How One Client Landed Their Dream Job Using Story-Based Resume Writing

Image
 Most people think job hunting starts with searching job boards.  But in reality, it starts with your story. This is the story of how one client, feeling completely overlooked, landed their dream job — all because their resume finally told the truth about who they really were. Not with fluff. Not with buzzwords. But with real, honest storytelling crafted by someone who took the time to listen. The Mistake Most Job Seekers Make Let’s be honest: most resumes are boring. They list duties. They throw in some fancy verbs. But they don’t say anything real. Hiring managers see these every day — and forget them just as fast. What’s missing? A clear, personal narrative that explains what you do, how you’ve made a difference, and why someone should care. Why Storytelling Works Think about it. What do you remember better: a list of facts or a good story? That’s why story-based resume writing works. It doesn’t just show that you’ve had jobs — it shows how you’ve created value, why you t...

Why Employee Self-Evaluations Offer Benefits for Employer and Employee

Standard employee performance reviews open up constructive communication between managers and employees, but sometimes this traditional form of evaluation alone isn't adequate. Employee self-evaluations are a viable alternative that are becoming more and more prevalent in the workplace. Employee Self-Evaluations vs. Traditional Performance Reviews In general, though, employee self-reviews are not conducted in order to ensure a raise, promotion, or a coveted bonus. Rather, they are used to help initiate a dialogue, encourage personal growth, and facilitate employee development. Unlike traditional reviews (which can minimize an employee's sense of control), self-reviews give people the opportunity to correct problems in a nonjudgmental manner. In addition, instead of simply telling employees what they're doing right or wrong, a self-review offers an introspective point of view. Conventional reviews tend to focus on the very high performers and those whose performance is below...

A Job Hunter's Nightmare: When a Recruiter Crosses the Line

Image
Can you imagine working with a recruiter on your seemingly confidential job search, and you find out your recruiter crossed the line? When my client told me he was terminated from his job, I wondered why. He was an absolute star performer and had a track record of success that didn’t quit. In fact, he was actively being sought after by multiple companies. Several things came to mind. Maybe he posted his resume on Monster. Maybe he told someone at work that he was looking for a job and that backfired on him. Maybe he left his resume in his printer. No, not a chance in hell. As the story goes, the recruiter he was working with on a job search happened to know the president of the company he was working for. The recruiter sent the president an email saying my client was searching for a new job, in addition to revealing other intimate details of my client's frustration with his current company. Within the hour, my client was contacted by his boss and immediately fired. Is the...
