the other side of recruiting w/ james arnold
guest: james arnold, recruiter at an autonomous vehicle startup
- tailor your resume to the job description so the recruiter can match your bullet points to what they need
- reach out to recruiters before you apply so they can help you decide if it is worth your time
- when you dm a recruiter, state what you want from the interaction instead of a vague ask for a job
- the ats is not rejecting you with hidden magic, a human reviews almost every application
- treat interviews as a chance to learn even if they do not work out, every one teaches you something
