Why "Not Yet" Doesn't Mean "Never" In hiring, timing is everything. Sometimes we meet an incredible candidate, but:  • The role needs a different experience level right now  • The team is focused on other priorities this quarter • The candidate would thrive more with 6-12 months additional experience That's when we say "not yet" - but we mean it as "not right now." Here's what many don't know: We stay connected with these candidates. Months later, when the perfect opportunity opens up, they're often our first call. Some of our strongest team members are people we initially spoke with a year earlier when the timing wasn't aligned. So if you hear "not yet" from us (or any company): Take it as recognition of your potential. Stay connected, keep growing - the right moment might be closer than you think. Remember: Great careers aren't built on perfect timing. They're built on persistent growth and staying open to opportunities when they align.

When recruiters open a CV, the first 20-30 seconds matter the most. Here's what usually catches our eye (and what doesn't): ✅ What Works: Clarity up front — Role, seniority, and location should be visible at a glance. Impact over tasks — We look for achievements with numbers ("increased conversion by 20%") instead of generic duties ("responsible for marketing"). Consistency — CV, LinkedIn, and portfolio should tell the same story. Timeline gaps — We don't mind them, but we do notice. A one-liner ("took a career break for relocation/family/learning") is better than silence. Relevant experience & presentation — Simple formats (like classic MBA-style CVs) make your experience shine. ❌ What Doesn't Work: Colorful, overloaded templates — They are distracting. Fluff — Long intros, buzzwords like "hard-working" or "team player" don't help. Remember: Your CV doesn't need to be long. It needs to be readable, specific, and consistent. That's what makes you stand out.

We've all been there: hitting "apply" and wondering if anyone will really read your CV. In "Ask a Recruiter", our team will pull back the curtain on:  • How applications are really reviewed  • What makes a candidate stand out in seconds  • Small tips to prepare smarter (not harder) for interviews Spoiler: it's often not what you think recruiters look for.
