Ask HN: Why do I keep getting rejected?
6 by pdx_flyer | 8 comments on Hacker News.
I have been looking for a new job for around four months and have had little success. One job rejected me after the final interview. But most jobs have either not replied to my application or I've been rejected a week or so after submitting my resume. My current role is a mix of business development and product management. It's hard to describe on a resume or give measurable achievements. I've been looking at product management roles as well as general business development opportunities. I don't know if I am being passed over due to my resume (it's three pages) or if I am not seen as qualified for certain roles or a mixture of both. Or if it's something else altogether like roles not really being available. Any tips? Is my long(ish) resume the problem?
