Anyway, you know - The Force - from which Luke Skywalker (among many other Jedi's, and Sith for that matter) were able to wield lightsabers, conduct mind tricks and open locked doors. In this article, I want to focus on the latter of those three: Opening locked doors.<br />
<br />
Specifically, I'm speaking of opening the locked doors of job interviews. Wouldn't it be grand to have The Force when it comes to job interview door opening? I mean, seriously, how many muggles (oops, crossing multi-billion dollar sci-fi conglomeration boundaries - let me back-up), er, non-jedi's are able to open a job interview door wide open, much less get our foot in the door. If you're a muggle...er, non-jedi, read on...<br />
<br />
I will share with you three strategies that I have learned that immensely aid in opening that door. Here goes:<br />
<br />
1. <i>Make sure job industry-relevant keywords and key-phrases are included in your resume</i>. These days, in the marvel-of-a-technological world we live in most companies (Read ALL Fortune 1,000 companies, and a vast majority of what would be considered as mid-level companies) utilize resume scanning technology. If you even want to have a chance to enter into a discussion with someone in that company, include relevant keywords and key-phrases.<br />
<br />
2.<i> Acquire referrals</i>. What I mean here is that you utilize your family, friends and acquaintances. Use word-of-mouth to get your foot in the door for a job interview. If you do by chance have family owning a certain business - your chance of getting an interview for the position you are looking for is that much better. Don't be too proud and pull a Walter White - utilize your available resources and get that job!<br />
<br />
3. <i>Utilize the Golden Rule</i>. I know, sounds a bit lame and ultra non-business, but hear me out. What I have learned in business and life is this: You will be treated as you have treated others. Therefore, if you were rejected at a job interview, be gracious. I have heard examples of numbers of clients who have acquired a job, even when they didn't nab the first interview. However, they were they were grateful for the opportunity, and pleasant to the interviewer and... guess what - they got a call-back within a day. <br />
<br />
The point is, you never know what all of your efforts will accomplish in attaining a job interview. However, these three points will definitely head you in the right direction.<br />
<br />
As always, let me know if you have any questions or thoughts concerning resumes.<br />
<br />
Also, I welcome ideas and thoughts for future articles. Let me know, and thanks for reading.<br />

Don't be shy or too proud to admit it. This job market is tough (and I should know, I work with hundreds of job seekers each year trying to get their individual dream job).<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So... If you are honest enough to admit that you have the "Job Search Blues" - here are some pointers to get you through:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. Make sure your resume (and accordingly your job search plan) are targeted enough and effectively. There is nothing that will kill a job search quicker than a "shotgun" approach to the job search. You need to have that "rifle" focus. Don't get too general - be direct, targeted and focused.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2. Ask for help, and encouragement. A kind word of support or encouragement will go a long way. Actual, honest help will go even further. Both are essential for your job search. Although it is more than possible without, support throughout your job search will make the process and time period that much easier and less stressful. Never be too proud to ask for help, or encouragement.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3. "Never, never, never give up." I know, I plagiarized a bit (more than kudos to Sir Winston Churchill) this quote, but the message stands for all time - don't give up your job search, no matter what! And, besides, the more you try and keep pushing through your job search, the more practice you will acquire, and the more effective you will be at it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So, if you have the "Job Search Blues," - check and double check your resume and job search strategy, garner support and assistance, and never, ever give up. If you work on these points in full, you will be on your way out of the blues, and into the funky dance music (or whatever music comes up in your mind when you get hired - maybe angels singing?) that much faster.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
As always, let me know if you need any help or assistance in your job search, and good luck!</div>

And when they look over a resume, the first and most important thing they are looking for are achievements and accomplishments. Sadly, most job applicants don’t offer them anything but a list of where they worked and where they were educated, totally neglecting their achievements. Next time, sell yourself to the hirer by adding your top career achievements to your resume.

Use active and powerful – as opposed to passive – words and phrases. Bring attention to what you accomplished for other companies and what you can achieve for your next employer.

