| Here’s one participant’s opinion: “A Blueprint for Your Job Search in the Digital Age” was the most useful résumé/job search workshop in which I’ve ever participated. Thanks to you, I was able to condense my two-page résumé, bloated with “darlings,” into a one-page power résumé with an impressive “F-Zone.” Every time I open the document now, I see at least one thing that could be improved, stated more succinctly, or moved into a more critical area of the “F-Zone.” I look forward to soon being able to report that my new and improved résumé (attached), cover letter and interview skills have landed me a job. —-Margaret Agius CP (Westland MI) |
