In this episode, you are going to discover what hiring managers are looking for. I took some of the best recruiters here in Austin - and we’re going to have a live panel discussion to help you all get hired.

The theme to hammer home: Put yourself in the perspective of a hiring decision maker, and we’re going straight to the horse’s mouth with this episode.

We’ll talk about how to get your resume noticed in the first place -- and how to be the one that gets picked during the interview process

Here's what we asked the recruiters:

What makes you put a resume in the yes vs. no pile?
Please discuss your mechanism of sourcing + filtering out candidates. What do you actually type in during your searches?
If someone is interviewing with you -- and all of your candidates are awesome -- what’s the one thing that makes you pick the winner?
“What’s your biggest weakness” Best way to respond?
What percentage of cover letters do you actually read?
Resume or PDF?
Have you actually disqualified someone just due to a typo?
How long do you actually spend on each resume?
What do you think is the best investment of time a job seeker can make for their job search?

...PLUS Q&A from the audience!
