Don’t Beg For A Job, Companies Don’t Hire Out Of Pity Or Bad Financial Situations

Human Resources Specialist Reports That the Practice of Handing Out Resumes to Get a Job Is a Harm That Has the Opposite Effect Expected by the Candidate

In times of crisis, getting a job has become a tough task, which leads many candidates or those aspiring to certain opportunities to make mistakes when submitting their resumes, causing companies to use recruitment platforms instead of the famous “e-mail”, the preferred method of application. A HR specialist from Orthopride gives a warning statement to all those seeking reemployment in the market. Read below the tips she highlights and how to increase your chances of getting that coveted position:

“We who work with Recruitment and Selection always receive many resumes and messages daily, and you can be sure that I would love to help a large number of these people to get back in the market, but in practice it doesn’t work that way. The tip I would like to give today is: DO NOT hand out your resume.

Networking is not about adding hundreds of recruiters to your social networks and begging for an opportunity!! No One Will Hire You out of pity or because your financial situation is very bad, and we need to be REALISTIC about that.

The other day I saw in a job description something like: “I need a job to continue supporting my family.” Yes, this person is in a state of GREAT desperation, but even so, this is FAR from being the way.

And What Would That Path Be??

Let’s go… First, focus on improving your resume. List the activities you have developed in your last experiences, the skills you possess and acquired, the courses you took, and everything that is relevant, but without APPEAL.

The biggest difficulty for people is knowing how to sell themselves, and this has nothing to do with making misleading advertisements, but rather having mastery over what you do, and how you can add value. This applies to crafting the CV and during the interview! ;)”
