Let's do this!

Join Rick and I tonight at 6pmPST to Craft an amazing Resume in an hour...maybe less.

I'll be giving away some great job seeker prizes and making another large offer at the end of the Resume Session...and I will be taking questions.


​

Rick's resume was a 3-pager with the first page full of summaries and detached wins.  Goal:  Create a 2 page resume full of wins and focus on Speed to Relevant Information....what great stuff he did where.  Secondary goal was to show his Unique Value repeated through the resume.

I created the structure before the call.  I needed to get to his first job entry as quickly as possible.  You typically have the first half page to hook the reader.

Rick and I are working through the first two job entries to make the case for the jobs he is going for.  I will post the finished resume, shortly.
Picture
I used the first three job entries to make the case for the jobs Rick is targeting.  You will notice that all the bullets start with an action word.  The first two entries I took from pigs to stars.  I focused on Rick's brand of identifying opportunities in the market, "untapped" opportunities and seizing them.  I showed Rick as part analyst, part innovator and full-time driver of businesses in really tough industries.  Now, when a gatekeeper or hiring manager sees this resume and their pain point is leveraging their assets and identifying opportunities for growth Rick will be getting calls.

Melinda,

Thanks...the finished resume will be up shortly. Email Chris at info@sucklessjobsearch.com and he will tell you about the 30 day program. It's intense...not for passive job seekers.

Adam-my wife and I were at dueling laptops furiously trying to comment. I had a chat with Chris. I asked about number of years of experience. Can you look at my resume and tell me how I can include past experiences without dating myself. My wife wants to talk to you about your advanced program. I just messaged Chris.

Billy,

The old Billy Baroo, Caddyshack ref. Sent the resume back to you. Spoke with Jane. She is a good egg, Noonan.

Thanks!

You are an animal. If you do this again I want in. I liked how you got the guy to think about a brand that fits an audience. I struggle there.

Ralph,

I just got off the phone with a former VP of HR that struggled to tell me about her brand. She sounded so defeated. We figured one out and she felt re-energized, excited. Marketing YOU is about knowing what specific companies need now and why you are THE GUY that crushes it.

I have never seen that live blogging before. You were writing this guy's resume and blogging at the same time? I tried to comment but couldn't figure it out. I was hoping you were going to tackle resumes and career transitions. Should I just schedule here or reach out to Chris?

Joe,

That was insane. To balance the value find with the resume creation and some technical issues of the live blogging platform cold...it was an adventure but I LOVED IT! Perfect doesn't happen often and I like to see what I can do under less than optimal situations. I saw that you reached out to Chris. Chat on Tuesday...be well.

I am bummed I missed this. I like the simple template. Easy to digest the content, methinks. Are you doing this again? If so, how do I get in?
