🎙️ Episode 190 – 6 Seconds to Impress: What Recruiters Look For (And What They Ignore)

Recruiters take just 6 seconds to scan your resume — and in those 6 seconds, most candidates get ruled out.

In this episode of Success by Design, Tim Madden breaks down exactly what recruiters are trained to look for, what causes them to pass, and how high-level professionals can stand out in a sea of sameness.

If you're an executive, VP, or director sending out resumes and hearing crickets — this episode will help you understand why, and more importantly, what to do differently.

💡 Inside the episode:

• What recruiters actually look for in the first 6 seconds
• Why your impressive experience might be getting overlooked
• Common red flags (and how to fix them fast)
• How to craft a resume and LinkedIn profile that earns a real second look

If you want to stop getting filtered out and start getting callbacks, this one’s for you.
