An effective use of a Resume

August 19, 2025

The end of the CV has been predicted for a while now. Despite new formats and hiring trends, it remains central to how most careers begin.

Writing an effective CV is less about liking it and more about leveraging it. Here is how you do it. 🤙🏼

A job search can stall for lots of reasons. But there are moments where #momentum either builds or dies. This one's for job hunters who want to stay in control. And for anyone who partners with and supports them #jobsearch #hiring #recruitment

Hopefully, my video last week was super clear about the need to establish a “new normal” for job hunting. More often than not, it will be too late when you get to see a job posting. So please do more, better, and sooner. Here is how I suggest you go about it, in actual practice. #jobsearch #claude #cowork #ai #tech #recruitment #careers #signals

⏰ Every job ad you've ever applied to was already late. The decision to hire was made weeks, perhaps months, before the post went live. 👏🏼 Marketers have been using buying/selling signals for a long while now. There's no reason job seekers can't build a similar system to get to that job first. #jobads #jobsearch #hiringsignals #careers Extend Consulting

🤷🏻‍♀️ Sending out applications and hearing nothing back? You might be playing "blindfold darts" 🎯 The algorithm doesn't know you. Job ads are often written to a role ideal. And yet most job seekers keep firing off applications hoping something sticks. There's a smarter way. Watch This 👇

$400. Two suits. No contacts. Here's how a single lunch changed everything when I migrated to Australia and what it taught me about one the most undervalued assets in your professional life.

This year we have been refining the way to attend the demands of our clients and ensure we elevate our candidates and contractors care. Sustained results will show us if we are focusing on the right areas. As we looked for an "edge", a "reset"; the insights from the people we depend on and we trust as a business, told us in unequivocal terms to concentrate in a few fundamentals to underpin any changes. This is what they shared with us. I reckon this will be useful for you too, whether you are in #jobsearch or #hiring mode.

When it’s raining, you can’t fix the roof. When the sun is out, you don’t need to. Sound familiar? 👀 Watch this if you’re serious about your career. 🎯

Everyone is frustrated with hiring right now and it's quite easy to assign blame. It might not be what you think. Here's my take

Most job seekers see applying for jobs as a ‘press submit and wait’ game. The ones who end up being remembered? They do something very few do. I've spent years in recruitment watching the same pattern play out. Being memorable has very little to do with having a perfect CV. I'll tell you exactly what separates the candidates who get to have multiple job-related conversations from the ones who don't. #jobsearch #recruitment #jobapplications Extend Consulting

As a recruiter, I spend a lot of time thinking about where work is going, including mine of course. The loudest narrative right now: #AI is eliminating jobs, but what I’m actually seeing is something more interesting! People leaning into AI and #tech in general are quickly differentiating themselves…. #jobsreinvented #careers #hiring #talent
