I would just like some tips on writing a resume that can bring out the responsibilities a nanny has as almost a "house manager", in a way that would attract employers to give me a shot at an entry level position. I only need to work part time, I would probably enjoy customer service of some kind.

Job search help!! What should I look for when looking for financial counseling jobs?

November 8, 2009 by  
Filed under Resume Tips

I am currently trying to job hunt and am interested in a financial counseling position with a non-profit compant. I DO NOT want to work for a credit card company…only non-profits! I am having a horrible time finding any jobs that are anything close to what I want to do. I am using Monster and Yahoo Hotjobs and can’t find a thing. Anyone have any search tips for this career or any other sites that could help me? Thanks!! And btw, I will be an AFC (an Accredited Financial Counselor) soon so I have more than the needed experience and credentials.

I saw a job search advice tips article an one of the things it warned about was that you can’t really effectively search for work online all the time. IT seems however, that all of the job listings are online. How do I go about finding ones available without being stuck behind my computer?

Heading Up the Corporate Ladder? . . . Now Is Your Time!

October 28, 2009 by  
Filed under Resume Tips

The demand for employees skilled enough to oversee and manage workers is very high. Recruiters are constantly and aggressively looking for experienced talent.

Low unemployment and rapid job growth are just two of the factors that make TODAY a great time for professionals looking for promotions into management. In fact, recruiters say that their premier candidate is the middle manager, an experienced worker ready to head up the corporate ladder.

Top recruiters offer these five tips for people interested in moving into management:

1. Don’t quit. Stay employed while you search.

2. Register with just two recruiters to avoid looking desperate and having multiple resumes sent to a company.

3. Diversify your skills. Specialists in the latest technologies get noticed.

4. Make sure resume is up to speed. It must be oriented toward management.

5. If you’re out of work, consider getting an advanced college degree.

It’d interesting to note that when recruiters seek out top executives they focus on one or two candidates who meet the company’s specific needs. On the other hand, recruiters targeting middle managers collect and offer pools of talent that meet a company’s general purposes.

So, if this sounds like a good time to make your move, take the time to get prepared.

The first step is to study and list all the strengths, capabilities and assets you’ve acquired over the years. Do not rely exclusively on your work history to prepare this list.

You come away from your work life with talents and useful experiences that go way beyond what’s typically contained in your resume. And, frankly, it’s these workstyle qualities and values that employers appreciate more than a boring presentation of what you used to do for someone else.

The good news if there’s an exciting job change system that can help you manage this important career move. It can show you how to land a high-paying management job in as little as two weeks!

Five Quick Steps to Becoming a Bartender

October 27, 2009 by  
Filed under Resume Tips

While it may seem too easy, the key to finding a bartender job is to focus your search and redouble your efforts. Getting a bartending job has often been shrouded in mystery but it really can be achieved in just 5 easy steps. Follow this outline and you will get a bartending job in no time.
You should focus your job search to places where you would hang out even if you didn’t work there. This will insure that your personality is a match to the establishment and provide some good motivation during your search. Working in a place where you would like to hang out is a great thing and will make you a better bartender.
You will need to write resume for your bartending job search. And not just any resume. The resume should be written exclusively for your bartending job search. Irrelevant details like a mastery of powerpoint presentation will do you no good here. Include only skills that a relevant to bartending. Skills like customer service, money management, conflict resolution and sales are essential to being a good bartender. A good bartending resume will include all of these skills even if you weren’t bartending when you got them.
You should always write a cover letter to go with your resume, even for just a bartending job. Many candidates will not go this extra mile so you separate yourself from the crowd simply by having a cover letter. This letter should be good of course, but the mere act of having one will gain you recognition. A good cover letter should show the reader how you handled a tough situation or how you grew at one of your previous jobs. Be as specific as possible, tell a story if you want to. Its alright to put your personality on display a little bit in your cover letter. Have fun with it and tell a good story. An engaged reader is a hiring reader.
A laborious but completely necessary step is pounding the pavement. You will need to contact the managers of the places on your target list and probably show up at these places in order to do so. Restaurant and bar managers are very busy people. Employees, customers and vendors are all battling for their time. It would be wise to show up during the bar’s slow hours. For a typical restaurant or bar this would be between 2pm and 5pm. The afternoons are usually a slow time where a manager will be able to speak to you.
If you are going to get a bartending job you are going to need to master a bartending job interview. Job interviews are enough to make anyone’s palms a little sweaty and a bartending job interview is no different. You have to fight through that nervousness and put your personality on display. Service jobs are about having a great attitude and personable personality, everything can be taught. Without going out on the limb a little bit you will not get a bartending job.
I hope these tips have illuminated the bartending job search process for you. It really isn’t nearly as difficult or mysterious as bartenders make it out to be. If you develop a plan, show initiative and persistence, and maintain a positive attitude you will easily get a bartending job. I wish you luck o your search. Happy Hunting.

Resume Writing?

October 23, 2009 by  
Filed under Resume Tips

Can you give me some useful tips for writing a resume. I am applying for secretarial/clerical positions. There are plenty of resume templates online. However, some of the templates are simply black and white, while others are vivid and colorful. Which one should I choose. The colorful ones are more appealing, but I want the person who is reading my resume to think that I am serious about the job.

Please comment, especially if you are a boss, or have been through a similar dilemma.
