I am a data nerd seeking an opportunity to find a new industry to welcome my skillsets. I have spent over a decade perfecting a broad set of data and analytic skills and methodologies that have been used to modernize the way a company utilizes data in order to drive positive change for the future of an organization. I love bridging the conceptual idea to visual reality. I have a weird fascination with processes and process improvement. I seek to make the live’s of those around me as efficient and effective as possible. I want to equip the organization, whether it be the C-level executives or the front desk attendant, with the best, most sophisticated data and analytical tools to aid positive decision making. I have been a drill sergeant in the US Army, but I’ve also coached 4-year old soccer. The point isn’t that soldiers are like 4-year olds, but rather that I can teach and reach a broad group because I only aim to help an individual or team prepare to be successful. I do whatever is needed to aid in the success of the team and/or organization I’m a part of. I hope to be given an opportunity to be of service to you.

Is it normal to not hear back after applying for a job? ›If the hiring manager didn't give you a timeline for a response, consider following up with an email or phone call a week later. That being said, it's normal to not receive a response for a couple weeks after an interview. On average, a company takes 24 business days to respond, though this varies by industry.
What does a weak resume look like? ›A bad resume lacks both measurable and individualized outcomes. Instead of listing the tasks you perform or talking about your company's accomplishments, explain how you used your skills to create measurable results for your employer.
Do employers read your whole resume? ›Some employers may thoroughly scan a resume, while others may scan it for only a few seconds. The number of applicants for a particular position can also play a factor in this assessment. For instance, if there are only a few applicants, the employer may look at all of the resumes thoroughly.
How much of a resume gap is too much? ›When are resume gaps not a big deal? Employment gaps of less than six months aren't likely to even stand out. Six months is a fairly normal timeframe for a job search, so you may not even need to explain a shorter gap. Hiring managers aren't living in a bubble — they know people are struggling right now.

How far back should a resume go 2023? ›How far back should your resume go in 2023? The common advice is to keep the work experience in a resume between 10 to 15 years. Doing so will give your hiring manager a general outline of your start, your growth, and where you find yourself now.
How many jobs is too many on a resume? ›You should list as many jobs on your resume as you can assuming they are all relevant and you're not going beyond the 10-15 year limit.

The job was in the distant past
Employers are generally only interested in the last five to ten years of your work history. If your recent positions contain consecutive, relevant positions, employers will not be concerned about jobs in the distant past. They add no weight to your resume.
Leaving small jobs off a resume is fine when they don't add anything to the new position, but if the skills and experience align with the new job, include them on your resume. Remember this applies to both hard and soft skills, don't overlook the value of teamwork, leadership or adherence to deadlines.
Why my resumes always get rejected? ›Including too much information: As per a study, recruiters have observed that usually, candidates put too much personal information in a resume, just like Nationality, Marital Status, Height, Weight, etc. By putting such information in your resume can be termed in a negative way.
Can I ask why my resume is rejected? ›
Ideally, you should ask for feedback as soon as you find out you didn't get the job. You'll most likely receive an email, so send your feedback request within 24 hours of receiving the rejection. If you get a voicemail, 24 hours to call back is also a good rule of thumb.
Why is my resume being ignored? ›You're not paying attention to the job description
Take note of the qualifications, skills, and requirements in the posting, and make sure you incorporate those throughout your resume when relevant. The easiest place to tailor your resume is in the "Areas of Expertise" section.
Though many employers notify you when they fill a position, not all do. A follow-up letter gives you the chance to thank the hiring manager for their time, while also providing them with an easy way to contact you about updates.
