    Friends, I encountered a problem when looking for a job. I am an engineer with five years of experience, but my responses are almost always ignored. I think it is the resume, but I do not understand what exactly is wrong. What skills and details are best to indicate in a resume to attract attention? And how to present information correctly?

    The main advice is to keep the resume short and focus on the key skills that are really important for your position. The article helped me a lot: https://engineernow.org/post/resume-tips-for-engineers-with-real-examples/8 . There are specific examples of how engineers should correctly structure their resume so that it will interest the employer. Remove unnecessary details, focus on the results of your work – numbers, achievements, solutions. For example, not just “participated in the project”, but “reduced the time to complete tasks by 20% due to process optimization.” And be sure to use keywords from the vacancy. This helps to pass the filters of recruiters.

    Recruiters often use automated systems that scan resumes for certain keywords. Try analyzing several vacancies that interest you and find words or phrases that are repeated. Include them in your resume, but do it naturally.
