Went to a networking group this week and they gave me a lot of positive feedback on my resume. Ideas on marketing objectives while fine-tuning my skills and VERY motivating.
Off the top they told me to insert an OBJECTIVE or Summary into my resume (cover letters are going by the wayside for the interview process) each job should not more than 3 bullets. (Mine has 6 – they advised no one would read) FONT should be 10-11. Develop PAR statements (problem – action-result) examples.
Have examples of your work.
Know your resume
Yea- Ums- Yens’-etc shows poor education
Look up wages on Salary.com or wageweb.com – know the industry is paying
The average person is staying in a job 1.9 years to 5 years (sad)
Know about the company from the web- library – Google – networking
HR dept are getting 2200 applications a DAY – make yours stand out
Be able to sell your self in 30 sec or less- know your (boy scout statement) what’s your story- what do you want to do and where do you want to go?
