  If You’re Not Going to be Genuine, Don’t Bother
by Louise Fletcher - Jul, 2011
Not long ago, I was invited to join a brand new business social networking site. Because I like the person who sent the invite, I clicked ‘yes’ and signed up. But having looked around, I decided it was much too early stage to spend time on. For the last 3 days, I’ve received an email from the site founder. The first one thanked me for signing up and made reference to the fact I’m a resume writer. I thought that was a nice t...
 
  Why You Don’t Have to Explain Everything on your Resume
by Louise Fletcher - Jul, 2011
One of the most common mistakes people make when writing a resume is to try and explain everything. Every detail, every situation, every technology used, every job held no matter how short – everything. But this is a mistake. The job of your resume is not to tell the clearest story of what happened – it’s to show your experience in the best light. The Spotlight Analogy Imagine watching a play at the theater. At certain...
 
  Keeping Your Spirits Up During An Extended Job Search
by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Jul, 2011
I read an article this week that stated the average job search is said to be a whopping 10 months! I guess that extended the last estimate I heard which was around 6-9 months. Seems that now more than ever patience is far more than a virtue—it is a must! As a job seeker, I encourage you to stay positive while on the hunt to avoid losing belief in your talents as a professional. Here are four great ways to do just that: ...
 
  What Your Body Language Is Saying During the Interview
by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Jul, 2011
First impressions mean everything when job seeking. Your resume makes the ultimate first impression since it introduces you and your skills to a prospective employer. If your resume makes the impression you hoped for, then you’ll be called in for an interview where you’ll now need to make your first in-person impression. What many job seekers don’t realize is that although providing the right answers is important, your ti...
 
  Why Writing Targeted Resumes Is More Critical Than You Think
by Jessica Holbrook Hernandez - Jul, 2011
When applying for a job, you are immediately handed the responsibility of proving you’re the best candidate, which can be challenging if you can’t provide examples showing that this is indeed a fact. A great way to show your worth is by focusing on what the employer needs most from the candidate who will fill the position, then writing a targeted resume that addresses those needs specifically. Targeting Your Resume Proves ...
 
  Brand New You
by Valerie Sokolosky - Jul, 2011
It’s not your imagination - the job market is more demanding, more competitive and more challenging. So what makes you different and more valuable than everyone else who does what you do? Where is your additional edge, above and beyond the traditional things on your resume? It’s your authentic personal brand. You ARE your “brand,” whether you consciously manage it or not. Now more than ever, by not managing it, you are deny...
 
  HOW YOUR PERSONAL BRAND HELPS YOU STAND OUT IN A CROWD
by Valerie Sokolosky - Jul, 2011
It’s a jungle out there…and there are no signs of change any time soon. On the employment front, there were 1.5 job seekers for every available position before the “Great Recession” of 2007. Today, there are six candidates for every job To survive in our current economy, you have to differentiate yourself. In your last business meeting, networking opportunity or job interview, what impression did you make? Did others...
 
  5 REASONS JOBSEEKERS SHOULD USE TWITTER
by Teena Rose - Jun, 2011
Think Twitter is a joke? Some say yes. There are great reasons for taking Twitter seriously, however, especially when one considers it a new job-search tool that hasn’t been fully tapped. Currently other job-search methods [posting your resume with job boards and emailing your resume to recruiters], what we might call traditional job-search techniques, are continuously eroding in effectiveness. In order to fully understand...
 
  5 REASONS WHY RECRUITERS ARE USING TWITTER FOR RECRUITMENT — AND WHY JOBSEEKERS SHOULD TAKE NOTICE!
by Teena Rose - Jun, 2011
#1 Twitter is free; and with the cost of business sometimes being a hefty burden, even recruitment firms can’t resist the charms of a no-cost, useful online tool. For recruiters seeing a decline in assignments, free services such as Twitter can offer needed relief to a weighed-down operating budget. For jobseekers: Twitter is free, even to Jane and Joe Jobseeker. If recruiters are using Twitter to attract ideal job candida...
 
  HOW TO GET BEYOND THE GATEKEEPERS WHILE JOB HUNTING
by Teena Rose - Jun, 2011
Getting beyond the gatekeepers can be one of the most challenging for jobseekers. Gatekeepers can be those most obvious, such as administrative or personal assistants to the company’s hiring managers, department heads, and executives. But, gatekeepers can be those in less obvious roles as well, such as assistant managers, supervisors, engineers, and so on. Your first thought might be that only those within some sort of sup...
