Hey job seekers, I would briefly like to introduce myself, Pam Martin, and my new company - Resume MakeOver, which was launched in January, 2012. Resume MakeOver helps job-seekers discover the world of work by researching employers in their field, local Labour Market information, etc. and applying their education, qualifications, background and skills, to the current job market. Our services are geared towards all job seekers, including students who are graduating or looking for a summer job. Resume MakeOver offers a holistic and innovative approach to your career development and has a reputation for its high quality, first-class services.
My background and experience as an undergraduate career advisor set the stage for Resume MakeOver. I have a passion for writing and helping clients with their job search/interview skills and resume/cover letter writing. I have critiqued numerous resumes and cover letters and successfully advised clients on effective work search strategies.
In this introductory blog, I briefly highlight all the appointment types that we offer, but in future blogs, I will be focusing individually on certain aspects of the following: –
1. Resumes/cover letters – remember that a professionally written, remarkable resume generates interviews. Your resume should be tailored to the job and organization that you are applying to, using strong key words that are in the job description.
2. Work search/interview strategies – an impressive interview will set you apart from other candidates and will give you a competitive edge! Learn how to answer interview questions confidently and learn what NOT to say in an interview! Also - remember - you only get one chance to make a great first impression!
3. Career coaching – still confused about where your passion lies? Resume MakeOver will help you discover your strengths and define your career goals in order for you to move forward in your job search. More than one appointment may be involved, depending entirely on the client’s needs – no pressure whatsoever!
So - are you still wondering what you are going to do after graduation, or are you still confused about how to write a resume or cover – or students – are you still looking for that perfect summer job? Let me know and I will be pleased to answer your questions and concerns or offer you some helpful tips!! Looking for a job can be extremely daunting, but the sooner you take action, the sooner you will be employed! Your comments and feedback are important to me. If you need advice with any aspects of your job search or resume writing - look no further – and respond to this blog.
