and you’ve already familiarized yourself with the responsibilities of your new
position. Have you researched your new co-workers though? Have you done any research
since you accepted the offer? <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashley-desimone-72700737/" target="_blank">Ashley DeSimone</a>, from our New York office,
advises </span>“taking a look on LinkedIn for the employees
that are currently working there, reading information on Glassdoor, and checking
Google to see if any new articles have been published online about your new
company.” Although not required, it doesn’t hurt to be extra prepared for your
first day.</span></span><br />

you should have a good perspective on the company culture and overall office atmosphere.

<span style="background-color: white; color: rgba(0 , 0 , 0 , 0.75); font-family: "source serif pro" , serif; font-size: 20px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "source serif pro" , serif;">So, you landed the interview. Here are some things to think about before you head out the door!</span><br />
<ol style="background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75); font-family: "Source Serif Pro", serif; line-height: 32px; margin: 3.2rem 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<li style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; margin: 2.4rem 0px 2.4rem 3.2rem; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Paperwork!</span> Take a few copies of your resume. A one on one interview can quickly turn into a panel interview! Also, it’s possible that you will be introduced to others who were not on the schedule (which is usually a very good sign)! Don't forget a list of references, any examples of work (that do not have confidential information), and those letters of recommendation.</li>
<li style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; margin: 2.4rem 0px 2.4rem 3.2rem; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">List of great questions!</span> Get creative with this. Do your research! Think of questions that not only highlight that you did your homework but also ask questions that help you showcase your skills!</li>
<li style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; margin: 2.4rem 0px 2.4rem 3.2rem; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">A nice portfolio!</span> Please do not take a manila folder. Yes, this has happened. Go out and buy yourself a decent portfolio. And make sure you have a pen to take notes! Yes, it’s ok to write something down during the interview or remind yourself of a question you want to ask at the end.</li>
<li style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; margin: 2.4rem 0px 2.4rem 3.2rem; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Your suit and a smile!</span> Yes, you should be wearing a suit! I can't even believe I still have to say that out loud. You only have one chance at a first impression. It’s always better to overdress, even on Fridays. Remember: You are interviewing for the job you want, not the one you have! Also, don't forget that smile. Positive energy is contagious!!!!</li>
<li style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; margin: 2.4rem 0px 2.4rem 3.2rem; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background: 0px 0px; border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Stories!</span> When you are working your way through the job description think of examples that apply. Try to make a short story out of it. The purpose of this is to create a picture in the interviewers' mind of you <u style="box-sizing: inherit;">doing the job</u>. Stories make a much bigger impact than canned answers.</li>
</ol>
<div style="background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); border: 0px; box-sizing: inherit; color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75); font-family: "Source Serif Pro", serif; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 3.2rem; margin-top: 3.2rem; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-small;">Article originally published on <a href="https://www.glassdoor.com/blog/managing-your-job-search/" target="_blank">Glassdoor</a> </span></div>
<div class="p1" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">When you’re actively looking for a new job, you can’t afford to wing it on the organizational front. Whether you apply for five jobs or 100, you’ll soon find yourself buried in an extraordinary number of resumes, cover letters, job descriptions and interview invitations. If you don’t keep them carefully organized, you may not identify the right opportunity — or worse, you’ll flounder when the right opportunity comes along.</span></div>
<div class="p1" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">If you want to stay on top of all of the applications, LinkedIn requests and other digital paraphernalia that go along with your job search, it’s time to break up with your bad organization habits. Here are seven techniques that will help you overcome the most common job hunt organization issues so that you know the where, what, who and how for your next interview:</span></div>
<h3 style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: 'liga' 0, 'clig' 0; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.01em; line-height: 24px; margin: 16px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: 32px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">1. If you aren’t good at organizing… figure out why</span></span></h3>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Organizational skills aren’t one-size-fits-all. There are just as many ways to be disorganized as there are to be organized. Instead of haphazardly applying “organization tactics” to your job search, try to identify specific ways that you tend to be disorganized and troubleshoot those issues directly.</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">For example, do you tend to lose hard copies? Digital apps will be where it’s at for you. But if you forget anything that isn’t written on pen and paper, a paper calendar or sticky note wall will be a better solution. And if you aren’t sure how you like to stay organized, try something new. If you’re usually an Apple Calendar kind of person, start using a paper planner, or vice versa.</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: 700; letter-spacing: 0.01em;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">2. If you have a hard time following up… use a spreadsheet</span></span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">When your job search is in full swing, it’s way too easy to send an email and forget it. Not only can this cost you when you aren’t following up at appropriate intervals, but it can also make you feel like you’re constantly treading water without getting anywhere. Your job hunt becomes an overwhelming, never-ending headache instead of a systematic, purposeful journey.</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Combat this by starting a detailed spreadsheet that tracks all the pertinent details of your job search, such as the company, job listing and contact details. As you move through the job hunt process (and the interview process), highlight the steps you’ve “completed” so you can show yourself just how much work you’ve done along the way.</span></div>
