Why Employers Don't Think Your Resume Is As Cool As You Think, When You're Over 40

You've slaved?over?your?resume, had it rewritten by outplacement/career coach 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 the best it can be.

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

Outplacement and most career coaches uses traditional job search/resume?strategies, and rewrites?resumes?to look qualified. But qualified means 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 fast when you're?over?40. Let me show you how to change your resume so that it gets employers excited, because they see you as one of the top candidate.
