Career Success-Resume & Portfolio Design (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781548251932)

The scope of the Career Success is to provide you with the best possible skills and tools to present yourself in writing and ultimately help you accomplish your career objectives effectively, efficiently and productively. In other words, identify and land the ideal career, not just a job, with the best possible benefits. In doing so, you will learn how to secure the best career opportunity, for the skills, knowledge and expertise you possess. - Do you want to astonish any interviewer with a resume that's second to none, opens doors and it distinguishes you from your competition? - Do you realize that nobody was ever hired based on the resume alone, but many have been eliminated because of it? - Do you know that a successful career search begins well before the first word is spoken? - Can your resume describe how your credentials and accomplishments can benefit the company? - Do you know how to surpass your competition by identifying career opportunities in the unpublished market? - Can you set yourself apart from your competition by designing a Professional Personal Portfolio? - Are you using the five types of resumes professionals use? o The Video resume o The Recruiter's resume o The Electronic resume o The Spontaneous resume and o The Interview resume o If you have a video resume, what social media is it posted on? - Do you have your own web site with your web resume, accomplishments and credentials for potential employers to look at? - Are you applying the chronological or functional approach to resume design? If so you are using a 30-year old technique, which is no longer effective. We apply the S.A.R. state-of-the-art approach, explained in the book. In addition to the above: - Do you know what the unpublished market is? That's where the best careers are. - Do you have a two-minute commercial about yourself? - Do you have a list of your skills and accomplishments handy and memorized? - Do you know what should be included in your compensation package? - Do you understand the significance of traditional and social media? - Do you know how to design a professional video-resume on social media? - Do you have your personal web site for your career search? - Do you know how to get influential people to help you with your career search? - Do you know what traits recruiters, human resource and hiring managers are looking for? Finally you should understand the purpose of: - Business cards, and how they should be designed - E-mails and how they should be written - Pre-approach letters and when to use them - The employment application - Cover letters - Most importantly, the resume with all different variations - Letters written to negotiate salary and other offerings - The Personal Professional Portfolio, how and when should it be used. Indeed that's what makes this book distinct. The book covers all actions and documents that are needed after the interview. Here you have the "Interview Assessment" the "do's and don'ts" of follow-ups, what to do when you receive an offer for employment or a letter of rejection. Another element people like most, is the 43 items you can negotiate for, after an offer is made and the techniques shown on how to counteroffer in order to obtain the best compensation package. Finally let me submit the following: Based on this book we offer a two-day workshop. To prove to you how confident we are about the results we bring, we offer the workshop with the following guarantee: If you do what we suggest during the workshop and you don't get multiple interviews in 60-90 days, we refund your money, NO QUESTIONS ASKED.
