New Article: The Military to Civilian Resume
"The most valuable commodity I know of is information" Gordon Gekko, Wall Street, 1987
This current job market can be very unfriendly. This is most true for jobseekers that aren't currently experienced about writing a resume. Without a professional-looking resume, how can you expect to standout from the hundreds or even thousands of other resumes that are resting in the piles of Human Resource offices around the country? You can't!! No. Not in this market. I'm sorry to be so blunt, but one look at the news and you'll see that unemployment rate hit a 26 year high http://www.marketwatch.com/story/unemployment-rate-hits-102-in-october-2009-11-06-83100weeblylink_new_window .
Now is the time to put yourself in a position to stand out from the crowd, which is why you're here in the first place. Having a professional Resume AND Cover Letter is crucial to your success.
Best of Luck,
R. Spriggs
