Job searching on the internet is both easy and difficult. But applying exclusively online can lead the modern jobseeker into an abyss of options. And because many job boards send your resume straight into an Applicant Tracking System (ATS), you might be left wondering if an actual hiring manager will ever even see your resume. Finding a fulfilling job can seem like a job in itself. But you’re in a great place to start. Thanks to a Board Volunteer, Melanated PEARL Corp helps streamline the search process by providing direct links to employment opportunities in South Metro Atlanta and Clayton County.
