Elimination game

 Here are some differences between employers and job seekers:

- Employers see the job market as a way to eliminate candidates, while job seekers see it as a game of getting hired.

- Companies receive many resumes, but they only want to interview a few candidates. Their main goal is to reduce the number of resumes they have to review.

- Job seekers want employers to find them, especially if they have the right skills. Some companies search online for potential candidates, but generally, job seekers are expected to take the initiative and reach out to employers.

- Job seekers believe that their past performance should be the most important factor considered, but employers look at the overall presentation, including social media profiles and how the candidate performs in interviews.

- Job seekers hope to receive confirmation that their resume has been received, but employers are often too busy to send such acknowledgments.

- These differences in approach exist because employers prioritize minimizing the risk of a bad hire, while job seekers want to save time and cover as much of the job market as possible.

- Job seekers should adapt their job-hunting techniques to meet the needs of employers.
