Job Search, Promotion, and Career Clarity: The Mid-Career GPS Podcast 122: Resume Tips for Mid-Career Professionals with Porschia Parker-Griffin
Many active job seekers agonize, and I do mean agonize, over their resumes. They wonder if it’s good enough. They question why it isn’t getting more traction or visibility. You may have sent out dozens of resumes only to hear from a handful of potential employers who’ve told you they want to invite you to an interview or you aren’t qualified to move to the next round.
In today’s episode, you will meet Porschia Parker-Griffin, the founder and CEO of Fly High Coaching and the Host of the "Career 101 Podcast." Porschia and I will talk to you about what your resume must do, what type of resume you should have, what you need to know if you are writing your resume, how to address a career gap, and why hiring a professional resume writer is an investment in you and your career that will reap its benefits far beyond the job you are going to get.
