What is the best resume writing service?

Filed under Q&A

I’ve been unemployed for over a year now and I can’t understand why. I have a PhD from Harvard, 10 years of working experience yet employers don’t seem to want to interview me. My only conclusion is that my resume must be abysmal (i.e. terrible, sucky, below par). Has anyone tried out a professional resume writing service? If so, what were the results? How much did it cost you?

March 20, 2012 by admin  
Filed under Q&A

I know that job hunting is considered to be time consuming but what I meant by my initial question was what can I do to improve my job hunting so I can get the maximum results for the time alloted to me? I’ve already tried the usual search engines such as Yahoo Hot Jobs, Monster, The Daily News, etc. I’ve even asked my friends for recommendations but so far I haven’t gotten any results. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Does anyone have any good interviewing tips?

Filed under Q&A

I have been out of the workforce for several years while raising a family. I’m finally looking to go back to work, and I am hopeful that I will get an interview with the most recent place that I applied. It is a social service agency serving developmentally disabled adults. This is right up my alley – while I didn’t get a degree in social work, I was a senior when I dropped out of school. I have experience working in another social service agency, as well.

If you have any good tips at all about interviewing, I would greatly appreciate hearing them!

Thanks.
Ok, first step complete! I got a call for an interview!
:)

Thanks for all of the great answers so far!

Are resume writing services worth the $$$? How do you know which ones are actually good companies?

March 10, 2012 by admin  
Filed under Q&A

I’m trying to reformat my resume in hopes to find a different job. The one I have right now sort of just looks like a laundry list of everything I’ve done. I’m wondering if it’s worth to invest money into a resume writing service, and if so, which one to choose. There’s so many out there on the internet and they talk about how some companies use the same templates over and over while others custom write. They also differ between using online questionaires and actual phone interviews to obtain information about you. In the end, is it just better to write it myself? I’m not confident I could get it to come out as well as a professional.

What are the best job search websites these days?

March 8, 2012 by admin  
Filed under Q&A

I might have to start job searching in a couple of months due to a potential layoff. I haven’t been in the job market for several years, and I know there are a ton of new job search websites out there since then. Used to be that Monster was pretty much it! I have a bachelor’s and about 20 years experience in the marketing/advertising field. I would appreciate recommendations for professional sites that offer more than just a bunch of entry-level stuff and bogus sales jobs.

How do you start a Resume Writing home business?

March 3, 2012 by admin  
Filed under Q&A

I want to start a small business- perhaps a home business of Resume Writing. There are tons of programs and software on the market. Pricing is what I am having difficulty with. What is reasonable…etc. I write well, and my resume has landed me 2nd in line for three great positions within my organization. I know– this certainly does not make me the Resume Writing Queen.. Just want to put my skills to work for others.

Is there anyone out there that would recommend advice?
