EP 1605 Yes, I know. 3 days in a row. I promise there will be a little gap before the next one. Today, I answer: As a recruiter, what are the most important things you look for in a resume and/or LinkedIn profile? If an Executive Search firm emails you requesting that you recommend someone for a position, does that mean they are interested in hiring you for the position? Should I send a thank you note once I got the job? What should I do when I haven't found a job 8 months after graduation? What is the best way to find a new job using LinkedIn?

EP 1604 This is my second AMA. I hope you find it helpful. Do recruiters read cover letters? What is the typical word count for a good cover letter? How do you efficiently reach out to individuals in charge of reviewing online job applications, especially in situations where the recruiter or HR personnel never replies to phone calls or emails? How does a recruitment consultant focus on helping candidates find jobs? Most are focused on assisting companies find the right candidate. As a recruitment consultant, how can one assist a job seeker find his/her dream job? How is it legal to recruit on the basis of gender for technical jobs such as copyediting or patenting?

What looks better on a resume, 8 years at one job and a good recommendation from the manager, or 2 years at four separate jobs with good recommendations from all of the managers? Are there headhunters that only charge money if they land you a job?  If you are given a written notice at work, should you be looking for another job, could that mean they wanna get rid of you? Should you include a description of a company on your resume? Is recruiting a dead-end job?
