How To Make Your Work Résumé Shine In AI Era

The annual performance review, in most cases, determines the future course of action to stick with the current employer or move ahead to further one's career goals.

The beginning of the financial year also means new opportunities for those looking to enter the workforce.

In today's competitive world, grabbing the attention of the hiring manager is an uphill task. A well-crafted résumé comes in handy to make the right first impression.

However, with so many formats and several conflicting recommendations available today-where does one really begin? The starting, and the most essential point, is to be as authentic as possible, says Yadhu Kishore Nandikolla, the head (human resources) at Hyderabad-based MassMutual India, an IT services and consulting company. Never ever be superficial in CVs; "it is a piece of document that speaks on your behalf to your prospective employer, providing enough reasons why you should be hired. So, it is imperative to represent the true 'you'," he says.

While many employees believe that drafting a résumé is possible in a few hours, it's not the best way forward, considering many companies are now using artificial intelligence systems to wade through hundreds of résumés to find the candidates that seem like a good fit.

So how do you get your CV noticed and remembered?

THE ROLE OF KEYWORDS

With employers receiving over hundreds of résumés, it's easy to miss yours-but not if you include relevant keywords, says Bhakti Talati, a Mumbai-based résumé coach.