Is one page still "in"? Are two-pagers more effective? Does it matter? And then there is always the question: Is it really a no-no to make my resume more than two pages? <div><br /></div><div>I am going to attempt to answer this question here once and for all. Are you ready for the answer? Here it is: It depends. There, I will now end my shortest article ever, akin to a Twitter tweet.</div><div><br /></div><div>Just joking - I'll explain what I mean here briefly and elaborate on some details. A good rule of thumb when it comes to resumes is this: There are no hard and fast rules. By this I mean that a resume should reflect you effectively, accurately and powerfully - and how can something set in stone with hard and fast rules give you justice? My point exactly. </div><div><br /></div><div>Okay - I know you are dying for some rules (or else why would you be reading this?). So here goes. Student or entry level job seekers (someone just entering the professional job market or with 3 or less years of experience within that market), as a rule, should keep their resume to one page. The reason for this is because those with little work experience won't have a need (in most cases) for two pages to contain their experiences. Here's another hard and fast rule: Resumes should never include "fluff." Focus on your top talents, skills and training within an entry level resume, and that should usually stay within the bounds of one page easily. There may be exceptions, like I said, such as doctorate resumes within the medical or academic fields. But as a rule, when an entry, keep it on one.</div><div><br /></div><div>Now, let's briefly consider the "over two pages" discussion. Again - a hard and fast rule is that resumes should never include fluff. With this in mind, also remember that your resume should not include everything about you or your work experience or your training / education or your skills. It should only focus on and include the top information - information that will get you an interview. You can (and should) elaborate on any additional information at the interview.</div><div><br /></div><div>Again, there are certain examples where more than two pages are necessary. Highly intellectual, scientific and academic careers - which often include many publications, presentations and affiliations - may need to stretch to four or five pages to include all the necessary information. It just depends. </div><div><br /></div><div>In conclusion, here is a good rule of thumb when determining your resume's length. Do you feel like you are trying to make it fit to a certain length of pages? Or squeezing it shorter? Whatever you do, make it natural (although there will always be some minor stretching or squeezing to fit the resume to an exact finish on the page you end with). Keep it yourself, focus on the best you have to offer and it'll work out great.</div><div><br /></div><div>.......</div><div><br /></div><div>Want an individual estimate of what you need page-wise?

If you are one, pat yourself on the back. I know it's tough to oversee the operations of an office environment, keep supplies stocked, schedule morale-improving events and decipher hand-written, coded notes from executives which you are to transform into pleasant- and professional-looking letters, reports or PowerPoint presentations. If I could, I would give you all a raise, because I'm sure you deserve it. <div><br /></div><div>Being, however, that I don't have that power or ability, I'll provide you with the next best thing - and perhaps more valuable: How to nab and keep a good administrative position. </div><div><br /></div><div><b>1. Pick a company.</b></div><div><br /></div><div>As with any other job that you are searching for, after you have a target position (in this case office or executive administration), proactively choose your company. This is very important when it comes to an administrative career - because your duties and responsibilities could be very different. </div><div><br /></div><div>For example, perhaps one option is a shipping company. You may be working with accounting, bookkeeping, scheduling, data management, etc. Another may be executive assistance. This may entail scheduling, communication, coordination, report writing, etc. Practically two different jobs. So make sure to choose your company.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>2. Target your resume toward individual company(ies).</b></div><div><br /></div><div>Make sure to not just send out the same resume to every job opening available. Tweak it as needed. Remember keywords, and especially update the cover letter as needed. Individualize each resume you send out - and see for yourself the difference it makes.</div><div><br /></div><div><b>3. Once you're in the job you want, keep it by doing everything you can to make your direct boss look good.</b></div><div><br /></div><div>In today's business world of "survival of the fittest," this can seem naive at best, and suicidal at worst. But it will - in 95% of cases that I have seen (and I have seen a lot) - help you keep your job (and even work you toward promotions). If your boss wants you to bend over backwards to "save his skin" so to speak, or gives you tasks that he should really be doing - do them - and with a smile. </div><div><br /></div><div>For example, I have been working with a nice lady that is seeking to apply within her company for a higher position. And the biggest advantage she has is because she had a "yes, sir" attitude when her superior asked her to perform certain detailed, difficult tasks that he should have been doing. Now she has essential know-how for the position she is applying for, something no one else has in her same position because she worked hard to make her boss look good. Now she is looking good in her job search.</div><div><br /></div><div>In conclusion, it is a tough market out there, especially for administrative professionals. There are a lot of you, and only so many positions. However, apply these points, and you will have a hugely better chance at collecting and keeping that administrative position you have always wanted. </div><div><br /></div><div>.......</div><div><br /></div><div>For more help in your job search, visit my <a href="http://www.savvyscriberesumes.com/">professional resume service</a> and request some of the services we offer.

