Welcome to Developing a Killer Resume or CV. I am so excited that you are considering this course.

The first step to elevating your career to the next level is to market your job-related qualifications in an effective, high-impact manner. The candidate of choice is not always the person who has the most experience. It is often the person who knows how to strategically share their knowledge, skills, and abilities, with prospective employers. This course walks you step-by-step through the process of selecting the most-appropriate type of resume for your uniquely individual job search. We start with educating you regarding the types of resumes that exist. We then, show you how to create a business-appropriate resume/CV header that represents your personal professional brand. Then, we guide you through selecting a user-friendly format for your resume/CV content. We help you develop an information listing strategy to maximize the positive impact of your qualifications on recruiters and hiring managers and make them want to learn more about the value that you can offer their team.
