So you think you have produced a quality resume, but you never seem to get any responses to your resume. You then begin to question your own skills and qualifications.

The problem may not be with your resume; instead it may be with the way you are trying to distribute your resume.

Many people simply fall into the mainstream trap of doing what every other job seeker is doing. So what may be the real reason why you get no responses to your resume?

Most people use the traditional approach of simply posting their resume on one or two large job boards. The problem with this approach is the competition is extremely high on these larger job boards; which makes it hard for your resume to get discovered.

A better approach for many people would be to distribute their resume on smaller niche job boards where there is less competition. Also, smaller job boards attract more small to medium sized employers. This is because smaller niche job boards are much more affordable for smaller employers to post their job openings.

Large job boards charge employers $300-$400 to post one single job opening. This is simply to expensive for many small to medium sized employers; therefore, they use smaller more affordable niche job boards. There are several companies that specialize in distributing your resume to a large number of smaller niche job boards for a small fee if you want help in this process.

The bottom line is you need to think outside the box of traditional mainstream job seekers. Successful people are always looking for new ways to promote themselves in order to get ahead of the competition.
