When you're writing yours, you'll want to make sure it meets their criteria and doesn't give them a reason to pass on your candidacy. Here are three phrases former Google recruiter and current CEO of salary data company FairComp, Nolan Church, recommends avoiding. "I don't give a s--- about your tasks," Church says. A 'word salad' of keywordsCareer experts recommend using keywords from the job description to prove you meet the role's criteria. People tend to "have this word salad based off of what the [job description] says," says Church.

☆ CEO shares her No. 1 simple tactic for getting people to listen to her—you may remember it from grade school
  + stars: | 2024-04-16 | by ( Ashton Jackson | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
If you want people to listen to you, you need to be clear and concise. Using "ums" and "uhs" in your next conversation or presentation won't help you get your point across. "You can turn that into a one-minute talk, a 10-minute talk, a 20-minute talk or even an hour and a half talk." Even telling yourself things like "I'm capable" or "I'm confident" can help you "overcome nerves and get grounded," Taylor advised.

☆ Avoid these 3 common phrases—they make you look weak and insecure, experts say
  + stars: | 2024-03-31 | by ( Ashton Jackson | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
It's important to choose your words carefully and use assertive language, say authors and communication experts Kathy and Ross Petras. "The key is to be assertive without being overly aggressive," the Petrases wrote for CNBC Make It last year. No, if you have something important to say, then say it." If you're nervous or insecure during a meeting or conversation, changing a few words won't change the way you feel. 'I don't know'"I don't know" is a common filler phrase, or crutch word, to fill space until people can complete their thoughts.

☆ Hiring managers 'spend 25 times longer on your LinkedIn' than your resume, says ex-Amazon recruiter—how to impress them
  + stars: | 2024-03-10 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Recruiters notoriously spend little time on your resume — as little as three-to-five seconds, according to former Disney recruiter Simon Taylor. But it turns out that when it comes to your LinkedIn profile, they may be more lenient. "I spend 25 times longer on your LinkedIn profile" than your resume, says Lindsay Mustain, former Amazon recruiter and current CEO of career coaching company Talent Paradigm. Unlike a resume, they're not limited to one or two pages. It could be a post about something that's frustrating you about your industry, what Mustain calls "mini soapbox rants."

☆ Use ChatGPT for mock interviews if you want to land a job, says ex-Disney recruiter
  + stars: | 2024-02-29 | by ( Sawdah Bhaimiya | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +2 min
Read previewHere's a way to use ChatGPT you may not have thought of: using its voice feature to help you practice for job interviews. Harnessing the chatbot's voice feature is a hack suggested by Simon Taylor , a former talent recruiter at Disney and Amazon-owned tech startup Graphiq. He told CNBC Make IT he'd tested it out and found the questions ChatGPT asked were "spot on." Taylor says the first step is pasting the job description into ChatGPT and telling it "I want to conduct a mock interview based on this job description." He said the hack is one way to practice answering potential job interview questions.

☆ ChatGPT can help you ace a job interview, says ex-Disney recruiter—here’s how: 'The questions were spot on'
  + stars: | 2024-02-28 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
He himself recently used the app in such a way and found "that the questions were spot on." Here's how he recommends doing a mock interview with ChatGPT voice. "Say, 'I want to conduct a mock interview based on this job description.'" "Select 'voice mode,' which is an interactive voice command aspect of the app where you can have back-and-forth conversations with ChatGPT." The idea is you're giving it the big picture information then activating voice mode to get that dialogue going, he says.

☆ How to use ChatGPT to prepare for a job interview, says ex-Disney recruiter: It's 'a smart approach'
  + stars: | 2024-02-23 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Hiring managers have all kinds of pet peeves when it comes to the job interview. When preparing for an interview, you'll want to be ready for the kinds of questions they'll ask about your own professional history as well. 'Literally just paste in the job description'ChatGPT can use a job description to generate the kinds of questions a hiring manager or prospective employer would ask in an interview. "And then literally just paste in the job description." "I'd be looking for ChatGPT to provide anywhere from seven to 10 questions," says Taylor, "to help provide a well-rounded slate."

☆ When it comes to cover letters, 'less is more,' says ex-Disney recruiter: Focus 'on the value you can provide'
  + stars: | 2024-01-29 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
There's some debate about whether or not you should write a cover letter when you're applying for a job. 'Less is more'Whoever ends up looking at your cover letter likely won't have hours to spend on it. For most cover letters, an intro sentence, a few bullet points and a closing sentence are all you need. He'd then end the cover letter with a sentence like, "looking forward to speaking further about this assignment." Home in "on the value you can provide" as that's what could win them over.

☆ Hiring managers spend ‘3-to-5 seconds' on your resume, says recruiter who’s read hundreds—here's what they look for
  + stars: | 2024-01-25 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
'The current job title'First, recruiters are looking at your job titles. Specifically, they're looking at "the current job title," says Taylor. They'll be comparing to see how similar it is to the title of the role they're looking to fill. If you're not currently employed, hiring managers will be looking at your most recent job title, says Taylor. Work experience at 'companies that are reputable'When recruiters scan your most recent job title, they'll also be looking at the name of the company you're working at or worked at.

☆ Recruiters spend just 3-5 seconds on your resume—how to get their attention with your summary
  + stars: | 2024-01-18 | by ( Gili Malinsky | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: 1 min
Recruiters don't spend much time on your resume — three to five seconds total, according to former Disney recruiter Simon Taylor. That being the case, you'll want to direct them to the most important information on your resume first. Under experience, include your most recent title and job duties you've performed that are similar to the responsibilities of the role you're applying to. Another way to draw recruiters' attention to your relevant job skills is by writing a summary at the top of your resume. Here's how Taylor, whose leadership book "Build Smart" will be out in April, would recommend going about it and why he thinks it's effective.

☆ Europe's Stripe rival Adyen saw $20 billion wiped off its value in a single day. Here's what's going on
  + stars: | 2023-08-21 | by ( Ryan Browne | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +6 min
Pavlo Gonchar | Sopa Images | Lightrocket | Getty ImagesSpirits were high when Dutch payments firm Adyen floated on the Amsterdam Stock Exchange in 2018. The company was riding a wave of growth in Europe's technology sector and snapping up competition from its mega U.S. rival PayPal. Since then, the company has weathered a turbulent ride, including a global pandemic that knocked volumes from travel clients significantly. Company shares plummeted 39% on Thursday, erasing 18 billion euros ($39 billion) from Adyen's market capitalization, as investors dumped the stock after the firm reported its slowest revenue growth on record. Adyen has typically been viewed as a growth stock, after consistently reporting revenue growth of 26% each half-year period since its 2018 stock market debut.

☆ Neobanks battle to lure UK savers with juicy yields as interest rates rocket to a 14-year high
  + stars: | 2022-12-16 | by ( Ryan Browne | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
"We've re-entered the era where banks use better savings rates to acquire customers," Simon Taylor, head of strategy at fintech startup Sardine.ai, told CNBC. The Bank of England on Thursday hiked its main interest rate by 50 basis points, to 3.5%, its highest level in 14 years. They mean savers can get higher rates of returns on their deposits. However, those with mortgages, credit cards and personal loans to pay are charged higher interest. It is not the first time an internet-based bank in the U.K. has bumped up rates on savings to higher levels.
