Clock In with Emily Durham

Pre order Clock In: https://emilydurham.org/clock-in

Your resume isn’t getting ignored because the job market is “bad.” It’s getting ignored because it’s outdated.

In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what’s in and what’s out for resumes in 2026—based on what recruiters are actually looking for right now (not what your university career center told you in 2018).

We’re getting into:

  • The resume mistakes that are quietly killing your chances
  • Why your “perfect” formatting might be working against you
  • What hiring managers actually scan for in under 10 seconds
  • How AI has completely changed what a strong resume looks like

If you’ve been applying, getting ghosted, and wondering what you’re doing wrong… this is your answer.
