Before
my conclusion,
Let’s
see what this E-book says and what it motivates:
Isaiah
Hankel, Phd (Anatomy & Cell Biology) is a Founder & CEO of Cheeky
Scientist. He is bestselling Author and Career Strategist.
Cheeky

become confident and successful industry professionals.
This E-book
consists of 28 Pages.

8.

My conclusion after reading E-book:
1. In
resume, reference is not much given importance.
2. Candidate
background checking is important then being giving lot of referrals.
3. If
you want to give reference, just give college or university contact number or
admission or role number of that particular year certificated document of
candidate in clear check certificates.
4. Because,
most of the certificates are fool proof and college marks with school marks
also with grades.
5. In
general, job reference is good by your colleagues who worked with you i.e,
Performance appraisal.
6. It says
LinkedIn profiles are important for hiring a PhDs candidates I am neutral to
this point.
7. There
is no survey done about - “How many candidates
got jobs by using LinkedIn basement?”
8. Only
99% is given importance of resume but only 1% who is also fails in interviews
and PPT’s. This 1% plays major and vital roles.
9. You
can go through my blog in LinkedIn (Maddali Swetha) about resume which I wrote
article, I hope it will useful for PhDs –
Top 10
Career Objectives That Can Add Up In Your CV or Resume:
10. He
mentioned in page – 18, about “Applicant Tracking System (ATS) software”:
Applicant
Tracking System (ATS) are a type of software that act as a human resources database
for organizing applicants. Its plays a major role in selection or recruitment
process.
- Even
when I have worked as HR Recruitment, we use to shortlist the candidate resumes
in this procedure while hiring process.
Those
are:
- Candidate
Serial number,
- Skills,
- Candidate
Name,
- Qualification,
- Contact
Numbers,
- Email
ID’s,
- Open
for Relocation,
- Current
Designation,
- Current
Location,
- Marital
Status,
- Preferred
Location,
- Total
Experience 0 to 5 or 6 years,
- Expected
salary, etc.
11. In
page – 20, it is said that the hiring manager will only spend 5 to 7 seconds
reading your resume. It’s true statement.
12. Overall
the entire Cheeky Scientist E- book presentation is very good research with
figures.
Note:
