21st Century Resume Writing and Interviewing

Description

Internet, job boards, artificial intelligence and automation now dominate the candidate screening and hiring process. Further, there have been advancements in methodologies to create a more personal and accurate resume and “personal brand”. This session takes a deep dive on building a resume that translates directly to “talking points” by utilizing the SPAR technique (Situation, Problem, Actions, and Results) to better understand your individual core strengths. Participants will participate in developing a SPAR methodology by describing when they “nailed it”, and how those experiences translate directly into skill sets. The session will also include resume “dos and don’ts”, alternative forms of resumes, interviewing techniques, and job source options.
