When crafting your resume, include an "anchor statement" under each job title to describe the company you worked for, advises James Hudson, former head of talent acquisition at Nike.
This brief description, such as "fintech company with half a billion dollars in revenue," provides recruiters with context about the company's size and scope.
Hudson emphasizes that understanding the company's scale helps recruiters gauge your responsibilities and experiences accurately. Whether it's a well-known brand or a startup, the anchor statement situates your role within your professional journey, making your resume more effective in catching a recruiter's eye.
