Robert Nemanich is now providing personal resume evaluation and resume development and writing services to the executive and senior management professional. Let's face it the job market is in serious shape and it will only become far more competitive as the US economy restructures and reformulates under a 21st Century system. The financial bubbles have burst and now it is survival for you and me.
That does not mean that there will not be hiring, in fact hiring might spike in micro markets seeking managers and professionals who will be perceived to perform in this new economy. The problem is that competition will be fierce even for your resume to be read, let alone recognized as a candidate that meets these new requirements.
Most executive resumes I have read over my 20 plus years in the industry, in all honestly STINK. This is not surprising since most professionals are not knowledgeable nor experienced developing nor writing this specialized communications medium. No different than the same professionals are well versed in writing public relation releases, or designing marketing brochures or writing scripts for broadcast advertisements---even though practically anyone has Microsoft Office and use WORD to make these communication products, yet this is why we laugh at local car dealer TV commercials or simply toss many small business tri-folds who tell us little or project nothing outside of what we can learn from a phone call.
Resumes, especially professional or executive resumes who represent individuals who are at the top of their field are no different in the demand for discriminating resumes. It goes deeper than customizing a resume for each job listing, it goes to being able to tell a compeling story about the individual in this structured medium. Most resumes lack the depth and specifics of how and why an executive has accomplished differing experiences, nor do they properly describe the context those unmentioned accomplishments were made. Consequently in the ten seconds that a person reads a resume they are not impressed and move on to read another.
Consequently Robert Nemanich is now offering personalized services where he will review and provide you a detailed report of your resume for $25.00. The report will identify the 6-key factors:
- Overall readablility, presentation and command---"does it allow the reader to be grabbed"
- "Did you "Set the Hook?" Does your resume entice the reader to read beyond the 10 second glance?
- Who are you? Have you introduced yourself to anyone succinctly and cohently that they can introduce you to others easily in an opening paragraph?
- The 6-W's, presentation of your evidence of your expertise/capabilities. Have presented your case of who, what, where, when, how and why.
- Have you told a compeling story about your professional life?
- Is this resume a "short staker"?
A followup service will be offered where resumes can be revised or complelely be rewritten and restructured for an advance fee. Revision fee's will entail less than one hour of work or $60.00. A restructure will entail a minimum of 2 hours ($120.00) , some resumes might need more time. For these services a respondent must provide a minimum of 5 job postings from the Internet or newspapers which the professional has recently submitted his/her resume or will be submitting their resume. Robert Nemanich will provide a form to be completed for the resume revision or reconstruction. All fees must be paid up front to Pay Pal before services will be given. Revisions and Reconstruction efforts will include one phone call consultation and proof read revision.
All customers will receive a weekly email newsletter of leads, strategies and tips regarding job search in this executive marketplace.
