Your Resume Called... It's Begging for a Makeover 🤳


Mar 12, 2024

Hey Reader!

Alright, ladies, let's get down to business. When was the last time you gave your resume a good once-over? Keeping it updated is not just necessary; it's strategic. You never know when a fantastic opportunity will pop up, and you'll need to hand over that polished Resume of yours. We will tackle this in two parts, so keep an eye out for next week's newsletter.

Here's your Weekly Power Move homework for a quick resume refresh:

· Double-check your contact information. Make sure it's current.

· Let's clear out any references to references.

· Remove your objective statement; this is no longer needed

· Add in any recent jobs you've yet to include, including your current role. Stick to the essentials for now: job title, location, company name, and dates of employment.

· Lastly, do you have any recent training or conferences under your belt that are relevant to your field? Time to add them. If needed, create a new section titled "Professional Development". Include the training name, the organization, and the year you completed or it expires.

I wanted to take a moment to chat about gratitude - it's not just good for the soul; it's a game-changer in our lives and careers. When we practice gratitude, we invite positivity, boost our happiness, and even improve our health. It’s like turning the lens on our camera, focusing on the good stuff that might otherwise blur into the background.

So here's your action step for the week: Grab your journal and write an entry about someone who's made a real difference in your career. Dive deep into how they've influenced you and why you're thankful for them.

And hey, why not take it one step further? Share this note of gratitude with them. Imagine their smile when they read your heartfelt words. Remember, when we share our gratitude, we don't just make someone's day - we strengthen our relationships and build a more positive outlook on life.
