I heard a saying that went something like this. " I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man with no feet. " Complain as we may nothing is as bad and as devastating as the earthquake in Haiti that has caused death, destruction and suffering. I am proud to say that the Kiwanis International Foundation in conjunction with the Canadian Kiwanis Foundation has contributed to UNICEF. I listened as former Presidents Bush and Clinton spoke about the relief efforts. It is too bad that our politicians (democrats and republicans) cannot get together for the American people.
After over 36 years in executive search, I’ve encountered common questions about resume content. Do you need to include all jobs, even short-term ones, or how far back should you go? Remember, your resume is your choice. However, honesty is key – consider if you want to build a relationship on omissions or incorrect dates. Nowadays, explaining employment gaps is normal and can be done through activities like volunteering or caregiving. When addressing potential negatives, highlight your achievements and the value you bring. My direct line is 973-627-1888 if you want to discuss your career path.
