Do You Have a Hotsy-Totsy Resume?

I begin this article with a bit of slang description. Whatdo I mean by a "hotsy totsy" resume? I mean one thatdoes the following for you, the job seeker and apossible employer.

1. It has a concise job objective, based on what theemployer wants. Follow the employer's lead.

2. It describes what you, the job seeker, can do forthat employer. No long-winded explanation of howwonderful you are. The employer is WONDERFUL!

3. Educational experiences, which can get the job done.Just the facts ma'am.

4. A brief paragraph of how your skills match the job.Short descriptions of skills. Very upbeat.

5. Say you want an interview. Do you?

6. No mention of references. References come duringor after an interview. Do you need to trot out yourpedigree now?

7. Make sure your information is available. Address; phone, email, etc. Check the resume twice more.

A "hotsy-totsy" resume is inviting, clear and keeps the employer, ALWAYS, in mind.

Being brash, self-confident and assertive is what mostemployers want. They just don't say it. Milquetoastsare for the backroom.

You want to be in the "front room" don't you? Then,get big, bad and brash with a hotsy-totsy resume.

Not overpowering, just brash and beautiful!
