Candidates:
First Steps
We are not a resume mill. Consider that a very major plus. Sure, you can
find some firm to get you an interview. But, if that firm hasn't done its homework then
you go through a stressful situation of interviewing at the wrong place. We will help you
avoid this, but you have to do your part. Here are your first steps:
Make a list of your key accomplishments, not your responsibiliies, at
your last job. Make this as long as you want. Now, dollarize them. That is, figure out or
find out how much each accomplishment was worth to your employer. For example,
"Redesigned Line 3 production process for 10% greater output, which increased annual
revenue by $49,000."
Repeat this process for each of your last three jobs.
Go through the list, and pick the best of the items for each of the last
three jobs.
Revise your resume, with this in mind. Keep your resume to no more than
two pages.
Decide what it is you do. This needs to be short. Are you a power
engineer? An IT project manager? That is your goal or job objective. Make it as specific
as possible.
Contact former co-workers and supervisors, and ask for letters of
reference. Try to get at least three from each job.
Contact us. We will guide you
through the rest of the process.
Major point to remember: Your resume doesn't get you the job. But, it can
prevent you from getting it. We work with you personally, not on a "pass the resume
basis." However, we do want to ensure you have a strong, verifiable resume. |
