Bruce Hurwitz, Ph.D. shared thisThe focus of a #resume must be on your accomplishments not responsibilities which you may not have been good at! The only thing that will result in an interview is showing a prospective employer what you can do for them since you did it for someone else. https://zurl.co/FqK3J

Bruce Hurwitz, Ph.D. shared thisIf a cover letter takes more than 10 seconds to read, it won't be read. It's purpose is to get the recipient to look at the resume. So focus on the one thing that makes you the ideal candidate for the job. https://zurl.co/uF0ww

Bruce Hurwitz, Ph.D. shared thisDon't be fooled. You only need ONE resume. The resume is about YOU not the employer. If someone says you need a different resume for each job application, they are WRONG! Just because the employer changes does not mean you do! https://zurl.co/rtcWS #resume

Success! As Employee or Entrepreneur
Fish Hook Books, Ltd. (Self-Published, Textbook)
This is a book about analytical thinking. Yes, this is a book about getting a job and succeeding at work. Yes, this is a book about starting and successfully running a business. But most importantly its goal is to provide readers with the information they need to make the proper decisions that will result in their success, be it as employee or entrepreneur.

Yes, this is a book about getting a job and succeeding at work. Yes, this is a book about starting and successfully running a business. But most importantly its goal is to provide readers with the information they need to make the proper decisions that will result in their success, be it as employee or entrepreneur.
If employees know the secret to job security they have nothing to fear. So here it is: make yourself indispensable and you’ll have little about which to worry. Naturally, there are no guarantees, but very few employers can afford to let the cream of their crop go. That is the aim of Part Two of this book: to teach how to get and keep a job. On the other hand, many employees who excel or, through no fault of their own, lose their jobs, decide to follow the entrepreneurial path. In Part Three, readers will learn how to start and run a business. Spoiler alert! Here’s the secret to entrepreneurial success: excellent customer service. In Part Three, we travel down the entrepreneurial road from the idea of starting a business, to actual formation and, finally, to success.
But what, you ask, happened to Part One? We begin the book with the things that are common to both the successful employee and the successful entrepreneur from making an effective presentation to change and risk management. You see, an employee can consider their job to be their own business, and an entrepreneur knows that, at the end of the day, they are just an employee of their clients or customers. So, in reality, there’s little difference between them. The reasons for success are the same no matter what you are. -
