Job Posting Analysis-Online Presentation
Taking the time to analyze job postings and customize your résumé based on their job titles, responsibilities and qualifications is often the difference between receiving interviews and being screened out of the recruiting process. In this presentation, you will learn tips on how to use the information included in job ads to submit targeted applications. The goals of this presentation are:
• To define and clarify the three types of skills, and explain how they relate to job search and particularly job postings
• To explain different sections of a job posting and help form a better understanding of the structure of job postings
• To dig deeper into the term ‘Qualifications’ and define its key components
• To share a tool to help compare and match your qualifications to the requirements of a posting
Watch the presentation at your own pace and bring your questions to the live Q & A session (via Zoom) with a Times Change Employment Counsellor at a later date.
