What kind of impact on your job search would happen if your resume and cover letters gave you a competitive edge in capturing employers’ attention?
Must people tell me they find writing their resume hard, and their cover letters even harder. It’s understandable since these documents must sell you to an employer in less than 15 seconds. They also must contain the appropriate keywords to come up during any electronic search. Without a format, employer desired reference guide, and solid samples, most people are pretty lost and do a poor job in creating these personal advertisements.
“My dream job called after I mailed my first cover letter and resume. I landed the job and owe it all to Robin Ryan's effective techniques.” -- Marianne Jones, Program Manager, REI
I've spent twenty years writing resumes and cover letters. In my private practice I’ve helped a couple of thousand people create resumes and cover letters that landed jobs. It was because of their success that I spent over six months surveying employers, conducting interviews, and fine-tuning the process I use with clients to create these books so that you could learn the most effective strategies and techniques to craft effective resumes and cover letters for yourself. The books are loaded with direct quotes from actual HR & hiring managers throughout on what mistakes to avoid, such as never using a font size smaller than 11, or not using generic statements since its results statements that employers want to read.
In order to make the writing process easier for you, I created two processes – goldmining technique for resume writing, and the power impact technique to craft cover letters. I included dozens of clients sample since these are REAL resumes & cover letters that got REAL people REAL jobs.
I think you’ll find the national survey of 600 hiring managers we conducted as the foundation of these two books is very insightful and directive. On the audio tapes I will assist you in creating powerful statements to sell your skills.
Additionally, I have included an MS Word CD that has the actual templates for letters and resumes styles that employers love. These will insure you create top notch self-marketing tools.
