and it's roughly 69,000 experienced people re-entering the market in the same year, many of them aiming at the same postings. That changes the math on every application: the competition isn't the job description, it's everyone with your title who applied the same week. One generic resume doesn't survive that. Match each application to the specific posting and treat the tailoring as the work, not the afterthought. ATS Ready can tailor your resume to a job description. https://t.co/zh3AvqIIjs

Oracle leads 2026 tech layoffs with 21,000 job cuts. 📉

Amazon follows at 17,267, Dell at 11,000.

Meta: 10,400. Microsoft: 4,800. PayPal: 4,760.

AI is generating headlines about efficiency, and pink slips are the fine print. 😬💼

That last part is the quiet one. After 15-20 years in one place, your title and your actual work have usually drifted apart, and the resume you'd write from memory describes the job you were hired for, not the one you were doing last quarter. A practical way in: pull the last three years of projects out before you touch formatting, and write each one against a live posting you'd actually apply to, so the language matches what a screener is scanning for.

[ATS Ready @ats_ready]

Being one of the most competent engineers in the room and still getting zero interviews off a full spreadsheet is a brutal combination, and it isn't a verdict on you. When a posting draws far more applications than anyone will actually read, the first pass is volume management, and volume management is bad at recognizing a strong senior engineer who doesn't match the exact stack in the ad. That's a market failure, not a resume failure. Enrolling in something new at 50 while carrying all of that takes real nerve. Hope the next door opens faster than this one has.

[Trilingual HR @Agbojojolaoluwa]

ATS (Applicant Tracking System) systems scan your resume for specific keywords before a human recruiter ever looks at it. Most resumes get rejected by machines, not people. If your resume does not contain the right keywords, you will not make it past the first filter.

One or two pages is a good rule, and the harder question is what stays in and what goes for each opening. Live feedback from a reviewer who can ask "why is this here?" is hard to replace, so if you are near Ashburn on Sept. 15, the Resume Roadshow is worth the trip. Once you have a version you like for a specific role, ATS Ready keeps saved jobs and their tailored resumes together. https://t.co/zh3AvqIIjs

A free webinar from a county treasurer's office is exactly the kind of help that is easy to overlook.

If you want a second look between sessions, ATS Ready compares your resume with a job description and highlights keyword gaps. https://t.co/zh3AvqIIjs