<h3 style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: 'liga' 0, 'clig' 0; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.01em; line-height: 24px; margin: 16px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: 32px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">3. If you need reminders… go high tech</span></span></h3>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">There’s nothing wrong with manual spreadsheets that lists all of the job search details you need to know if it’s working for you. But if it’s not working for you — if you frequently forget to update the spreadsheet and you’re never quite sure about what your next step should be — you need to take your job search into the 21st century with a free online project management tool like Trello or Wrike.</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Using a project management tool as a job seeker allows you to organize all of the job search details and automate when and to whom you should send a follow-up note. You can also adjust your settings to automatically receive reminders when it’s time to update the individual jobs or check in on the progress of the hiring manager.</span></div>
<h3 style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: 'liga' 0, 'clig' 0; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.01em; line-height: 24px; margin: 16px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: 32px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">4. If you’re a visual person… try sticky notes</span></span></h3>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">The sticky note wall is a tried-and-true organizational method that works for writing a book, setting goals and yes, getting a new job. First, pick a large wall you can divide into 3-4 columns. At the top of each column, mark out a different stage of the job process or your job search to-do list (e.g. “Draft Resume,” “Apply,” “Interview”). Then, write each job on a sticky note and set it in its appropriate column. As you work through your job hunt and make progress, move the sticky note to the next step.</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Not only can it be very motivating to see your progress in such a visual way, but it is easy to get a quick snapshot of where you are in the process by simply glancing at your sticky note wall. <span style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">Pro tip: You can also use the “Sticky Notes App” on your phone or computer if a digital version of the sticky notes would save you the wall space.</span></span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-style: inherit; font-variant-caps: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: inherit; font-weight: 700; letter-spacing: 0.01em;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">5. If you forget the details… keep thorough notes</span></span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">If you’re speaking to one or two prospective employers each week, it can be tough to remember who’s who and what you talked about. If you don’t take careful notes, you may unwittingly repeat yourself or send a thank-you note to the wrong person and reference the wrong conversation. Talk about awkward!</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">If that sounds like something that could happen to you, use a free tool like Microsoft OneNote or Evernote to keep track of the meetings you have. For extra memory help, pull the LinkedIn photo of the person you’re speaking with into the note sheet and capture notes like the person’s company, job title and location. Not only can you look at a picture of a real person when you’re in the midst of a phone screen interview, but you can also easily go back and remember who you spoke with when you’re considering job offers or writing thank-you notes.</span></div>
<h3 style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: 'liga' 0, 'clig' 0; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.01em; line-height: 24px; margin: 16px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: 32px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">6. If you’re losing motivation… make a list of reasons you’re searching</span></span></h3>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">If you find yourself putting off your job search or simply not looking forward to any part of the process, you’re letting the discomfort of a job hunt distract you from the reason you’re looking for a new job. Get back in the right headspace by bringing the focus back to what motivates you.</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Make a list of the reasons you’re looking for a new job — toxic workplace, skipped over for a promotion, low salary, etc. — and keep it in a prominent place. Not only will this motivate you to stick to your plan and find a new job, but it will also prepare you for the interviews ahead by keeping your deeper purpose of your job search front and center.</span></div>
<h3 style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-feature-settings: 'liga' 0, 'clig' 0; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-ligatures: no-common-ligatures; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.01em; line-height: 24px; margin: 16px 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: 700; line-height: 32px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: small;">7. If you’re feeling burned out… schedule some downtime</span></span></h3>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Little tasks can pile up, especially if you’re managing a full-time job during your job search. Instead of spending a whole day on your job hunt once a month and getting frustrated with your lack of progress, set short but regular periods of time to check in and make consistent progress. A half hour two or three times a week will ensure that you’re responding to hiring managers at appropriate intervals and staying on top of new opportunities as they come out.</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">A job search is a job of its own: you’re practicing time management, patience and even customer service as you balance your search with your current job. But you don’t have to let the complexity of all the resumes, cover letters, applications and interviews throw you off. Just find an organizational method that works for you so that the energy you put into the job search pays off with a new job — not a new headache!</span></div>
