Over 40? Why Employers Don't Think Your Resume Is As Cool As You Think

You've slaved over your resume, had it rewritten by an outplacement firm, and had people you respect give their opinion. Or you paid to have a professional resume writer write your resume for you. So you think your resume is perfect.

Unfortunately, employers don't think your resume is a cool as you think it is.

Outplacement uses traditional job search/resume strategies, and rewrites resumes to look average.

Certified professional resume writers have been taught and tested on the same traditional resume strategies that make your resume look average.

Your friends, ex-bosses, and coworkers look for obvious errors, making sure your resume looks like the resumes they're used to seeing, and similar to advice they've received - they confirm that your resume looks average.

But employers don't think average resumes are cool ...

Employers perceive that average resumes portray average candidates, and they want better than average employees. They want to hire impact players, and an average resume doesn't show the impact you can make for an employer.

You can do better and you need to do better to find a great job when you're over 40.

I've been teaching job seekers to overcome ageism for 10+ years by using non-traditional resume/job search strategies that demonstrate impact rather than just being average. I'll show you how to find a great job in early 2020 with a resume and job search that understands employers' points of view and syncs with hiring processes.

(BTW, I'm not just a career coach. I've also been a top national recruiter for the last 15 years ... so you'll get advice from an insider's point of view.)

Let me show you what to change in your job search and resume, so you can find a great job in early 2020, even if you're over 40 and/or unemployed.
