Reminder that Iโll be out of the โofficeโ this week enjoying some family time. ๐ฅฐ

One of the most important reasons for hiring a professional CV Writer is that we can help you โbeat the botsโ. ๐ค
Did you know that Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) can be used to screen CVs for keywords from the job description?! ๐ฑ
A good CV Writer (hello, itโs me!) will identify relevant keywords and include them in your CV. ๐๐ผ
Weโll also make sure your CV is formatted in a way that makes it easily readable for ATS. This will give you the best chance of passing the screening process and getting your CV seen by a human! ๐ฅณ

BIG NEWS: Iโll be delivering a FREE online CV Writing Workshop for members of the Military Coworking Network on 14th March! ๐๐ผ
If youโre a member of MCN, you can sign up for the workshop here ๐๐ผ: https://www.militarycoworking.uk/event-details/cv-workshop-with-jenny-byron
If youโre not a member but you are a military spouse or partner, then itโs also free to become an online member. ๐ฅณ
Whoโs in?! ๐
If youโre a member (itโs free!) of the Military Coworking Network, check out my latest article. Itโs all about using AI to write your CV. It might seem tempting, but is it the best way to do it?! ๐ค
Hint: the answerโs no! ๐
AI (Artificial Intelligence) is a hot topic at the moment, but it does have its drawbacks ...
When it comes to recruitment, Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) have been around for a while.
They certainly make the recruitersโ job easier but AI might not be such a great thing for job seekers. Using AI to write a CV can be useful but it shouldnโt replace the human voice.
Find out why on the MCN Blog. Members can access CV expert Jenny's blog here: https://www.militarycoworking.uk/resources/using-ai-to-write-a-cv.--is-it-worth-it%3F
If you're not a member yet and you're the partner of a veteran, serving person, or reservist you can join our Online Membership for free here: https://www.militarycoworking.uk/online-membership
