Today, I took a deep dive into optimizing my resume for remote roles. I've been applying to a number of positions, but I have a nagging feeling that many of them might be ghost listings or even pyramid schemes. My background is primarily in manual labor and customer service, specifically in fast food, where I've also gained a few years of management experience. However, I feel like my resume isn't showcasing my skills effectively. I do have a bachelor's degree in animal science, with minors in companion animals and equines, but I'm unsure how much that adds to my appeal for remote jobs. Most of my work experience—like my time in a call center and various farm jobs—is older, and I've been advised to focus on my most recent roles. Currently, I have a job that pays the bills, so I'm not in a rush to find something new, but I'm open to taking classes or restructuring my resume if that could help. I created my resume back in high school and have just been updating it since then, but I feel like it might need a complete overhaul. Also, I've never written a cover letter before, which adds to my anxiety about the whole job search process. I've mostly learned about resume writing through trial and error and a few YouTube videos. I’m eager to improve my chances of landing a remote position, but I need guidance on how to effectively highlight my skills and experiences.
