What recruiters actually look for

Archivist trainee hiring wants metadata care and handling discipline. Show a catalogue sample. Wasted effort: digitization claims without standards. Campus and early-career screens still reward ownership stories over buzzword lists. Bring one artifact — clip, draft, research note, lesson plan, or campaign log — you can defend in depth.
