Resume Tip – Be a Knight in Shining Armor!
Do you want to be a hero?
Who doesn’t want to hire a knight in shining armor, ready to take on the problems of the day?
When you focus on your resume, don’t just focus on you and what you offer. Remember to focus on the target - the potential employer. It is just as important to know what the employer wants as it is to know your own skills and accomplishments!
Figure out what problems your target organization is trying to solve. Sometimes, this is easy to discover by reading their website and job description. Other times, informational interviews and keeping up with the news of the day helps. (If the Wall Street Journal just ran an article about the organization, you’ll want to be sure to know about it!) Be sure to Google the organization; don’t just rely on what they say about themselves. What are others saying about them?
Once you know their needs, determine why and how YOU can provide the answers to their problems. Make a clear connection on your resume. Show them that you are their knight in shining armor, slaying dragons left and right.
