Jobscan CEO James Hu on CareerCloud Radio Jobscan CEO James Hu on CareerCloud Radio Jobscan started from my own personal need, Jobscan Founder and CEO James Hu told Career Cloud Radio host Justin Dux. I was a job seeker myself. The herausforderung with looking for a job is the black hole. You submit a resume and you dont hear back. So we want Jobscan to be the answer to that black hole.James appeared on the podcast to discuss the ways Jobscan is arming job seekers against the outdated and ineffective applicant tracking systems that stand in their way. Heres an excerpt from early in the conversationJustin Dux After using Jobscan, what do you think are some of the first things job seekers start to learn about their resume?James Hu Looking for a job is very much, most people see a job listing and they read the description and they say, Hey, thats totally me They get really excited about it and they submit their resume without going through a detailed check like we do at Jobscan. So, alo t of times we get feedback from job seekers that this is an eye opener. They didnt know they were missing these key skills and keywords from their resume even though theyve done the same thing over and over again. Justin Dux Thats actually the experience I had with Jobscan as well. I put in a resume that I had been sending out to jobs for a few months and I really worked on that resume heavily about 6-9 months earlier, and I was stunned when my first feedback score was 38% matched. This position, exactly like you said, I felt like I was a really great match for. And so during that evening I made tweaks to the resume and scanned it over and over again to improve that score up to 80%, and thats what I was happy to get it up to. But I was shocked by the subtle differences.Listen to the full episode at CareerCloud Radio.Ready to give Jobscan a shot yourself? Try it out right here
