Your Résumé – the First Step in Finding a Job
Are you out of work and having trouble finding a new job? Are you finding good leads but can’t seem to get an interview? Maybe you haven’t taken the right first step: creating a good résumé. It’s an understatement to say that it’s a tough job market. So, it’s important to make sure your first step, in other words your first impression, is the right one. Even if you think you have a good solid résumé, it probably needs to be updated. What can you do to make your first step better? In this session, we’ll answer this question as we explore:
♦ how the world of résumé writing has changed in recent years.
♦ some common résumé writing mistakes.
♦ the meaning of “key words” and why they are important.
♦ the impact of the e-world on you, your job search, and your résumé.
♦ simple steps can you take to ensure you have a résumé that’s worth a second look.
