FREE VIRTUAL MASTERCALSS
Have you ever applied for a job that you had all the qualification for, but you didn’t get an interview?
Did you know that your resume and how it’s written plays a significant role in making you stand out and getting you selected for the interview?
However, too often, resumes do not fully represent the skills and experience of the professional. There are a number of weaknesses in the typical resume that you easily fix and make the resume stand out.
To help you figure out the best strategies in improving your resume and landing the job that you deserve, we decided to hold a masterclass on this topic.
This masterclass is designed to provide you tactical advice on how to write a projects resume, how to organize it, and what to include and exclude in your project resume. This advice is not from a professional recruiter, or a resume development service provider, but rather from someone who has been involved in matching roles and candidates for a long career, Chris Carson.
As a hiring manager and Project Controls thought leader, Chris has been reviewing resumes for project controls job applications and interviewing candidates for many years.
After years of reviewing resumes for project controls professionals, he realized that too often resumes do not fully represent the skills and experience of the professional. He’s seen numerous cases where the candidate was initially rejected for a role that, upon investigation, was actually a good fit for that candidate.
In this masterclass, Chris will share his lessons from his background in reviewing resumes and interviewing candidates and help you stand out from the crowd.
By applying the strategies that will be shared in this masterclass, you will survive the first round of qualifying reviews, ensure successful selection for the right role, and elevate your resume to a preferential place in the hiring company’s and recruiter’s files.
To be more specific, upon attending this masterclass, you will learn:
- The difference between a CV, Work History Resume and Project Resume.
- Why it’s essential for you to develop a Project Resume.
- Some examples of good and bad Project Resumes.
- How you can organize and categorize your resume.
- What categories and priorities you need to consider in your resume and what information you need to have in each category.
- How much detail you should include in your project descriptions and your roles.
- What information you must include and exclude in your resume.
- How you can strengthen your resume while considering your career decisions.
- Why you should customize your resume for every job application.
- How you can find your next perfect job.