<div class="p3" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; margin-top: 16px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">

<span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">More and more, people are forming their first impression of you from the results of a web search on your name. When people are evaluating you in a professional capacity, they often go directly to your LinkedIn profile. But even if their research starts with Google, they’ll end up at LinkedIn because your profile will most likely be one of the top results.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">So you need to be concerned about what you put in your LinkedIn profile </span><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">—</span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">making sure it’s authentic, compelling to your audience and aspirational</span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">—</span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">positioning you for the future. You need to be equally focused on removing things from your profile that will get in the way of your success. You want all of the content to “wow” those who are making decisions about you.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Here are four things you should remove from your profile in order to make a positive impact on readers.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><strong style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">1. Wrong or irrelevant endorsements.</strong><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">Delete endorsements for the skills that you don’t want to be known for; they just muddy the waters. Personal branding is about being known for SOMEthing, not 10,000 things. That means you need to make your skills pure</span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">—</span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">positioning you for what’s next, not creating confusion among readers. “Is this person a marketing exec or a real-estate agent?” Make a list of all skills that are relevant to who you are and where you're going without looking at your LinkedIn profile. Then, take a look at the skills for which you have been endorsed. Is there a strong correlation? And make sure your top three skills perfectly reflect how you want to be known. Those are the ones that show up prominently when someone is looking at your profile. Viewers need to click “view more” to see the rest of your skills. And don’t worry about offending anyone. LinkedIn will not send a note to those who endorsed you when you remove their endorsements.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><strong style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">2. Experience that distracts from your brand aspirations.</strong><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">If you started your career in retail and now you’re all about pharmaceutical research, you want to diminish the past (unless you have a really good story about how it supports what you’re doing and what you want to be doing). Of course, it’s important to show progression in your career, so you may want to group roles from the past under one category like My Proving Ground or Internships and Early Career Experience.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<strong style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><strong style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">3. Low-quality images.</strong><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> I’m not just talking about your headshot. Any images you added to your profile in the summary or experience sections need to be high-quality and appropriately cropped. Nothing says “lack of attention to detail” like blurry, badly cropped, trite, or unflattering images. Of course, this is most important when it comes to your headshot. If you use a selfie, a photo where you crop out others, or a photo your mother took of you at last year’s family outing, it’s time to remove and replace. Invest in a professionally photographed headshot that projects you in the most positive and powerful light. And avoid full body shots. Let viewers see your face.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><strong style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">4. Third-person writing.</strong><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-variant-ligatures: common-ligatures;">Let’s face it, everyone knows you wrote your own LinkedIn summary and experience sections. It’s much more transparent and direct to write in the first person than to pretend that your publicist wrote your content. When you write in the first person, you create a conversation between you and the reader, and that helps you establish a more authentic relationship with them. I am seeing more and more profiles using the first person (even from CEOs – who probably do have someone writing it for them) but not everyone is there yet. It’s time for you take the third person out of your profile and get comfortable with me, myself, and I.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Article originally published on <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/nextavenue/2017/05/02/the-no-1-way-to-nail-a-job-interview/#401b88f35c29">Forbes</a></span></div>

<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Early in my career, I was responsible for staffing up a new
department store. More than 200 jobs needed to be filled quickly, so I
sometimes conducted 20 job interviews in a day. It was a crazy time, but one
that taught me a valuable lesson about what separates a good job interview
performance from a great one.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt; mso-add-space: auto; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here’s what I learned: Most candidates are qualified. Most come to
the interview prepared with answers to likely questions. But the candidate who
uses compelling stories to demonstrate his or her value is the one who’s most
likely to win the job.</span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Fortunately, you
