Are CVs Still Important in the Digital Age? with Jamie Harris and Amber Sutch

With many jobs attracting hundreds of applicants, application processes that are almost entirely digital, and AI and Applicant Tracking Systems becoming more complex and widespread, candidates can feel frustrated at the lack of human engagement.  

This can lead to the myth that recruiters simply won’t read a traditional CV, but this could not be further from the truth.  

This is Engineering Pro, and in this episode, Matt Nicholson is joined by Jamie Harris, Talent Acquisition Manager and Amber Sutch, Talent Acquisition Executive here at NES Fircroft.

We demystify the tools and applications recruiters use to streamline their roles and help them focus on the element that matters most – the people behind the data.  We also look at how AI can be used positively and considerately to boost your credentials and elevate your CV into a keyword-laden goldmine for securing an interview.
