Remember, your resume is ultimately your ‘passport’ to your next dream job. Take your time with it, make sure it’s professional and it gives the best view of who you are and what you bring to the table. You've got this! I wish you every success! 😊
I've been asked to provide a complete professional history on my resume, to prove over 25 years of experience in order to be considered a Senior level candidate. I recommend that people keep a complete resume updated along with a short version.
I understand your point about headshots but the UNFORTUNATE thing is that with the prevalent use of LinkedIn, we are exposed to the same bias you mentioned about headshots. No one seems to talk about this!! LinkedIn is being promoted as a great resource and it is recommended that one includes a photo. The photo is how some potential employers or recruiters judge you before even reading about what you have to offer.
I love that you're addressing the mistakes teachers often make when transitioning to different careers. It's essential to approach the job search with a fresh mindset and avoid falling into these traps. Thank you for the helpful advice!
Such great pointers that you would think most folks would know as common standards. This is where her content fills in the blanks for the people whom it doesn't come naturally. Thank you @Brigette
I had the opposite experience regarding resume length... For a very long time I had a single page resume, and never received too many interview calls. Soon after I made a lengthy and detailed resume, I started to get many interview calls, and I cleared one. Same experience my wife too had... her 10 page CV helped her clear 4 interviews, thus had 4 offers to choose from.
AMEN! Thank you, Brigette! I'm taking the time to re-brand myself as suitable to be a supervisor/manager. I've spent far too many years feeling underpaid at jobs that were easy for me to achieve. I'm taking a stand to strive for better and challenge my capabilities. I'm pretty excited!
Certainly opened my eyes on the pointers you just mentioned! All are found in my resume, it makes my current one like an amateur's write up. Fixing it asap - thank you very much for the pointers!
Hi Bridgette, my first time seeing your content. I do employability support in the disability sector in Scotland. I've been teaching exactly everything you've advised on this video with significant pushback from 'industry professionals '. With one minor exception, which may be a cultural difference, about making sure the personal statement is first person, although I do utterly agree with removing it for the rest. Otherwise you hit every single point exactly! Thanks for the reassurance 😀
Amen! Thank you for these amazing tips! I have a long career history and really struggled with getting that 2-3 pages -these tips will for sure get that for me! It is has been a long time for me, having to be on the job search and there have been many changes over the years. Thank you again!❤️
Thank you for these tips, Bridgette! You helped me change my resume for the better! I am hoping for a career change for a better more fulfilling life. Again, thank you!
Excellent brief @BrigetteHyacinth ! This was the most informative résumé brief I've seen! Using examples of what to change to was the perfect educational tool. And because of your closing: *"With God, all things are possible."* I subscribed!
Thank you so much for sharing the real and workable in formation for professionals at any level. Some i already knew but you gave the updated version too.
is the "avoiding of overuse theme for me", something to correct by me.thank you Brigette. I would appreciate you make videos as regards to applying for entry level jobs especially for fresh graduates, how to go about the interviews,how to make up your CV for specifically that and so on...
THANK YOU! LOVE THAT YOU CALL OUT THAT PRONOUNS HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH WOOOOORRRRK EXPERIENCE! I feel SO sorry for those of you who have to read resumes that may focus on that aspect.
Thanks for these invaluable tips, whoops, action verbs, let me express my profound gratitude for these invaluable pearls of wisdom for a professional resume.
You are the best I have seen so far. I was just severance due to outsourcing overseas. Well, the people the customers complained about now have all the work. I wish the company the best. They will need it.
Well-done Ms Hyacinth! A résumé is a _sales brochure_ created solely for the purpose of obtaining an interview. When I was tasked with running job clubs for the unemployed I used a sample résumé created by the successful applicant for the job of co-ordinating the election campaign for a US senator. It was one side of an American Letter page, so slightly shorter than A4! The résumé listed the achievements of the applicant in such things as planning, co-ordination, budgeting etc, quantified wherever possible. One's immediate reaction to the document was a strong desire to meet her. Nowhere was it mentioned that her formidable skills were acquired by being a highly successful housewife! Having had to assess job applications while managing a business, one is looking for ways to _reject_ applications! You want to reduce the applications to the 3 or 4 most likely hires as quickly as possible. Fortunately most applicants' résumés make this easy, although tedious when there are more than a hundred to scrutinise! Successful résumés make the employer's task easier.
Extremely helpful! just finished a bootcamp and setup everything except my resume! will use these points to make sure I try my best to score a job! thank you!
Well, if the care a recruiter has for selecting the right people for the right job is limited to 6 seconds, then the company he is working for is not proposing a dream job. If you are already treated like a number in the selection process, you'll be just a number after. Don't waste time with those companies and go on.
Thank you for sharing these tips. Much needed by most of the applicants. I see experienced /senior management people making these resume mistakes. It’s very helpful 👍🏼

Thank you for the encouragement. Brigette!