don’t need to be Garrison Keillor to master this skill. An excellent new book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Get-That-Job-Complete-Interview/dp/0998380822" target="_blank"><i><span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #003891; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in; text-decoration: none; text-underline: none;">Get That Job! A Quick and Complete Guide to a Winning Interview </span></i></a> by
career coach Thea Kelley features a step-by-step approach to crafting winning
interview stories. The book is a short read, but it overflows with smart tips
for navigating every phase of the interview process, from the initial prep to
accepting an offer.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">The Three Cs of a Job Interview</span></b><span style="color: black;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt; mso-add-space: auto; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Before getting into Kelley’s suggestions, I’d like to mention the
three unspoken questions — commonly known as the Three Cs of Interviewing —
that need to be answered in every interview:</span></span><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;"><o:p><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Competence:</span></b><span style="color: black;"> Do you have
the skills, experience and knowledge to do the job, and do it well?</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Compatibility</span></b><span style="color: black;">: Do you fit with
their company culture, especially if it’s significantly different from where
you’ve worked before?</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="color: black;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Chemistry:</span></b><span style="color: black;"> Are you
someone the employer would like to work with? Businesses, government agencies
and nonprofits want to be convinced that their people will enjoy spending a big
chunk of their waking hours with you, day after day, in good times and bad.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt; mso-add-space: auto; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">So, which types of stories best convey this critical information?
Ones that tell an employer about a challenge you faced, the actions you took to
solve it and the results you achieved. Kelley uses the acronym SOAR (Situation,
Obstacles, Actions, Results) to describe this framework.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">When using SOAR
stories, you don’t just <i><span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;">tell </span></i>an
employer “I’m a good manager” or “I’m resilient,” you <i><span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;">show</span></i> it. That feels genuine. Done well, SOAR
stories help convince employers that you’re likeable, competent and the best
fit for the job.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Here’s a SOAR example excerpted from Kelly’s book from “Rob”
talking about how he implemented the business management software,
“SuccessSuite.” Note that it takes just a few sentences for Rob to convincingly
and clearly convey his value:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Situation</span></b><span style="color: black;">: “At the Cooper
Company, I realized our business management software wasn’t helping us work
efficiently.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Obstacle(s):</span></b><span style="color: black;"> “Management
initially said SuccessSuite was too expensive. I prepared a presentation that
changed their minds.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Actions:</span></b><span style="color: black;"> “I researched
the options, selected SuccessSuite, learned it, helped configure it and trained
our staff on it.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Results:</span></b><span style="color: black;"> “Efficiency
was increased by 40%.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">How to Prepare SOAR Stories</span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Kelley recommends you prepare 20 stories or more, so you won’t run
short if you go through multiple interviews at the same company. That sounds
like a lot, and it is, but here are three ways to quickly come up with a good
list:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Study relevant job postings. For each experience or skill
mentioned, ask yourself: “What have I done or how have I demonstrated that
successfully in the past?” Add those stories to your list.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="color: black;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Collect stories
from your resumé, <a href="http://www.nextavenue.org/how-freelancers-should-create-linkedin-profiles/" target="_blank"><span style="border: none windowtext 1.0pt; color: #003891; mso-border-alt: none windowtext 0in; padding: 0in;">LinkedIn profile</span></a> and
performance evaluations. All of these sources have information that can be
crafted into relevant stories.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Create question-and-story flashcards that answer common interview
questions. Get a bunch of 3 x 5 cards and on one side write a common behavioral
interview question like: “Tell me about a time you had to manage a difficult
boss.” Then, on the flip side, write down two or three stories that could
answer that question.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Once you’ve come up with a master list, format and type-up your
stories using the SOAR framework. Kelley’s tips for strengthening each of the
SOAR elements:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Situation:</span></b><span style="color: black;"> Highlight
pain points that resonate with employers, such as situations that had caused
wasted time, lost money or missed opportunities before you came to the rescue.
Keep this section brief, since it just sets the scene for the next three parts,
which are more important.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Obstacles:</span></b><span style="color: black;"> See if you
can think of how you helped your employer overcome a big obstacle, like an
economic downturn, a microscopic budget or an aggressive deadline. This makes
your story more impressive.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Action:</span></b><span style="color: black;"> Give just
enough detail, without getting too granular. Err on the side of brevity; nobody
needs to know every draft you wrote in preparing your big speech. Later, you
can always fill in with more information, if the interviewer requests it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Results:</span></b><span style="color: black;"> This is the
part that impresses employers most, so be specific and quantify your impact.
