So, what's different about a
resume I write?
Results!
No strings. No
pre-qualifying. No leaving your Beamer here as collateral (although
if you want to, I'd consider making room in my garage.)
If you haven't been getting
as many interviews as you'd like, the problem could be your
resume. What I do is concentrate on the parts of your professional
experience that shine. That's what's going to make a prospective
employer call you.
The process
I spend time talking with
you in person over coffee -- or on the phone (my dime) if it's
not convenient for you to meet. I find out what you do best,
what you love, what you've been recognized for and how to show
your next boss how great a move it would be to hire you! You'll
be irresistible!
Sometimes, getting there means
changing to a different type of resume. Sometimes, it means
rearranging the elements on the one you have. Or maybe we do
something completely different. Really, it depends on what you
need.
There's a formula (or several,
actually) to a resume, but that doesn't mean we have to be bound
by it. If a unique approach fits you and your situation, then
that's what we're going to do.
Your job search
The same concept applies to your job search. There are some
basic dos and don'ts I can help with, but beyond that is the
realm of research, and beyond that, the imagination. There are
ingenious yet professional ways to get noticed. We just have
to think them up.
This can be fun!
When you're ready to move on,
sometimes it helps just to have someone to bounce ideas around
with. Most of us have a tough time taking enough steps back
from our experience and skills to express them objectively.
We worry about overstating. Or understating. Selling
too much. Not selling enough. Worrying if what you mean is what
you're really saying.
Sometimes, the thought of writing
your own resume is enough to talk yourself into keeping your
old job. Or maybe you don't have time to do the proper research
and planning -- or you just plain hate it. Lots of people do.
Except me. I love writing resumes.
So, you don't have to. Because
this whole job-hunting experience doesn't have to be stressful.
Make it fun instead! Getting
a new job can be one of the most exciting times of your life.
Remember to enjoy it!
