Tech is Taking Over: Week Two Wrap Up

How to Start Earning in Tech, Stand Out, and Get Noticed

If Week 1 was about breaking limiting beliefs, Week 2 was about putting strategy into action.

Friday: Your Resume is Costing You Money—Here’s How to Fix It

Main Idea: You’re not getting ghosted by jobs because you’re unqualified. You’re getting ghosted because your resume isn’t telling your story in a way that tech hiring managers understand.

This session walked through how to transform a traditional resume into a tech-ready one, even if all your experience comes from unrelated industries.

What You Learned:

• Tech recruiters care about skills and results, not job titles

• How to rewrite your bullet points to show impact

• What keywords and tools to include (like CRMs, project tools, communication platforms)

Action Steps:

1. Rewrite 3 bullet points using the “impact formula”

2. Use ChatGPT or a resume scanner (like Teal or Jobscan) to optimize your resume

3. Apply for 1 job with your updated resume