It’s best to use impressive numbers or percentages. But if you can’t, use words
like significantly, substantially or dramatically. And if a boss said something
memorable about your accomplishments, or your action resulted in an accolade or
award, include that as well.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">After you’ve completed your outlines, highlight the skills and
strengths demonstrated in each story. That way, you’ll know exactly which story
to share when an employer says something like: “Tell me about a time that you
dealt with a difficult co-worker” or “Tell me more about your software expertise.”</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Practice Makes Perfect</span></b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">No matter how carefully crafted your stories, they’ll likely fall
flat if you don’t practice your delivery. So…</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<b style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; padding: 0in;">Practice different versions of
the same story.</span></b><span style="font-family: inherit;"> Sometimes you’ll have ample time; others, you’ll need to
make it short. Kelley recommends cutting the story down until you can say it in
15 seconds or less. Then, prepare a longer version in case time permits.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Practice in front of a mirror
or take a selfie video to see and hear how you’re doing</span></b><span style="color: black;">. Then, practice
with a buddy or coach, ask for feedback and implement it.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><span style="border: 1pt none windowtext; color: black; padding: 0in;">Finally, schedule practice
sessions.</span></b><span style="color: black;"> Start with a brief period of time, like 30 minutes. Set a
timer and when the timer rings, you’re done.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="background: white; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Follow these steps, and hopefully, the next story you write will
be about your job search success!</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: normal; mso-outline-level: 1;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: normal; mso-outline-level: 1;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">There are some general
guidelines that should be followed if you want your resume to stand out from
your competition. While some rules can be open to interpretation, there are
others that almost every hiring manager will agree on. These are the do’s and
don’ts of writing an effective resume:</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; mso-outline-level: 1;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; mso-outline-level: 1;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">DO Tailor Your Resume<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Just as one outfit won’t
work for every company setting, one resume won’t work for every job posting.
You should tailor it towards the position you’re applying to. Utilize key words
from the job posting and have bullet points that reflect similar work
experience. Taking a few extra minutes to make these edits will increase your
chances of landing an interview. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; mso-outline-level: 1;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; mso-outline-level: 1;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">DON’T Use an Inappropriate Email<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">In the business world,
professionalism is everything. Your resume is no exception! The design, word
choice, and email address all play a factor. By no means should you use a work
email on your resume, nor can you use an outdated email such as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">tweetybird12@hotmail.com</i>. You don’t want
this to be your personal brand! Besides, it’ll be easier for hiring managers to
contact you if they can associate your name with your email address.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DO Use Numbers/Data</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">When it comes to the
job search process, your word means nothing unless you can back it up. Simply
listing off job duties is not enough; hiring managers want proof that you were
successful. That’s why you need to add quantifiable accomplishments. For
example, instead of putting “Conducted customer outreach in order to increase
sales” on your resume, you could write “Conducted over 150 customer outreach
phone calls each day, which increased sales by 30%”. The latter is much more
impactful.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">If your resume consists
of open-ended statements, then you should rework it so that it better illustrates
your accomplishments. Present the situation/goal, say the actions you took, and
discuss the results in terms of numbers and data- otherwise known as the STAR
method. Utilizing this method will help you prove yourself to a hiring manager.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DON’T Bend the Truth</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Lying on your resume is
one of the worst things you can do. Not only is it wrong, but you’ll inevitably
be caught. If you say that you’re proficient in specific software and begin a
job where it’s required, then you are bound to encounter problems. To avoid
such a situation, it’s best to abide by the “honesty is the best policy”
mentality. List your skills on your resume, and go into more depth when it
comes to the interview phase. Do not say you are proficient when you’re still
at the beginner/intermediate level. This will ensure that you land a job that
fits your skill set.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DO Check for Spelling/Grammatical Errors </b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This is a given, but
you would be surprised at how many people forget this simple step. Any errors
will lead a hiring manager to infer that you’re not detail oriented and that
you don’t care about the position. Always run a simple spell check and
proofread every single version of your resume. Then, proofread again! It may
seem tedious, but it could make all the difference.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DON’T Have too Many Pages</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Although there is no
page number restriction, hiring managers agree that too much information is a
bad thing. Resumes are typically looked at for less than one minute and having
more pages will not change this fact, so only include what’s important! As a
rule of thumb, you should have a max of 5 bullet points per job description. In
addition, each bullet point should only be two lines long. Implementing these
restrictions makes your resume stronger and ensures that you include only your
best accomplishments.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DO Utilize a Word Cloud Generator </b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Have you ever reread a
piece of work and realized that you’ve used the same word one too many times?
