The fundamentals of an awesome resume

Most resumes are pretty bad. Some of them are really bad. If you feel like yours might be one of these don’t beat yourself up over it for even a second. Resumes generally aren’t bad because you lack talent or you’re not a genuinely awesome human being. They’re bad in large part because crafting a killer resume is hard for nearly everybody. Even for executive level professionals, even these people when it comes to writing a resume get stuck. So why exactly are resumes so hard? Well firstly many people don't understand the game and how important it is to factor that into your resume and application. Secondly, because people struggle to explain what they do by second nature, or they struggle with how far into depth to go when explaining their roles and experience. Thirdly, because a lot of people cringe when it comes to writing about themselves in a way that truly showcases their talents and their strengths to a hiring manager or a recruiter. You know, in western culture we're raised not to brag too much and to be humble right? And lastly, writing an effective resume is a skill like any other - it takes lots of practice. How often do people write their resumes? Well sometimes as infrequently as once a decade! How on earth can we become skilled with that frequency? Don't beat yourself up, contact me today!

How does someone end up becoming a Resume Writer?

It's certainly something that I seem to keep circling back to. For me, the journey started with working in the recruitment industry. I landed a job with an engineering recruitment consultancy which involved me preparing candidates resumes before they were presented to clients for consideration. And to be perfectly blunt, I was shocked at the state that resumes were being sent in to our company. I mean, these are Engineers and Architects?! Well-educated individuals that are supposed to have attention to detail?

I found myself writing resumes for friends and family, giving advice on how to present their resumes in a format that is easy on the eyes and quick to scan through to pick up the important parts.

After a year in this role and no foreseeable job progression, I found myself desperate to move on to another job. I applied for many government roles without success, until I asked a friend from hockey for help. She was on the selection committee of a government department (not the one I was applying for), and gave me a few more points on my resume but a lot on my selection criteria. So I submitted my application and although I was unsuccessful, I received a call from the department to tell me my resume and application were excellent and to keep applying. I suspect the position was already filled internally, and someone was disappointed for me so they reached out to encourage me.

Over time with each success, both with my applications and others, I realised that I had some serious skills in resume and selection criteria writing, and that my passion was to help people succeed in finding a new job.
