| | Resume Writing and Interviewing Skills Workshop | | | With unemployment at 13% there are plenty of job candidates available to employers. You will have to differentiate yourself in a meaningful way to land a position in this market.
How? The 2 keys are your resume and your interviewing skills!
Let’s workshop on resume presentations and interviewing skills. Get practical coaching on how to best prepare for an interview. Every interview situation is unique and job seekers must be aware of how they present their Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities.
If participants approach these meetings with an open mind and a willingness to share and take chances in a supportive environment, they are very likely to improve their interviewing presentation skills. Bring interview questions you dread and we will role play your troubles away.
Bring your resume and we'll make sure your written presentation is working for you. Resume errors are costly! If you are in a confidential job search situation and don't want to "join" the group....just email me at doug@crescentsr.com and tell me you are coming!
Cadillac Ranch located in Town Square has invited us to use their fabulous room. Hours of this meeting are 6:30pm to 8:00pm. Lucky for us, it's happy hour so there will be 50% off drinks and $7 appetizers! (Separate Checks). We are also welcome to grab a table afterward to socialize, build relationships, and network.
We are planning to meet every other Wednesday.

Don't take a chance with poor formatting, disorganized career information or missing facts and figures that you need to differentiate you from the competition.