Even if you reference a thesaurus, who’s to say you’ve chosen the right words
to highlight your skills? <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">One way to find out is
to upload your resume to a word cloud generator. A great one to use is <a href="https://worditout.com/word-cloud/create">Word it Out</a>. You can upload your resume text, create the word
cloud, and then examine the word list to see which words/skills are used most
often. You can also edit the word cloud to only display words that show up a
certain number of times. If the results aren’t what you had expected or hoped
for, you can edit your word choices and try again.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">DON’T Forget to Update</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">No one enjoys updating
their resume, but it’s a necessary step if you hope to land a new job. However,
the task can be more manageable if you update it consistently, and this helps
ensure all important responsibilities and projects are included. If you wait
until the end of a job, then chances are high that you might forget something.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">With January and February officially
behind us, it’s time for your 60-day checkup. Are you upholding your New Year’s
Resolution? Have you started it? Did you utter the word “no” under your breath
just now? That’s ok! It’s not too late to get back on track.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Resolutions have a horrible reputation
for being broken— but your career goals should never be compromised. Here are 5
key steps that will help you accomplish your goals before you know it:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Be
Specific<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">A common dilemma that we face is making
our resolutions too vague. For example, saying “I want to network more” is
simply too broad since there isn’t a way to measure your success rate. Instead you
could say, “I would like to add 100 people to my LinkedIn profile” or “I would like
to attend 2 networking events a month”. Not only are these specific goals, they
are measurable as well.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Set
manageable/ monthly goals<o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Once you set specific goals, you need to
determine how manageable they will be. Setting your sights high is great, but
doing so can leave you questioning where to begin. If you find yourself in this
position, you may want to break your goals down into smaller objectives. This
helps you create a game plan and a timeline, which will help you reach success.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Consider adding 100 people to your LinkedIn
network—that would be extremely overwhelming when tackled all at once. However,
when you break that number down and connect with a few people each week, it’s not
as intimidating.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Make the
time</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It’s one thing to say you’ll do something,
and it’s another to actually do it. It’s easy enough to push it off until
tomorrow or the next day, but next thing you know you’ll be caught in a vicious
cycle of continuously postponing your goals. Why is that? We don’t make the
time! <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">If you want to reach your goals, then you
have to dedicate the time to work towards them. Allot time on your calendar to
work on your resolutions each week and stick to that schedule.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Be
accountable</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Share your goals—keeping them to yourself
won’t do you any good. Your friends and family are a vital resource to you and
they shouldn’t be overlooked. They’ll not only help you stick to your schedule,
but they will hold you accountable. If you happen to hit a roadblock, they’ll
be there to tell you “it’s ok” and help you get back on track. If you crush one
of your goals, they’ll be there to celebrate! This support system is exactly
what you need to push yourself a little harder, and to hold yourself to a
higher standard when it comes to accomplishing your goals.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Be patient</span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">It’s a resolution for a reason. You won’t
accomplish your goals overnight, but that doesn’t mean you won’t make progress
every day. Focus on tackling one objective at a time, and stay positive. Be
patient—good things take time, and they will be well worth the wait.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">We have all heard the saying, “You’ll never get a second chance to make a first impression.” This is perhaps most true when it comes to a job resume. While many companies use screening software to initially evaluate a candidate’s resume, recruiters are largely the first people you must impress.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">“The language or content of a resume can definitely tank a job seeker’s chances of landing their dream job,” says Jamie Hichens, Senior Talent Acquisition Partner at Glassdoor. “Y<span class="s1" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">ou have a limited amount of time to catch a recruiter or hiring manager’s eye – use it wisely.”</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Having “references upon request” at the bottom of your resume is a sign that a candidate is overeager. If a recruiter wants to call to know more about you, they will reach out directly. There is no need to point out the obvious. As <a href="https://www.glassdoor.com/blog/7-reasons-your-resume-sucks/" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">one HR expert said</a>, “everyone assumes we want references, but honestly, we can ask.”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Bensusen says do not use “technology or systems you have touched or were exposed to but really don’t know.” For example, stay away from sentences like, “… a Software Engineer who dabbled with Python in college seven years ago but has been developing in .NET professionally since.” In this case, don’t add Python to your resume if you’re not a pro.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Again, a candidate being on time is an expectation. “[Instead] craft a well thought out, concise resume with interesting content on accomplishments, KPI success or significant highlights with bullets on what you did,” advises Bensusen. “Did you create efficiencies that saved the company big bucks? Did you hire a stellar team that accomplished world peace?”</span></div>

