Share ko lang. I was able to talk with someone in the same IT Technology I'm in. He was hired while he was still in his home country (not the Phils.. hehe). I saw his skills/background in linkedin and his experience is very extensive.
I asked him for some tips in getting a job. Here is what he said:
"These people do not care about the multiple skills. They come up with very specific requirements and if you do not fit-in, they do not look at your profile. "
"Keep one excel sheet containing the job number, contact person, position, link for seek.com.au as well. Also, store the cover letter and CV for each job separately. It is important or else you will get confused... 🙂"
That's why it's very important to tailor fit your cover letters and resume/CV to get noticed by the recruiters. 🙂 I think I'm not doing good enough in this area. My resume is still too long and contains a lot of information that are not relevant to the position I'm applying. hehehe We may need to take more time in customising our resume. 🙂 I'd say 1 hour or so? hehe
I'm still in Manila by the way and will be flying to Au soon.
