Dust off that resume: So you’re looking for a new job, but it’s been years since your last job search. What do you do first? Well It’s time to dust-off your resume!
You may have numerous relevant accomplishments and skills from previous roles, but listing each of them on your resume is only going to increase the time it takes for someone to read it—which could land your application in the trash. By stating the relevant information on your resume it will not only remove complications but will also move away the disconnect related to it. The key here is to honestly craft your resume so those natural connections to your dream career are made clear.
Update more than your look: As the old saying goes “dress for the job you want” still applies in today’s modern world. By willing to take up the challenge you might well get your step closer to the job you want. But don’t stop there.
Having the best job skills might just not make you perfect but it’s also a good idea to update your attitude. Be more proactive and hungry when it comes to developing your skills. Work on the possibilities and options for internal development and growth. The job you have now may not be ideal, but if you make the most of it, you can turn it into a powerful means toward your future career.
