Here are five tips to refresh your job hunt


• Reconsider the chronological resume. Using a format that highlights skills instead of employment history may be more productive

• Invest in latest packaging. Look outside the particular industry or field you’ve focused on. It’s possible the skills that make marketable in that field can be transferred to another

• Switch up your networking. Look for different groups to join and fresh ways to meet people outside your usual circle

• Get a second opinion. Ask a friend with good professional judgment to give you comment on your interview performance and have a recruiter or friend give you ideas for your resume and

• Expand your reach. If you can’t find what you’re looking for locally, explore options outside your present city.

Your résumé is the first step in the process of a strategic career move. The résumé is an essential piece to all types of job searching approaches, as well as playing a crucial role through the interview and selection processes.

One of the most useful techniques for constructing your résumé is to focus it on a specific target job, and then go through and deconstruct the deliverables of that job from other related job postings. Accomplishing this successfully will generate a résumé that not only opens doors toward future career success, but assists you in preparation for the interview process.
