Times are tough and competition is tougher!

By now practically everyone knows someone (or is someone) looking for a new job…

Many people don’t realize that the main purpose of their resume is to get interviews; and the key purpose of an interview is to get an offer

Along with all of that, there are many other areas of a career campaign that might not seem obvious to those finding themselves in a position of looking for a job in this challenging economy and job market. Technology and social media have made some interesting changes to the way organizations and individuals connect and establish employment relationships. Now more than ever, it is important to leverage every possible tool and resource for one’s career management strategy. If you or someone you know is:

Seeking a new job, but not getting interviews - might need a “resume rescue.”

Getting interviews, but not offers – might need an “interview intervention.”

Only looking for jobs online, but not getting any replies - might need some “job searching secrets.”

Applying for plenty, but not getting any results - might need some “creative career coaching.”

Have not looked for a job for a while – might need some “proactive practice & preparation.”
