Resume Writing Articles

After working for a company for four years and two months, I finally realized that its time for me seek for another path that suits my interests and that will give me more space to grow. It was not easy leaving the people I’ve worked with, but it’s something that i had to sacrifice to transition myself from being in a pond into an ocean.

After that big decision, a problem occur… how to write a resume that will get me interviewed and be hired? this gave me an idea that resume writing is not an easy thing to do, where in fact, there are challenges on writing one.

Do me a favor, go ahead and do a quick Google search about resume writing… tens of millions of articles will appear. Which makes me wonder, are these articles really will give me a better idea on resume writing?

I took time reading these articles, some led me to sites that give teaser tips on resume writing then later on ask me to pay them and do the writing for me. I kept on reading, finally, i found one that does make sense.

I am amazed how this person took time to write articles on resume writing, i can’t help but to note his remarkable insight:

Eight seconds is the amount of time that a professional bull rider must stay on his bull in a rodeo. That is also the span of time that your resume has to catch the attention of a potential employer. Is it a keeper or does it get relegated to “The Pile?”

He shares his tips and tricks on how to write a resume that will get you noticed by prospective employers. Based on his 25 years experience as both a hiring manager and as an executive recruiter, you only have “8 seconds” to make your impression with the resume reviewer. He also provides free mini-course on the secrets of the professional resume writers.

I’ve just finished reading the 9th part of his articles on resume writing, i cannot wait for his next article….

By the way, I am now working at a reputable and growing company in town, glad that there are people who shares their ideas on things. You’ve just earned hundreds of kudos for that.
