Remember,
though, that employers do not have endless hours of spare
time that they can spend with you discussing your future
employment with them. Given the extensive streamlining
efforts in most companies, employees are often doing more
than just one thing.
Therefore,
if you think you can just telephone and set up an appointment
for an interview, you are seriously selling yourself
short.
EMPLOYERS
CALL FOR RESUMES
Before
an employer interviews you, he needs to see that you
are not wasting his time. This is where your resume
is such an essential marketing tool. It tells an employer
that you have seriously thought about the job opening,
have prepared for it, and have taken the time to present
yourself articulately. In short, a resume tells the
employer that you have a positive work attitude and
that you are a responsible team player.
A
RESUME FOSTERS YOUR CAREER
We
all know that we have to work to make our dreams come
true. This is also true of dream jobs. You need a resume
not because most employers insist on seeing one. It
is a means to an end. If there is a job that you earnestly
want, then send in a resume that will highlight your
professional skills. .
It
is only through your resume that you can convince employers
that they will benefit from your presence in their company
- why your skills are worth the company's money, why
you are better than the other applicants, and why you
are the best person to untangle and resolve tough issues
that may arise in the actual job situation.
