Sandra's Success Story

Sandra moved to Calgary from New Brunswick. She was fresh out of college but had a difficult time finding work. After a couple of months of being unemployed, she applied for Calgary Career Hub and got immediate access to online resources, workshops, and 1-on-1 sessions with a career counsellor.

“I updated my resume and attended the different sessions on many topics, such as ‘How to stay motivated during your job search,” says Sandra. "I have a beautiful resume that I am proud of."

Many employers use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to perform initial resume screenings. If your resume and cover letter are not formatted properly, the likelihood of an actual human reviewing your resume is small. Nowadays, it’s crucial to have an ATS-friendly application, and luckily, we can help you with that!
