Obituaries

We all know we will have one at the end of the trail. Whether we write it or others do for us. When I see most resumes I think of an obituary. Most actually read like one. Here is what I have done in the past. I find resumes are one of those necessary evils. Everyone wants them yet they actually work more as a rejection tool.

The game for you is to try and be proactive with your resume. Get across what you can do for the potential employer. When that catches their attention then you can follow up with how and why you can.

This is definitely one good reason to pay someone to help you with your resume, get that impartial input. No matter how you handle resumes remember that the important function here is to get in front of people.
