Not getting calls for interviews despite submitting your LinkedIn Profile and being consistent in applying for jobs in M&E and International Development?

How strong is your LinkedIn profile for a specific job you want to apply for?

Only 2% of resumes land interviews in today’s job market

78 percent of job applications in Monitoring and Evaluation and International Development are rejected before they are seen by human eyes. Before your LinkedIn Profile reaches the hands of a hiring manager, it must pass a series of checks by an Applicant Tracking System (ATS).

An ATS is a recruitment software used by recruiters and employers to collect, sort, scan, and rank the job applications they receive for open positions. If a LinkedIn profile is not written with an ATS in mind, a qualified candidate can be easily passed over.

Understanding EvalCommunity LinkedIn Profile Scanner and how to make your resume stand out

What is ATS?

ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are used by companies to automatically screen and rank each applicant’s suitability for the job based on their resume.

How does ATS work?

ATS software scans resumes for keywords, screening and ranking your suitability for the job based on how words in your resume match up to those in the job posting.

How to get past an ATS?

If your resume isn’t optimized for the role you want, your chances of landing an interview are pretty low. With EvalCommunity Resume Scanner, you can customize your resume for each and every job posting. This is crucial to get your resume through the Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and get you through to the interview phase.

Who uses ATS?

Most recruiters and companies now use applicant tracking systems to manage applications. They may have hundreds of job seekers for a single role. Due to the sheer volume of applications they receive, companies started using pieces of software called Application Tracking Systems (ATS) to help them identify the best candidates.

Why EvalCommunity Scanner?

Our matching system uses the same criteria that organizations working in International Development are looking for after you press “Submit” on your application. After the scan, EvalCommunity Scanner will give you a Match Score to help you gauge how well your resume matches up with your target role.

How to use it?

To start: click or drag & drag your resume in the field. Alternatively, you can paste the resume’s content to the box in the center. Then paste the job description for your target role in the box on the other step.

Which option should I choose--apply with a resume or apply with LinkedIn profile?

You should use both your LinkedIn profile and your resume to apply for jobs! Almost every site or posting will allow you to apply with your LinkedIn AND attach your resume. Read the position announcement CAREFULLY. If they request that a resume be uploaded with the application, do it BUT never forget to optimize your Linkedin Profile or your resume for a specific job vacancy.

Why you shouldn’t use the apply option on LinkedIn without optimization?

  1. Your LinkedIn profile doesn’t tell your whole story
  2. Easy Apply on LinkedIn doesn’t include a cover letter
  3. Your LinkedIn profile might not match the job requirements
  4. The company’s software (ATS) might not be able to read your resume accurately.
