With 15+ years extensive experience working on the largest projects in Australia, Simon was looking for a permanent job in Perth, in order to be able to spend more time with his family and had been submitting applications through Alcoa’s talent pool for over 2 years. However, Alcoa regularly receives hundreds of applications and, despite Simon’s strong professional background, his resume was not getting past Applicant Tracking Systems that are looking for specific keywords.
After a thorough review of his old CV, we have done a complete makeover and added appropriate keywords to ensure Simon’s resume would pass the recruiting software and get the attention of hiring managers.
After Simon put his new resume through the system, it immediately went to the right person and within a week he received a call from the recruitment team. We have also assisted him with interview preparation, which was a success, and he finally got a long-awaited job offer.
