It’s far simpler, yet much more damaging. Ready to find out what might be holding you back? Let’s dive in! The Ultimate Resume Sin: The Generic Disaster The single biggest mistake people make when applying for a job is using the exact same, general resume for every single application.

Building a Portfolio That Gets You Hired in Creative Roles

Image
  In creative industries, your portfolio is more than a showcase — it’s your identity, credibility, and proof of skill. Whether you’re a designer, writer, or visual artist, your portfolio speaks before you do. At  Recruit-G , we’ve seen how a strong creative portfolio can open doors faster than any resume. Employers want to see your capability, not just read about it. In a world shaped by digital storytelling and design thinking, your portfolio is your career’s living heartbeat. 1.

The New Toolkit: How Tech is Reshaping Civil Engineering

Image
  For decades, the core of   civil engineering   was paper blueprints, manual surveying and established material science. Today, the job site and design office are digital. The industry is rapidly shifting towards a data centric approach, using technologies like digital twins, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT) to plan, build and maintain the world infrastructure.

Top Financial Roles in 2025: What’s Hot in the Finance Job Market?

Image
  Look, the finance world I started in is basically ancient history. It’s not this slow-moving beast anymore. It’s weird, it’s fast, and honestly, it’s way more interesting. If you’re looking around at   Finance jobs   right now, you can’t just look at the old titles. So I put together a list. This is what I’m seeing from my desk, the roles my friends are getting, and the jobs that companies are practically begging people to fill. 1. Fintech Analyst/Consultant These are the plumbers and electricians for the new financial internet. They’re the ones figuring out how to make your ancient bank’s app not-terrible, or how to use a technology like blockchain for something that’s actually useful. It’s a hands-on, often frustrating job of connecting the old world to the new. If you like solving puzzles that involve equal parts technology and stubborn old systems, you’ll love it. 2. Sustainable Finance Expert This role used to be a niche, feel-good department. Now, it’s a power pos...

But as the day approached this year, I found myself thinking about it a lot more than usual. Maybe it’s the state of the world, maybe it’s just the constant pressure of the business cycle, but the idea of taking a moment to reflect on what Mahatma Gandhi actually stood for feels more important than ever. I know, I know. It’s easy to hear a corporate leader start talking about “values” and immediately tune out. It can feel like just another piece of corporate messaging. But I want to talk about this for real. Not with buzzwords, but with actual stories and what this stuff means for us, day-to-day, in the trenches. When we talk about Gandhi, the two big words that always come up are truth (Satyagraha) and non-violence (Ahimsa). In our heads, we picture massive historical movements, the struggle for independence. How on earth does that translate to an ...
