It’s honestly embarrassing to say but I haven’t gotten a signal interview after applying to probably 50+ jobs ranging from “Senior Lead” to “Head of” roles. I’ve seen some great SM roles in FP&A and S&O that I’d love but I haven’t even gotten the time of day, which I find odd because I’ve already been a manager of managers overseeing revenue for a public company before. I’ve applied to Google, Shopify, Twilio, Dropbox, Atlassian, Microsoft, Amazon, Stripe, Square, Box, Plaid, honestly losing track at this point.

I know I’m capable of handling these roles and I’ve worked Big4 consulting so I know how to get in and learn very fast. I’ve also used every resume tool online, including Resume Worded to try and get my resume past ATS. Not sure what I’m missing to be honest but it has to be the resume? If you’d be open to providing some tips I’d love to DM you my resume.

    JobScan has helped me land an interview with about a 70% success rate. It scans your resume against the job description.

      Oh that is awesome I’m going to check it out now. Resume worded was good but very generic. Hopefully this helps !

    Are you in Finance? I have a similar story with very few interview invites. Strangely Google picks up my resume whereas even much smaller firms reject. Would be happy to get in touch and see if we both can review each other’s resumes

      Deal! I’ll shoot you a DM. I’m in Finance but love tech and want to make the jump to FP&A or Strategy & Operations within a tech company. Also tired of working at a startup where my #1 job is cash flow lol.

    Hello, feel free to DM me and I’m happy to give feedback. I’m only 3 YOE with a mix of corp dev and FP&A with no names, but I’ve gotten callbacks from Google, Netflix, Amazon and other big names.

    Based on your comment above, you probably need to show wider scope and quantify things.

      Hey I’ll DM you - I’ve definitely done the whole action words + quantifying impact / value statement review. Maybe you’ll see something I’m missing 😅

    I have the same issue with a long term experience in Lifescience tech. Positive I could fit in well with new tech companies but not sure what am missing in the Resume. Any help would be great
