Learn Effective Resume Building Skills from Marilyn Tullius

In what ways does your resume need to change as you move through your career? Quick answers at three levels are: (1) Entry level – Your resume will emphasize skills along with content that suggests your high potential; (2) Mid-career – Achievements count, especially challenges met, initiatives led, and cross-functional collaborations; (3) Advanced career – The spotlight is on you as a difference-maker demonstrating breakthroughs, innovations, and high performance team and program leadership. Add in reaching beyond the organization to influence new audiences and be a spokesperson for your organization. You will see resumes that demonstrate the three levels. As always, we will discuss the high priority interests of attendees and welcome questions.
