Resumes: 12 Ways to Avoid Sabotaging Your Job Search

An interactive event for job seekers

Your chances of success improve when you become informed. Advice you have assumed to be true may not be valid. And valid advice may not have reached you yet. We will explore a dozen checkpoints that can damage your job search efforts or reduce your resume effectiveness. You will learn why applying to jobs at a lower skill level is unlikely to produce the results you'd like. Our discussion will cover why "transferable" skills are often not the hoped-for bridge to entering a new industry or job role, as well as several critical reasons why you need to adhere to a few formatting rules to pass through the digital screening of online resume submission. A downloadable pdf article of the 12 ways you may be sabotaging your job search will be available. We will adapt our discussion to include additional aspects of resumes and job searching of interest to workshop attendees.
