Video Instruction: Resume & Cover Letter Secrets Revealed

Back in the mid 80’s when I began working as an adult, it took me less than 90 days to get decent paying job when I needed a job. I didn’t know a lot about getting hired, but I knew that if I presented myself well, had enthusiasm, and could demonstrate relative competency to do the job I was interviewing for, I would get the job.

Today, you can be in the job market for a year and still not get a decent offer. I am talking about qualified candidates. Valuable people, looking for work and struggling to get the phone to ring. So, what do you do?

Here are a few things to keep in mind during your job search:

1. Retool your resume

2. Get feedback about your resume from an expert

3. Write a cover letter

4. Proofread your resume, and then proofread it again