On a scale of 1-10? What is it? <div><br /></div><div>Now let me ask you another hard question. One you probably don't want to hear: How hard are you working on your job search? One a scale of 1-10? What is it? </div><div><br /></div><div>As I "tweeted" on Twitter today, if you don't work 8-10 hours a day on your job search, you are kicking yourself in the foot. You aren't going to get as far as you would like. However, if you do put in the hours in diligent work and effort - job position scanning, emailing, phone chatting, interviewing, researching, talent evaluating - you will be rewarded greatly, even in this lackadaisical economy in America. </div><div><br /></div><div>Now the question is: What should you be doing? As I briefly mentioned above, you need to be nailing down the position you fit best into, researching the companies you have an interest in working for, drafting emails and cover letters and post interview letters to hirers - in short: Doing everything you can to get the job you want. </div><div><br /></div><div>In conclusion, don't sit back on your laurels as you are unemployed. When you don't have a job, that is the time to take pride in your ability to prove yourself as a diligent, hard, dedicated worker. </div><div><br /></div><div>Don't think that job is going to come to you - take that job for yourself!</div><div><br /></div><div>.......</div><div><br /></div><div>Need more detailed and specific job search help?

Today's recipient of the job position you have been desiring is... _____. Fill in the blank. Okay, can I be a bit nosy? Was it <i>you</i>? No! Why not!?<div><br /></div><div>Let me be frank with you. I have chatted with hirers, employers, recruiters, HR managers - from various companies spanning from IBM to General Electric to Home Depot to Uncle Joe's Ice Cream Stand. Let me share an important secret (well, it used to be a secret until now) with you: They don't want to see where you've worked or even what you've done - they want to see what you can do for them. Now, this may seem a bit complicated and you may wonder how to do this. I will tell you (for free, just in case you were wondering).</div><div><br /></div><div>Too many resumes focus on past job history, duties, responsibilities, even projects. These are not in and by themselves bad. But your resume needs to be an eye-catcher. It needs to say something that screams, "You need to read me right now or else you will regret it." And why would they regret it? That's where your achievements come in. </div><div><br /></div><div>Achievements in a resume can be anything from how you expanded market reach to how you increased customer satisfaction to improving office work efficiencies to growing sales to skyrocketing the company mailing list. And the list goes on...</div><div><br /></div><div>Now here's another secret: The keys I've found to making your achievements reach out to the reader from the computer screen or watermarked resume paper page are (1) to set your best achievements apart from the rest of the text with bullets and (2) to include metrics with your achievements. Metrics - in case you're wondering - are measurements of your achievement success - including percentages, dollars, volume, scores and more. A good hint is to include numbers in your achievements. Numbers (along with % and $) stand out from the rest of the page of text. They will get noticed. And you will be happy they did.</div><div><br /></div><div>.......</div><div><br /></div><div>If you need more help related to your job search or are looking for a <a href="http://www.savvyscriberesumes.com/">professional resume service</a>, visit <a href="http://www.savvyscriberesumes.com">here</a>.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer">___________________________________________________
