Why You're Not Hearing Back After You Apply — And What You Can Do About It

You find a job that appears to be a perfect fit.
You submit your résumé.
Then… silence.

No call.
No email.
Not even a rejection.

You start wondering:
Did they even see my résumé?
Am I not qualified?
Is it just a bad job market?

The reality is: yes, the market is more competitive than it used to be — especially in biotech, diagnostics, and medical device fields.

Between mid-2023 and mid-2024, biotech job postings dropped 36%, while applications per job increased over 50%.
That means fewer openings and more people competing for each one — and the margin for error is razor-thin.

If your résumé doesn’t immediately show:

• What you’ve done
• The results you’ve delivered
• Where you’re located
• And why you’re a strong match for the role

…it likely gets skipped before anyone ever reaches out.

We see this every day. Strong candidates getting passed over — not because of experience, but because of a weak résumé.

Here are the biggest mistakes we see:

• No location listed. Recruiters can’t assess fit without knowing where you are.
• No company descriptions. If we don’t know what your previous employer does, we lose context.
• Too much fluff, not enough results. Hiring managers don’t want to read duties — they want to see achievements.
• No numbers. You have to show how you made or saved the company money.
• Poor formatting. If it’s hard to scan or not ATS-friendly, it’s out.

That’s why we built a tool called ResumeCreator.ai — a simple, guided résumé builder designed specifically for candidates in:

• Sales
• Marketing
• Scientific and technical roles in life sciences, diagnostics, or medtech

It helps you:

• Write powerful, results-based bullet points
• Add short company descriptions for clarity
• Include your location and credentials up front
• Use formatting that’s ATS-optimized and easy to read
