How many resumes
are out here that every recruiter/employer knows fit the bill, but do not
represent the quality of the candidate behind them?
You may possess every required skill and degree of experience your prospective
employer is searching for, but if your resume does not paint a clear picture of what makes you uniquely qualified to add
measurable value to the employer’s bottom line, you are nothing more than a
commodity. Nobody gets excited about commodities.
Recently we've
had an overwhelming response to our Resume Services department from applicants
who had previously used outsourcing
companies to rewrite their resumes. These firms may in fact have helped them, by
reformatting the resume to appear a bit more polished, but
they failed in going the extra mile to ensure the candidate truly stood out from
the hundreds of other equally qualified candidates competing for
the same position. The result? Interviews for which the candidate was not a
proper fit, wasting the employer's time (and yours), and diminishing
the candidate's confidence. Or, as in the majority of cases, not getting the
interview at all.
We know that
outplacement firms do try their best, but unless they have degrees in marketing,
editing, writing, and graphic design, they lack the
experience to truly help a candidate who needs to be branded. "Personal
Branding" has proven to be the single most important key to our success
in getting candidates quality interviews, and landing them positions. Our
branding technique is cutting edge, and unique in the field of professional
resume writing. Most importantly, it works:
