Resume Review

OK so I got some feedback from my friend on my resume. She was lovingly brutal but at least I am finally starting to address some of the issues.

“Your resume is like a foreign language to me and I don’t understand half the terminology or shit you did, in business language!! I need to rewrite the entire thing so that it appeals to a business executive, but really need some help from you too on translations. I had a couple people look at both resumes and the first thing they said was way too much information, too detailed and not punchy on the stuff you really want to emphasize. Also does not leverage the bachelor’s degree.”

So today I will be diving into my resume and I will start the process of identifying myself as a Corporate Trainer. How exciting is that? At least I am developing a focus. The next thing that I think I need to do is to create a job search strategy. Where do I even begin to find Corporate Training positions? I have only dealt in the health care arena. What steps have you taken to develop a job search strategy?
