In this episode, you are going to discover what hiring managers are looking for. I took some of the best recruiters here in Austin - and we’re going to have a live panel discussion to help you all get hired. 

The theme to hammer home: Put yourself in the perspective of a hiring decision maker, and we’re going straight to the horse’s mouth with this episode. 

We’ll talk about how to get your resume noticed in the first place -- and how to be the one that gets picked during the interview process

Here's what we asked the recruiters:

• What makes you put a resume in the yes vs. no pile?
• Please discuss your mechanism of sourcing + filtering out candidates. What do you actually type in during your searches?
• If someone is interviewing with you -- and all of your candidates are awesome -- what’s the one thing that makes you pick the winner?
• “What’s your biggest weakness” Best way to respond?
• What percentage of cover letters do you actually read?
• Resume or PDF?
• Have you actually disqualified someone just due to a typo?
• How long do you actually spend on each resume?
• What do you think is the best investment of time a job seeker can make for their job search?

...PLUS Q&A from the audience!
