An old friend of mine got a job after a long period. After being laid off, about a year ago, job offers were very thin.
Quite sometime ago, I received an SMS asking to help look out for job offers. In return, I offered to polish the resume. It was necessary as the resume of full of details but it fails the 3 second rule to capture and engage the recruiter.
After some rework, there were some positive responses and shortlists but no joy. As in any job hunt, when it never rains, but pours. Fast forward a few months later, there are now not one but two offers.
Nice.
