Q: My husband has applied to several jobs online. It seems that no one responds to resumes submitted anymore. He is not having great success. What advice do you have for a 42-year-old purchasing specialist in his job search?
A: In short, spend less time just applying to roles online. By the time that role hits a job board, thousands may be viewing it. Here is how I would spend my time if I were your husband:
Develop a crisp, error-free resume. Use a standard font that will scan well. Avoid “wedding invitation” font or logos. Use font size 11.
