Resume Tip!

Resume Tip to Help Get a Great Job

The Resume.  A powerful document that stands between you and an interview.  What does your resume say about you?

A common mistake that people make while job searching is sending the exact same resume to every position they apply to.   The fact is, you can and should have many different versions of your resume, each one tailored to the position you are seeking.   

Let’s face it at this point in our careers most of us have an abundance of experience.  Be sure to take the time to think about which skills will really speak to the position you are applying for.  Since resumes generally get a 10 second glance, your most relevant skills should be the first few bullets.   Did you notice the “buzz words” mentioned in the ad?   Hiring managers often scan resumes for keywords, so you’d be wise to incorporate them.

As a side note:  It thrills me to have received an overwhelming amount of requests for career tips from you, my loyal readers.  I’d like to be able to answer each and every one of you!   Moving forward, I will choose questions to post on my blog at www.engagestaff.com, so be sure to stop by for a visit to see the answers… and please feel free to leave a comment.

Ask our Career Coach:

Q: How can someone else get exposure to learning a new task/duty in the healthcare field besides having the exposure in their existing job?  Maria M

A: Maria, thank you for your insightful question.  One way may be to take on additional projects or responsibilities in your current company.  As the director or manager of the department you are interested in if there is something you can do to assist them.   Another way would be to volunteer.   Perhaps there is a local healthcare facility that has volunteer programs that can assist you to get the experience/exposure that you are seeking in order to take you to the next step in your career.  

Best of luck!
