My feeling is that this excellent post has two very specific audiences. First, job seeks – accounting grads for sure – who are all looking for any way possible to create differentiation. Also, hopefully, employers see this as a way to creatively weed through the volume of resumes by including specifics in job descriptions – i.e. “we are looking for candidates experienced with XYZ business software application.”
I have a related idea…should software companies offer a service to its clients of posting client job openings? Personally, I think so. Do you see this happening? If not, do you think this is a good idea?
I want to personally thank Hunter for his research effort and creative analysis of a timely, relevant topic.
