I have been asked many times how I can bring a candidate and client together so fast. I would reply that
it was luck and the harder I worked the luckier I would be. It its
purest form, the role of the recruiter is to enhance the lives of candidates
and improve client profitability. The hard work of the process is
determining the needs of the client and matching it against the wants of the
candidate. The luck (the result of the hard work) occurs when there is
a match and both sides are happy. A successful hire has to be win-win
for both sides.

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.
