Preparing resumes for leadership positions requires a special talent. First and foremost, the writer must be a former executive in order to fully understand the scope of responsibilities. The writer should have a MBA degree, be widely recognized and published, and have national recognition. Alfred Fred) Mariani is the president of Resumes Etc. T...
Read MoreFailure to send a Thank You, post job interview, can be a job killer. I have found that even a Thank You email falls short of an actual handwritten Thank You Card. It means the job candidate took the time to stop at a card store, purchase a card and write a personalized Thank You. Now what does that say about the person? It says, Appreciation, T...
Read MoreI'm not going to state the obvious like spelling and grammar errors, they are a given. 1) Having a friend or family member do your resume. They may have a noble intent, but they can do more damage than good. 2) Doing your own resume. Unless you have access to ATS tracking systems, you can't possibly know what the software is looking for. 3) Bein...

Read MoreHow you look on paper often communicates potential value to an employer. If your resume reads like a list of tasks or a job description, there is no value associated with your background. On the other hand, a resume that consists of bullet points that demonstrate the skills that make you unique, results driven and high energy, an employer will pe...

Given this reality, we have an entire team dedicated to relocation strategies with job search strategies to find our clients employment before they make their physical move. It's a step by s...
Read MoreMany professionals are reluctant to jump back into the workforce for 2 reasons, and both are related to COVID. The first group fears that employers will mandate vaccination as a condition of employment. These individuals are reluctant to be vaccinated out of fear of long term health consequences. Group 2 is seeing a rapid rise in COVID cases, par...
Read MoreThere are so many 1-800 services that are based overseas with little or no real credentials. Don't be fooled by resume writing certification that can be acquired in a few days by taking a class. You want to focus on several key factors. 1) Does the writer have an advanced degree, preferably a MBA? 2) Does the writer have fortune 500 executive exp...
