The Words all Professional Resume Writers Hate to Hear by Louise Fletcher - Sep, 2010 Checking my email one day this week, I found one that started in a way destined to make my heart sink: “I know we finalized this resume a while ago, but I showed it to a friend and he had some comments …” My heart doesn’t sink because of the extra work – I don’t mind that if the comments are helpful – but because I know that they probably won’t be. So I now have two choices. 1) Make changes that will be detrimental to th... |

Leveraging Unsuccessful Interviews by Sherri Edwards - Sep, 2010 In previous posts, I have addressed the need to invest time in preparation and being able to bounce back when things don’t go as planned. Tracking your activities and learning why things don’t go as planned are critical to changing the results you may have gotten. Before an interview, it is important to have done research to learn as much as you can about the person interviewing you, the role you are applying for and the or... |

Five Tips for Writing a Compelling Résumé by Nimish Thakkar - Sep, 2010 Résumés have come a long way since they were just typed pages that chronologically listed employment histories, job duties, and educational qualifications. Hiring managers are inundated with hundreds of résumés that still follow “old school”. In a competitive economy, however, a résumé needs to work much harder. Every inch of résumé space must be used to effectively communicate your value proposition and differentiation str... |

Grow your network in three easy steps by Nimish Thakkar - Sep, 2010 Networking is a powerful tool that can catapult even ordinary careers to extraordinary heights. From entry level employees to business owners to politicians, individuals at all levels have leveraged networking to achieve their professional aspirations. Despite its proven effectiveness, many fail to exploit “people power”, mostly due to self-imposed, often myopic, misconceptions. I have come across myths ranging from “I am ... |

How to Make your Case for a Promotion by Nimish Thakkar - Sep, 2010 Want a promotion? Let me guess the response. I estimate that over 80% to 90% of individuals never ask for a promotion. Worse still, of those who do, over 95% don’t plan well enough before pitching for it. Considering what’s at stake, it is surprising that so many individuals don’t have a robust plan to achieve their career goals. If you have repeatedly lost out on a promotion to an “unworthy” contestant, it may be time to ... |

Your Next Job Could be a Tweet Away by Nimish Thakkar - Sep, 2010 From tweeting about office gossip to discussing dating nightmares, social media has literally redefined the way we communicate about our personal and professional lives. As a career coach and professional resume writer, I am witnessing an emerging trend: On the employment front, both job seekers and hiring managers are embracing social media with open arms. In fact, the utilization of social media is so prevalent, the very ter... |

Why Trying for Less Will Get You More by Louise Fletcher - Aug, 2010 Can narrowing down your job search focus actually get you more interviews than trying for a wide range of jobs? That’s been my experience. First let me give you a business example, and then I’ll tell you about a client of mine who got amazing results just by narrowing her sights. When we worked with the amazing Squared Eye to redesign our website earlier this year, we made a big decision: we would clearly define our targ... |

Overcoming the by Lindsey Pollak - Aug, 2010 Lots of people are buzzing about the recent New York Times Magazine cover story, “What is it About 20-Somethings?” The article focuses on the fact that today’s 20-somethings are “delaying adulthood” by moving back in with their parents, marrying later and hopping from career to career. The article speculates about whether these shifts are happening because of the current economy, a fundamental change in the definition of a... |
