Job seekers are deluged with advice on how to get a job. Dutifully follow every piece of advice and you’ll get the job, right? Maybe not. A perfect resume, excellent experience and good interviewing technique might never be discovered if you’re eliminating yourself from consideration. In the early stages of an employment cycle, you’re being judged on the smallest things - and that's before anyone considers looking at your social media profiles. Offend the sensibilities of the hiring manager and you won’t even get a look in.

Ask any recruiter and they will tell you the scourge of job boards is application spam. On some sites, as many as 80% of job applications are from “no hope” candidates lacking the basic credentials needed to be considered for a role. It doesn’t take long for frustration to set in quickly causing recruiters to lose confidence in a particular site. AMMA miningoilandgasjobs.com has a solution to this common problem.
