Jobspin.cz Job Fair Powered by Prague.TV – October 2016
In the morning, the job seekers could find out how to Create Career Success from Pepper de Callier, bestselling author of 3 books on leadership and personal development. Later, Recruiting Executives from CDK Global explained how to pursue a Career with More Colour. The last seminar was held by Paul Myers who was giving a lecture on What’s Wrong With Me? Why Don’t I Get Responses to My Job Applications?.
Paul Myers is an experienced recruiter and General Manager at People Matter. At the conference, he described general mistakes that are done by many while sending their job applications. Some of those mistakes are funny and not noticeable; however, they might play an important role in career development.
Let’s start with reasons why candidates don’t receive any response to their job application. Here is the list of three most common situations.
- Application Responses – Imagine the time it takes just to send a template email message to 200 candidates who didn’t suit the criteria. Some of the big companies don’t have an automated system and their recruiters have to deal with this.
- Some recruiters don’t like to tell bad news, according to the theory no news is better than bad news.
- Sometimes, recruiters are too lazy to look at your CV. Let’s be honest, if your CV doesn’t have the right key words they don’t spend their time to look it through.
For some people it is hard to accept the truth of not getting a response, nevertheless there is no reason to panic. Paul gave useful advice on how to get noticed and get a call back.
- Think twice before you send your job application to a company. Pay attention to details such as required skills, experience and to the actual job position’s description. For example, if a candidate sends a resume to the job offer that requires 5 years of experience as a senior IT manager, but he or she is a recent graduate, they won’t get a call back.
- Key words play an important role, don’t forget about them. As it was mentioned previously, recruiters will not take a look at your CV if it doesn’t match what they are looking for.
- Always write a cover letter, even if it is not required. You will gain a good chance to be noticed and get an offer for another job position. But, be careful, don’t send the same cover letter to everyone.
Every guest received an Exhibition Guide booklet including information about companies who came looking for the new employees (available for download below).
