Resume Writing—Get Your Foot in the Door

Get your foot in the door of your dream job by writing a powerful resume!

 

Writing your Future:

Your Resume is a powerful career marketing tool; thus, your resume should be a persuasive marketing piece and not a dull career biography. Don’t let your resume go unnoticed: take charge, and follow this course to learn how to get your foot in the door and market your greatest commodity: yourself.  I have heard many say, “I have applied for several jobs, but I don’t have any interviews lined up.” It all begins with your cover letter and resume. While I do not always get the job, I have always gotten the interview, even over those more skilled than I. Why? Because resume writing is an art, and I have learned that art.  

Overview of the Course Contents–What you will Learn:

In 28 short lectures, you will learn how to revise, write, design, and format your resume in the best way possible to sell yourself. Selling yourself is what you need to do daily: you sell yourself to your date, your boss, your child, your prospective employee, your friend, and even to yourself!

 
  • General Knowledge: words to avoid, how to show not tell your skills, and how to write with flair
  • Content: what to include and what not to include, how to sell your unique skills, and how to write each section
  • Design and Layout: general guidelines, use of formatting, and samples
  • Bonus Section: watch me transform a resume from start to finish and learn how I can help you further

The other resume courses give good resume tips, but they also focus on other aspects of the job hunt; this course is focused SOLELY on resume writing, so it is a complete comprehensive guide, giving you more in-depth guidance on the art of resume writing. After taking this course, you will be able to build a professional resume that will help you stand out from the crowd, getting your foot in the door and landing interviews. An investment in your career is an investment in yourself. Don’t procrastinate. There is no time like the present to take charge of your career. Take this course and start your job hunt in the most effective way.
