Prometheus Co-Founder Gives Resume Advice That Will Help You "Instantly Be in the Top 5%" of Job Candidates

Ivan Prymachenko, the co-founder of the Prometheus educational platform, said that he still sometimes participates in recruiting, and in previous years he personally reviewed thousands of resumes. He named a simple rule that will help candidates make their CV stand out.

«I’m still surprised that in order to instantly find yourself in the top 5% of job candidates, it’s enough to follow a simple rule: describe not only your duties at your previous jobs, but also the results you achieved», — Prymachenko noted on Facebook.

He compared the following options:

  • «as the head of the marketing team was responsible for finding opportunities for sales growth and optimizing marketing processes» vs «in 2023 increased the company’s sales volume by 25%, average check by 15%, LTV by 10%»;
  • «secured the full cycle of recruiting and HR in the organization» vs «in one year hired 15 specialists with 80% of them passing the probationary period and reduced staff turnover by 20%»
  • «responsible for the successful management of various company projects» vs «was the manager of 20 projects, 95% of which were completed on time and with the fulfillment of all KPIs, and one became the largest project in terms of budget in the company’s history.»

According to the co-founder of Prometheus, if you describe not only the responsibilities of previous jobs, but also the results achieved, it creates the impression that:

  1. The candidate is focused on achieving specific business results.
  2. He has a successful track record to talk about.
  3. He knows how to concentrate on the main thing and weed out the secondary.

«Without exaggeration, this is how no more than 5% of candidates write their resumes. And it could be 50%+. From the category of elementary, but extremely effective micro-strategies for finding a great job,» says Ivan Prymachenko.

We will remind that at the beginning of November, the Central Election Commission of the Apparatus of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine announced the election of Prymachenko as a people’s deputy from the «Voice» party after the death of people’s deputy Oleh Makarov. However, he later refused this appointment.

«Having considered where I can bring the most benefit, I have decided to remain CEO of Prometheus, where we are currently working hard on a number of strategic education projects for the military, businesses, war-affected people, medical professionals, educators and recovery support initiatives, which together should cover two millions of listeners in 2025», — Ivan Prymachenko said.
