Build A Winning Resume - Beware, The Thing About Lone Rangers
By:Steven Grella

Conflict is on the increase in the world and seems to have spread to the workplace too and this needs to be carefully noted by anybody looking to build a winning resume.

The reason is that many employers well aware of the existing tensions already in their organization often push the requirement of a team leader fairly high up in the list of attributes they are looking for. This means that any applicants who build a lone-ranger resume that portrays a bad team player may just be disqualifying themselves from consideration.

This weakness in a resume is easily corrected by including accomplishments and achievements in the past where you have worked with others. Have you co-authored any reports that made the difference? Are there any successful collaborations that you can include in your resume that will shine through to show you as a good team player? These are details that are very important to include.

Remember that any organization that cannot work as a team is destined to fail. In fact many times when companies are losing it in the market, one of the things that will be happening inside the organization is that there will often be a lot disunity, mistrust and tension between staff as people become less willing to work together as a team. Instead they just persevere each other even as conflicts rise rapidly in the workplace.

Quite often a position will become vacant because tensions within the organization forced the previous occupant of the desk to either resign or get fired. So naturally while hiring a replacement the company will be looking to heal any wounds of the past. You now understand why some cocky lone ranger would be the last person they would want to hire.

Build your resume with these facts clearly on your mind and it is bound to be a winning one.
