Comment from Resume post…

Thought you would enjoy this!

Marsha,

Kudos for some good advice on resume writing!  As a certified professional resume writer for many years (I no longer actively market this service as I’ve moved onto other interests), your advice is quite spot on.  Even though resumes people have all the information that is necessary to create a resume, few have any clue how to create that “effective” document that will get them a second glance.  A well-written, concise and attractive presentation are critical, especially in competitive job markets.

Employee Survival in Turbulent Economic Times

If your work situation is facing a high-degree of economic turbulence, there are very specific strategies that you can apply whether you are a leader or an employee. This topic is so hot, that I recently added a new presentation to my speaking repertoire – Smart Moves in Tough Times.

Write Your Employees Resumes

Did you read the brilliant post from Noel? Absolutely spot on! Now here is the real news. Gen Y expects you to constantly train them with personal development ideas and move them to the next level. If you don’t do it, they will leave you and find someone else that will! Or if they don’t leave, they will become a difficult person and create a chain reaction of low morale.

So if you already know that, why wouldn’t build loyalty by helping them build a resume that will help them succeed! The downside is if you don’t have a “next step” for them, they will take their marbles to the next game. The upside is the building of trust and loyalty.
