Are you a software developer? If so, does your resume accurately show your strengths? 📑 Navigating the tech recruitment landscape in LATAM, I’ve noticed some crucial areas many developers could improve in their resumes. Here’s how to ensure your resume communicates your skills more effectively: 1. Highlight Core Coding Languages: While exposure to various technologies is advantageous, it’s vital to clarify your main coding languages. If you excel in specific languages or technologies, make them stand out. This helps recruiters see you as a specialist rather than a jack-of-all-trades. 🔍 2. LinkedIn URL: Ensure your LinkedIn profile is accessible by including the full URL in plain text, not just hyperlinked. This guarantees it's readable by all ATS systems. 🌐 3. Focus on Key Functions: It's common to wear multiple hats in tech roles, but on your resume, prioritize the tasks that align with the job you’re targeting. Highlight projects and roles where you extensively used the skills most relevant to the potential job. This helps recruiters quickly understand where your strengths lie and how they fit with their needs. 🎯 👥 Recruiters: Any other tips you'd suggest for developers to showcase their expertise effectively? #TechRecruiting #ResumeTips #SoftwareDevelopment

What a special takeaway from our recent #AGMLisbon2024 was the participation of Jose Juan Pérez-Solero, whose life story was shared as an incredible storytelling experience, brimming with wisdom. Beyond his remarkable professional journey, his leadership and approach to personal and professional challenges have been truly inspiring. Some of his messages resonate deeply: In life, nothing holds more value than leading by example. It's the meticulous attention to detail that separates success from mediocrity. By pushing beyond our perceived limits, we realize that all limits are self-imposed. Our mind is a powerful tool; what it believes, it can achieve. When faced with uncertainty, it's imperative to seek clarity through inquiry. Embracing change is essential for growth and evolution. And finally, lending a helping hand to others not only enriches their lives but also strengthens our own sense of purpose and fulfillment. These guiding principles serve as a compass for navigating life's challenges and opportunities, and I'm grateful to Juan José Pérez – Solero for sharing his profound insights with us.  #Inspiration #Leadership

🚀 Talent Retention: A Key to Growth & Success 🚀 I just published an article Impacto TIC in Columbia on behalf of Deel exploring the latest strategies for talent retention, a critical factor for any business. Here are a few key takeaways: 1) Reduce high turnover costs: Employee churn isn’t just about hiring expenses—it's about the loss of institutional knowledge and team engagement. Strategic retention keeps your most valuable talent, minimizing the need for constant external recruitment. 2) Well-being matters: By 2024, companies are expected to invest over $100 million in employee well-being initiatives. Prioritizing employee experience now can foster loyalty and long-term growth. 3) Structured onboarding: First impressions count. A well-designed onboarding program not only equips new hires to succeed but fosters a sense of belonging right from the start. 4) Professional growth & development: Retention isn’t just about perks. Employees who feel supported in their career progression are less likely to leave. Training and mentorship programs can double the perception of opportunities. 5) Flexibility is king: 77% of employees prioritize flexibility over pay when considering new opportunities. Founders and TA leaders must craft flexible work policies to attract and retain top talent. Read the full article to discover actionable insights into building a more resilient, motivated workforce! #TalentRetention #EmployeeExperience #Leadership #Onboarding #HRTech #StartupGrowth #TA #Founders #EmployeeWellbeing
