Q&A
What makes your decision as a recruiter, when developing your
list to interview able talent?
Jessica
• Pay close attention to the small things.
– As simple as - did they abbreviate the state correctly?
• The top of your resume needs to stand out.
– It’s what draws in the HR/recruiter
• No spelling errors, follow instructions, apply for jobs you’re
qualified for

What are companies/recruiters/hr managers looking for?
JP
• Present yourself right! It has to ‘look’ right.
• Everything needs to be clean, neat, and professional
• Hiring manager has 2 questions:
1. Can they do the job, and will they do the job?
2. What is their attitude, motivation, fit?
• Networking is the best way to get a testimonial for a job
• Be professional

In your career path, who has influenced you and been a
mentor?
Jessica

Didn’t get the job, but the women that did became a
