Do You Put Your Address On Your Resume?

Big ambitions. Small tweaks. ๐—Ÿ๐—ถ๐—ธ๐—ฒ, ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐—ฑ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€ ๐—ผ๐—ป ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—บ๐—ฒ?

Remove your address. City and state suffice if you are in a set demographic location for your job search. You can remove city/state if you are open to national or foreign positions. Other than that, when the hiring team needs an address, they will let you know. It is not very relevant for initial vetting so long as you are willing to work in the location you are applying to. It also positions you for potential spamming, and safety/security risks. Leave it off!

Now onto the important question…

Why isnโ€™t your career growing?

Youโ€™re good at your job, you hit your goals, and your team relies on you.

So why havenโ€™t ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ been promoted? Why are recruiters ignoring ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ LinkedIn profile?

Itโ€™s not your talentโ€”itโ€™s your ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜บ. Your resume and LinkedIn arenโ€™t communicating the value you bring. You are letting the audience control your narrative and put you into their perception box. Don’t get pigeon-holed! Control your perception by controlling your brand and controlling your narrative.

Let me help you change that.

2-9 months is the average job hunt per an Indeed study from 2023. That’s a gap wide enough to account for the go-getter/outside-the-box jobseekers (2 months) and the wait-around-for-earth’s-ether to magically show up with a job for you by casually “spraying and praying” your resume on the job boards (9 months).

Make recruiters pause, not pass. Make them try every number and email on your resume. Create a frenzy! Believe me, I was recruiter for over 10 years…this happens.
