Part 1 - He posts his resume
Highlight:
Car selling e-course
Design a online course educating students interested in selling cars.
Course was made using Groomercord software
Part 2 - He humble brags on reddit
https://old.reddit.com/r/resumes/comments/16051be/i_dont_get_why_so_many_people_struggle_with
I don't get why so many people struggle with getting interviews. I don't mean to boast, but I've only applied to about 10-13 jobs and I've already got 5 interviews in the span of 48 hours.
I'm curious what methods y'all use when applying to jobs. Do you just apply and wait? Or do you take initiative call them to follow up ?
What is this post even. Ok congrats? Darn. If you're genuinely curious you could have asked how are people approaching their job search, or read through the many posts. Or as others said, share your wise amazing interview-getting knowledge then?
Bros got interviews with Herbalife, Amway, Mary Kay, Avon, and Primerica
Part 3 - He brags on reddit about his 7 interviews lined up but takes the 1st job he interviews for
based on your recent posts; resume, lots of interviews, quick hire process etc. Sounds like you got a job at an MLM.
What is a MLM
Be careful though, research that the company is not an MLM or a devilcorp, they all advertise marketing jobs but it's essentially sales.
If I were you, I would still try to do the rest of the interviews.
I researched them, they are legit.
Check their name to see if it shows up on /r/devilcorp sub.
Not on there . And I'm playing shinobi striker rn
What company is this? Because honestly this seems really suspicious, particularly given the resume you posted recently that was full of copy-edit errors...
Green marketing group
Isn't that the group that puts people in Costco to sell electric service and whatnot?
Part 4 - We take a quick look at Green marketing group
https://www.greenmgroup.com/index.html
This is the shadiest website I have ever seen. They literally don't even list what the frick they even sell
The "GREEN" in Green Marketing Group stands for growth. One of the founders quit making 80k a year with 401k and benefits to help start this company that now generates millions in revenue, shares 50% to 60% of the company's profit to employees and hires talented and ambitious people, while providing high-paying jobs, careers, valuable leadership skills, and entrepreneurship opportunities.
Isn't that literally just paying people
GMG has the privilege to work with some of the top Fortune 500 Companies in the nation. Our exclusive clientele and partnerships is what separates us from other companies, while our proven marketing approach is why elite clients come to us instead of the competition and continue to do business.
We have a privacy disclosure with our clients...which means we can not disclose who they are or what we do for them publicly.
An employee doesn't have to pay us anything (except their time and effort).
"posts all the red flags about green marketing whatever"
Alright thank you. What about this other company called unlimited ad group
i know you're young but you have to be resourceful and help yourself. thats how you're going to learn. start by looking at their glassdoor for reviews. read their website, what learn about what they actually sell or do. dont just look at their pretty group photos, that means nothing. next just start googling and learning how to identify a good company from a bad one. within 2 min of looking at this company's glassdoor i would easily pass.
look i hate to be a downer, but theres a reason why the job market is bad. i know you're happy bc you got a lot of interviews, but they're at shit companies. Idk how you got them. these all seem to be very entry level, stand outside sales jobs. try to apply at actual companies that exist or if its a start up, then one that can actually tell you what the frick they do. and also look up what an MLM is so you avoid joining one.
you seem like you want to work in tech so why not apply for social media marketing positions, even if they are very low entry level.
or if you have time, study for Comptia A+ certs to help you break into the field. you can get that cert studying materials from udemy.com for like $15 when they have a sale, take your test and just search indeed "comptia A+" and there are actual jobs that can get you experience being technical support for a small-mid sized company

Unironically beneficial, shows you can stick with it.
When it comes to extracurriculars you can basically put whatever r-slurred shit you want, we recently hired a junior lawyer (foid) who had weightlifting on her resume and she seems good so far. Others I remember off the top of my head include fishing (assumed he was patient and not a leftoid), wargaming (assumed nerd, was right, thats a good thing), painting (similar to fishing), whatever the frick pickleball is (at least they go outside), skiing (ditto but also might be rich, which is a plus), fricking cricket (same), and one absolute turbochad who literally put anime on there and we still interviewed him.

He might be r-slurred but as someone who has been responsible for hiring people at 2 different places he's 100% right. I want your HIGHLIGHTS, not everything you've ever done. I don't understand it honestly, when I was in high school one of the most important things they taught you about a resume was keeping it to 1 page, yet the amount of times I'd get 3+ page resumes was insane. I'm not reading that shit. I promise you your career work isn't that interesting and the fact that you've worked at so many places that it requires 6 pages on your resume is a giant red flag

That's how mine is. Very short and to the point. I also put a joke in. The overview ends with, "I can also help you with your fish." Then I listed the freelance work I did maintaining a friend's saltwater/freshwater aquariums lol. Creates interest because the HR rep wants to know what the frick the fish thing is, so they actually read it.

Yes and no. It's in the middle of all the typical resume bullshit. I really can help you with your fish though. I know the nitrogen cycle and how to test specific gravity etc. The idea is to get noticed. To have an HR person actually want to read your resume.
I landed a great job with that resume because some poor HR slob, reading piles of boring shit, took the time to read mine. Hundreds of resumes were submitted for the position, but they only interviewed a couple dozen people. I know you're joking but this is for real good advice.
Find a hook. Something interesting about yourself, and give someone a reason to want to read your dumbass resume.

New grads don't know what skills are actually relevant to their industry and it's become common practice to try and include key words into your resume so a real person's eyes will look at it.

Have you ever heard the cliche comment that when sending a professional email the first 3 sentences are the most important? It's obviously not always true, but it applies very similarly to resumes. I would look at:
1)where you worked
2)your job role
3)the top duty you listed
Experience trumps all when it comes to looking at your resume, I know that can be frustrating for people just starting out, but it's always the truth
The 4-5 lines of other duties you probably added don't really matter unless your job role was a senior role like @K9 said. At the end of the day I'm interested in where you worked, the role they gave you and what you listed as your most important work you did while there. There shouldn't be any more than 3 lines of "duties". If you did a lot for them, condense it
Your education shouldn't take up much on your resume at all. I just want to know where you went and how far you got: high school diploma (if this is as far as you got don't give it more than a line, move on to experience ASAP), associates, bachelors or doctorate and in what. Put your GPA (collegiate only, don't care about your high school GPA) on the same line if it was high. If it wasn't exceptionally good, don't list it at all
Skills is the second most important part if I'm not impressed with your experience, and it's the easiest to be brief in because it's just a list of RELEVANT skills to the job. I don't need details, just let me know if you're capable in said skill. If you list it, it's expected that you can get by with minimal training.

While the layout of the resume itself isn't horrible, the contents of this resume are probably the worst I've seen and I review 100+ resumes a month.
High school diploma 3 years ago, only has 5 months of experience working at Walmart. Those “jobs” where he lists himself as owner/freelancer are not real work experiences and I will not be convinced otherwise.
And how can you have four years of customer service experience if all your work history is in 2022?
I'd still extend an interview though.
