Work It Podcast: How to write a standout resume
It is possible that your job application may be buried in a sea of others. So how do you catch the hiring manager's eye. Lim Zhirong, master professional at the Institute for Human Resource Professionals, walks us through the dos and don'ts to get you to the top of the pile. Here is an excerpt from the conversation: Tiffany Ang, host: I read that it takes a hiring manager, on average, 10 seconds to decide if the resume is in the accept pile or the reject stash. What would you first look at if I were to put an eye tracking software into your eyes? Which content would take up most of your eye time? Lim Zhirong, master professional at the Institute for Human Resource Professionals: I will say your last two recent jobs and your time in the role. But first of all, it depends on the hiring company and the nature of the industry. If you're a startup looking to hire, you probably wouldn't be so obsessed with the staying power of an individual. Rather, you'd be more obsessed (if the candidate has) the ability to do something from scratch and scale it up. On the other hand, if you are applying for a more traditional company, the recruiter might value things like: Did you spend four years in your most recent gig? And was your second most recent gig at least three years? So, I wouldn't say this is what I look for, but depending on the nature of the industry, recruiters may look at it this way. Tiffany: They will still look at the first two jobs, it's just that maybe someone from a startup company might look at what you have achieved, whereas somebody who is in a bigger company, a legacy company, might value longevity, so they might be looking at the duration. Zhirong: Anyway, the first page is usually your last two gigs. Tiffany: Exactly. But there's always the top part where you write a short little bio of yourself. Zhirong: Personally, I don't think it is necessary, but if you still want to include it, I recommend keeping it to two to three sentences. I've seen resumes where the personal bio was almost one third of the first page, and this personal bio is just a self-description of the individual, not substantiated by your achievements or impact at work. Depending on the interviewer or screener who picks up your resume, they may or may not believe it, right? Gerald Tan, host: I think Zhirong mentioned a very important principle, which is that you need to create a resume that is reader-friendly. You need to put yourself in the shoes of the reader: What are they looking for? What will appeal to them in terms of keywords and important information about you? That way, it makes the whole reading, the whole 10 seconds, more worthwhile.

Record labels in talks to license music to AI firms Udio, Suno
[LOS ANGELES] Major music companies are in talks to license their work to artificial intelligence (AI) startups Udio and Suno, deals that would establish a framework for how AI companies compensate recording artists for their work, according to sources familiar with the discussions. Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group and Sony Music Entertainment are pushing to collect license fees for their work and also receive a small amount of equity in Suno and Udio, two leaders among a crop of companies that use generative AI to help make music. Any deal would help settle lawsuits between the two sides, said the sources, who declined to be identified because the talks could fall apart. Udio and Suno enable aspiring music creators to type in a prompt that describes a sound or song like 'a modern country ballad about unrequited love' and receive an audio recording in return. The companies must train their software on datasets made up of millions of individual pieces of information. That means a lot of music. The major music companies sued Udio and Suno last year accusing them of copyright infringement. The Recording Industry Association of America (Riaa), a trade group for record labels, sought as much as US$150,000 per work infringed, which could total billions of US dollars. The music companies and the AI startups are talking to see if they can agree on terms rather than continue to fight in court. The negotiations are happening in parallel, creating a race of sorts to see which AI company and label will strike a deal first. The talks are complicated because the labels are pushing for greater control over the use of their work, while Udio and Suno are seeking flexibility to experiment and want deals at a price reasonable for startup companies. Udio and Suno did not respond to requests for comment. The three music companies declined to comment. A NEWSLETTER FOR YOU Friday, 2 pm Lifestyle Our picks of the latest dining, travel and leisure options to treat yourself. Sign Up Sign Up Udio got US$10 million last year from a group of investors that included venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, while Suno raised US$125 million in a round that included Lightspeed Venture Partners. AI companies have battled major media companies over whether they need to pay to train their large language models on copyrighted work. They have argued that the training is covered under fair use, while rights holders say they must be compensated. The New York Times sued OpenAI, which has struck licensing deals with companies such as News Corp, the Associated Press and Vox Media. The music industry has wrestled with how best to respond to the rise of AI technology. Industry sales have grown over the last decade, but have yet to fully recover from the damage wrought in the early days of the internet, when file sharing sites and piracy decimated sales. Record companies have battled every new technology, from file-sharing to user-generated content to streaming. But streaming services such as Spotify Technology have helped revive the industry. The industry has expressed a desire to protect its copyrights while also leaning into new technology. 'The music community has embraced AI, and we are already partnering and collaborating with responsible developers to build sustainable AI tools centred on human creativity that put artists and songwriters in charge,' Mitch Glazier, chief executive officer of the Riaa), said when it filed the suit. 'But we can only succeed if developers are willing to work together with us.' BLOOMBERG
