Let\u2019s talk about SEO, or search engine optimization. If you\u2019ve been on the internet for any amount of time, you\u2019ll know that SEO is essential for businesses and websites to rank, get visibility and grow. The more optimized a site or web page is, the higher it will rank and the better it will do on a search engine such as google. But, did you know that you can use SEO to enhance your job search? We\u2019re diving into the how and why below.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve signed up for any type of social media account, congratulations: you\u2019re searchable. Likely if you are actively applying or searching for a job, you\u2019ve made your presence known on LinkedIn with a profile. Taking time to audit your LinkedIn profile, as well as any other public searchable social media profile will help you not only rank higher, but ensure that everything on your profile is something you\u2019ll be okay with a future employer viewing.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Use keywords to enhance your resume. Your resume is filled with keywords, whether you know it or not. Make sure that when sending or submitting your resume digitally to a job that you have tailored it to the job descriptions specific keywords to ensure you are standing out. For example, if you apply for an Executive Assistant position that has a requirement of taking meeting notes and managing a calendar, put those exact words into your resume where you have that experience. The more tailored and exact you can be, the better your keywords will match and the farther you\u2019ll get in the preliminary interview process. Additionally, using keywords in your social media can be helpful when recruiters are searching for candidate on LinkedIn. Use places like your bio and recent job descriptions to include keywords of jobs that you are targeting.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
