RESUME WRITING: HOW TO GET THAT JOB THAT I REALLY WANT

Front page news like the one reported by the Straits Times on 21 April 2016 (see pic) are becoming more and more common.
PMETs especially older ones and those in the manufacturing sector seem the hardest hit and bear the brunt amid rapid rise in layoffs.
So, what would you do if you happen to be one of those told to pack up and leave by 3 pm on that dreadful and awful day? Weeping and cursing, and blaming others won't solve your problem or find you a new job. In fact, such actions may work against you.
Relax and stay calm. Go for a short holiday and re-charge your battery. You must take a good look at and scrutinise your resume - that resume you have stored somewhere in your computer is your career passport. This is the only tool that can help you get that job that you really want. That resume must set you apart from all other competitors. Do you stand out from the crowd, and on your own resume? Do you think that it can convincingly sell you to the next employer?

GETTING THAT JOB THAT I WANT

GETTING THAT JOB THAT I WANT
Media report after media report points to one key employment issue - "More Layoffs", "Middle-Aged Execs Caught in Double Bind" etc. Getting that job that I want becomes more and more elusive. Also, it takes a much longer time to land a job - some manage to find one after 12 to 15 months after embarking on the initial jobsearch.
The call for one to have a world-class, outstanding RESUME has also been voiced by the media, recruiters, hiring professionals, government-related job agencies. And we at Successful Resumes and Career Management Institute have been advocating this for decades. Your resume is your "Career Passport". So, it definitely pays to invest your time and some money on this document.

Creating that Smashing First Good Impression

Which is more important - taking the job interview seriously or first impressions?
During any job interview, you would have been pre-judged on your appearance, clothing and body language and your fate decided on even before the actual face-to-face interview. Your next employer would want you not only to take your job interview seriously but also to take care of your appearance and body language.
If you are confident about your appearance you will project the right professional image. In this age when job seekers face fierce competition for coveted positions, creating that smashing first good impression is paramount and should be taken seriously.
