The Talent Acquisition Manager Resume
Whether you are a senior recruiting professional looking for your first manager role or simply looking for your next manager or director-level role within Talent Acquisition, this book is for you.
Many talent acquisition professionals know when they find a great resume, but many of them struggle to articulate their own value correctly in their own resumes, especially when it comes to management roles.
Oftentimes reviewing resumes doesn’t always translate to being able to write a great resume yourself. It’s not you. It’s hard to write about ourselves because we’re too close to our work or we may not know exactly what the next step in Talent Acquisition really looks like. And this causes problems.
What I’m about to share with you is the culmination of nearly 10 years of resume science. It’s based on facts and the multiple perspectives of the hundreds of Talent Acquisition VPs I’ve worked with over the years (including my own thoughts as a Talent Acquisition Manager).
I’ve had the privilege of leading recruitment teams and working with hundreds of companies to help them hire thousands of talented recruiters and recruitment managers. In the past few years, I’ve consulted with dozens of recruiting companies about how to attract and spot the best talent as well. But then I realized that someone needed me more than those companies and recruiting agencies - my peers and fellow recruiting professionals.
Some of my best hires came from people with terrible resumes, but that is rare. I don’t have to tell you that the majority of hires come from applications that involve resumes. And the individuals who articulate their value in the correct way are the ones who land interviews for the jobs they want.
Learning to write an effective resume is different from reviewing resumes and it’s one of the most important skills you will learn to advance your own career.
Resumes aren’t black and white. There are a lot of opinions out there. And while there is no one right way to write a resume, there are wrong ways. I’ll make sure you avoid resume mistakes and I’ll show you some options to write a resume that resonates with Talent Acquisition VPs, differentiates you from your peers, and substantiates your claim as the top candidate for the manager job.
