Career changes are common around Atlanta and 21st
Century America in general. Sometimes people are downsized or laid-off or fired,
at other times they simply desire a new career or job by their own initiative.
It happens all the time.
Still, no matter who is changing jobs or professions, they
all have one thing in common: An updated resume is required to secure
interviews for a new career. A good resume opens the door to employment.
The important thing is to demonstrate (or have your resume
writer show) how your skills, experience, and education can transfer in a
beneficial manner into the new field or new career. Somewhat like a student
resume, entering a new field means a great deal of speculation on the potential
employer’s part
.
It is best to show eagerness, and to list past
accomplishments and relevant functions that have been performed that will
create personal value in the potential new job. No one wants to hire someone
that will need excessive training. Would you? Appear versatile.
In other words, the resume must be slanted towards the type
of new work that is desired. It should be convincing and as detailed as
possible. Every related task or duty from past jobs must be included. All
training and education should also be listed, particularly on-the-job training
or classes taken during past employment.
Changing careers doesn’t have to be a hard ordeal in
Atlanta or anywhere else. The transition can be made smoothly with a solid
resume, cover letters, and a great deal of enthusiasm and zeal. Make 2016 your
year for new employment. Do not be afraid of change.
A good resume service or preparer can be a great benefit in
these situations. Hire one and provide him or her or them with complete
information so that a great document can be written and developed for you.
