When a recruiter asks you about your tenure or a specific challenge you’ve faced, remember to drive the C.A.R. Too many people wax on about their experiences as just that - experiences filled with activity. Recruiters and hiring managers want to hear about results, not just activity.
If you are not clearly communicating the circumstances, actions and results you are not fully demonstrating your value.
Look for examples in the following areas:
- Service
- Quality
- Growth
- Finance
- People and Community
The C.A.R needs to be driven on your resume and when speaking with recruiters and hiring managers- make it a part of your lexicon. The root of the word executive is to execute. We must achieve results as that is why we are hired.
