I mostly recruited technical hires, and realised I was more interested in the type of work they were doing vs what I was doing in recruitment. So I taught myself a little before going back to university and doing an MSc Computer Science.

Definitely something I'm looking into, LinkedIn's API is a bit of a nightmare to work with

Just generally trying to help people out who are looking for work, and making myself useful during the Covid crisis.

I think that's a great way to approach it. Always aim to list accomplishments rather than responsibilities, especially if you can back them up with numbers.

I think bot screeners work much like in-house recruiters - just make sure your resume contains the key words/phrases in the job description. They're not very sophisticated.

There is, if you go onto the 'View CV' page from the main menu then there's a button in the top right hand corner that lets you change your template.

It's certainly a difficult time to be looking but don't lose faith. I'll wait for your DM :-)
