In this episode of Get Hired, LinkedIn Editor Andrew Seaman sits down with Jalonni Weaver, a high-volume recruiter. In their conversation, Jalonni takes us behind the scenes of the hiring process, walking us through it step-by-step from a recruiter's point of view. She debunks myths about Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) and gives insight into the most opaque parts of the recruiting process.

Key Topics:

  • How AI is (and isn't) changing the application process for both job seekers and recruiters
  • What applicant tracking systems actually do
  • What information recruiters can see about you and how to stand out from the crowd
  • The real reasons job postings stay up for weeks and why you should still apply
  • Why advice on optimizing your resume for ATS is misleading
  • The human side of recruiting and why courtesy matters more than ever
