Resume and Interview Tips

Your Resume Reeks! Finally Get The Phone Ringing Off The Hook For Your Dream Job Asap
By:Angela Marren

You stare blankly at the computer screen. Your email inbox is still empty. You click the refresh page. Yup, it's still empty. There's only one logical answer to this. Your email service provider must be down. Yeah, that's got to be it. You call them up, and they tell you the bad news. They are not down at all, and that "You've Really Got No Mail!" But I sent out about a hundred resumes last week. Not one of them is interested? How can this be?

Listen up. The truth is...it really can be just that. They are NOT interested. There is one good reason to why that is. Your resume reeks to high heaven. It's not just bad, it's so bad it makes bad look good. That's how bad your resume is. That is also why nobody is giving you the time of day, and your answering machine still shows a big fat ZERO people called for you today.

Did you know (shocking I know) that they tend to "frown" on misspellings? I know, I don't get it either. I guess they think it makes you look unprofessional or something. And if you really took this job seriously, you would have spell-checked your work...or something silly like that. I don't know. Doesn't seem quite fair, but they are getting picky, that's for sure.

Did you also know that for every job posting, hundreds or even thousands of perfectly qualified people are applying for the same position?

This means it's getting WAY more competitive than it once was, so your resume has to be even stronger than it was before. You want the employer to take a good strong notice of not just your resume, but of YOU, period. Your resume is like your personal "salesman" out there in action trying to win you a job. If your salesman tells them how bad you are at everything, do you really think they will want to "buy" you?

No, they won't. But never fear. You can fix this problem. It's not that hard either. You just need to learn a few things about what employers are looking for in a great resume. Get the inside scoop on exactly what excites employers and what they look for in the "perfect" candidate. YOU can be the perfect candidate they are looking for.

Check out one of the many great books on resume writing and use some tried-and-proven examples to model your resume after.

If you are sick and tired of never getting called for that incredible job that you know you would be absolutely perfect for, then you want to make sure your resume is in its most tip-top shape. Take some steps now to create the perfect resume, and your job-hunting days will be behind you.
