In times of tough job markets, getting invited for a job interview can be like winning a lottery. It is often said that “resumes are your ticket to job searching success.” Are your resumes ready to land you that ever-elusive job interview?
Yes, you read that right. Resumes plural. The days of one size fits all resumes are long gone. Your resume needs to be a living, breathing document that can customize you for each job opportunity.
You won’t win a lottery if you don’t have a ticket and you are unlikely to be invited for a job interview if you don’t have a dynamic, effective resume that features you as the solution to a problem. Your resume is your ticket that leads to being invited for an interview where you can expand upon your value.

In many ways, it’s like getting out of school all over again and poses challenges on what experiences you can leverage to your advantage.
Maybe you are at a crossroads in your life and are changing careers. Will your earlier experience be of any use in a new career? We think so. Resumes are still the not-so-secret weapon to landing a job. The content is excerpted from Your hired job search strategies that work. Hiring managers are under pressure to hire the right candidate. Your task is to become the only choice. The right choice.