Either way, provide enough context to show the impact. If your objective was to cut manufacturing costs by 10 percent, make it clear that you exceeded the goal.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Like personal information, do not feel obligated to explain gaps in your resume. “Personal information about age, relationships or children can expose you to discrimination,” warns Cox. “Employers aren’t allowed to ask for that kind of information, and you shouldn’t offer.” However, if you’d like to address a gap because you are re-entering the workforce, Cox says, “You can be creative, such as putting Domestic CEO as the title and listing ‘Successfully managed procurement, budgets and scheduling.'”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">“Often, careerists will write, ‘Responsible for’ at the beginning of a statement where a more powerful lead-in would energize; e.g., instead of, “Seasoned sales management executive …,” write, ‘Regional Sales Manager for Largest Revenue-Generating Area, exceeding competitors by 25-55% in revenue growth, year-over-year’,” says <a href="http://careertrend.net/" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; font-stretch: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">master resume writer </a>Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter. “In other words, strengthen the story through muscular verbiage and results. Lead with strength and energy.”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">“While many other words are misused or diluted by overuse, these are the weakest and most abused,” says Barrett-Poindexter. “If your resume language or content is weak, unfocused and/or rambling, <span style="font-family: inherit;">you can obliterate your chances of landing that dream role.”</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">“Where do you see yourself in five years?”</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">When a hiring manager asks you this, there may be a few things running through your brain. “Moving (way) up the ranks,” “running this place,” “<a href="https://www.themuse.com/advice/guesterlys-rachel-hofstetter-what-its-actually-like-starting-a-business" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #53b6d0; cursor: pointer; line-height: 1.2em; outline: none; text-decoration: none !important; transition: color 100ms ease-out;">working for myself</a>,” or “in your job,” for example.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">None of which are necessarily things you should say out loud in an interview.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So, how do you answer the question? Watch this quick video, where Muse CEO Kathryn Minshew shares a formula developed by <a href="https://www.themuse.com/advice/4-common-interview-questions-and-4-perfect-answers" style="background-color: transparent; box-sizing: border-box; color: #53b6d0; cursor: pointer; line-height: 1.2em; outline: none; text-decoration: none !important; transition: color 100ms ease-out;">our career expert Lily Zhang</a>. It’ll help you share your goals and ambitions the right way—and not give your interviewer anything to worry about.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So, how do you answer, “Where do you see yourself in five years?”</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This can feel like a bit of a trick question, because sometimes the answer is, “not in this job,” or, “in your job,” or something like, “at a bigger better opportunity elsewhere.” But none of those are things you actually want to say to a hiring manager.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The good news is you can be honest while still telling them what they really want to know. Do you have realistic expectations for your career? Are you ambitious? And does this particular position align with your growth and goals overall?</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For example, one way I like to think about it is: Think about where this position could realistically take you, and think about how that aligns with some of your broader professional goals.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So, for example, you might say, “Well I’m really excited by this position at Midnight Consulting because in five years, I’d like to be seen as someone with deep expertise in the energy sector, and I know that’s something that I’ll have an opportunity to do here. I’m also really excited to take on more managerial responsibilities in the next few years and potentially even take the lead on some projects. I’ve been lucky enough to work with some amazing managers, and so developing into a great manager myself is something I’m really excited about.”</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; margin-bottom: 20px;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So, what if this position is not a one-way ticket to your professional aspirations? It’s okay to say you don’t really know what the future holds, but you see how this experience could really help in making <span style="font-family: inherit;">that decision.</span></span></div>
