Select a Job in Job Matching
Head to your Resume Builder and click "Job Matching" in the top toolbar to open the tool. Here, you'll be prompted to select a bookmarked job or add one manually. This will be the job description used to match against your resume for guidance and recommendations.
NOTE: If you are a Teal+ user, you'll notice the "Auto-Select content to this job" toggled on by default. This is a feature that will turn on/off content within your Resume Builder according to its relevance to the connected job description.
You can learn more about this feature HERE.
Generate a Job Summary
Once you've selected a job, we will work to generate a Job Summary.
The Job Summary is used to pull keywords from only those important job description sections: core responsibilities, core requirements, and core qualifications.
Using the full job description can often misinterpret keywords in the "Benefits" or "Accessibility" sections as being related to the core function of the job. We use the Job Summary to avoid this!
Occasionally, the Job Summary may take a moment to load.
While the Job Summary is loading, you'll see this screen appear in the "Job Description" tab.
Once the summary has been generated, you'll see the option to refresh the page.
NOTE: Your Job Summary should not take longer than a few minutes to generate. If you are experiencing an endless load time, review that role in your Job Tracker and ensure that:
A full job description exists and is saved to that role
The job description does not have any unusual formatting (e.g., symbols) or content that is irrelevant to the role (e.g., company bio)
What if I want to see the full job description?
You always have the option to view the full job description by toggling the "Show Full Job Description" on. Toggling this off will return you to the Job Summary.
How do I change my matched job?
To match the same resume to a different job description, scroll to the top of the page and click the yellow "Switch Job" button.
