There's More to Your Job Search than Your Resume

🙄Of course, we all know that your resume is super important. But it's soooo important to remember that it's just 1 PART of your job search.

✅Be sure to pay attention to these other things that Hiring Managers are looking at...

✔️LinkedIn photo. You are portraying yourself as a Professional and marketing yourself to potential employers. No car selfies, pictures of you with other people (or parts of other people 😉), or cluttered backgrounds.

✔️LinkedIn profile. You don't need to post to get a job, but your profile should be professional, and be super careful of your engagement. Nothing negative about your past career/field. (Watch my 3-part video series, "LinkedIn and Your Job Search" on my YouTube channel".)

✔️Social media. Keep it clean. Employers are looking.

✔️Interview practice. Let's be real. It will be incredibly obvious to the interviewer if you didn't prepare. Your resume got you in the door. Now you need to showcase why you are the best person for THIS exact position. (Watch my 3 part video series, "Impressing the Interviewer" pinned to Featured on my LinkedIn profile or on my YouTube channel".)

✔️Cover letter. Let's help you to stand out. A great cover letter shows your passion, additional information and stories that can't be in your resume, and your ability to write, and put in extra effort. Soooo many of my clients are called for interviews within 24 hours based on their cover letters.

✔️Response time. When the employer sends you an email or calls you for an interview, respond promptly. Check your spam. Make sure your voicemail is professional and the mailbox isn't full.

✅Of course you need a great resume, but the resume doesn't get you the job. Pay attention to every aspect of how you are marketing and branding yourself. Because the employer is!
