How to Make a Resume With No Work Experience
How to Make a Resume With No Work ExperienceMaking a resume that gets you interviews are important, but many people struggle to get through it as it is, without cutting corners or making some obvious mistakes. However, even people with experience may find their resumes lacking.One reason is because you have to be careful about how you present yourself in order to get a certain way through the hiring process. This is especially true for people who do not have much work experience. However, even those with years of experience may not be presenting themselves in the best possible way.Even if you have experience, you will find it hard to make your resume stand out from others that are being used for a job interview. Even if you have had several jobs and filled out job applications that contain a perfect resume, there is still something that stands out about your resume. This could be your skills, your experience, or a combination of the two.The good news is that you can still have it loo k great without putting in any of your skills. By only taking advantage of certain areas of your skills you can still have a resume that is designed to impress the hiring manager. Here are some suggestions on how to make a resume that is effective without showing off all of your skills.The first step is to use bullet points in your resume. You don't have to worry about using numbers when writing your resume; however, you should use the best way possible to highlight the points you want to cover in your job application. A great way to do this is to put them in a list format and use the first one as your title. By using the first one as your title you will highlight the points that are in the job application.As for the rest of the resume, you will want to put each bullet point in a real part of your resume. This will help to show that you took the time to put the information down properly. If you skip any points, the hiring manager may take this as if you skipped something else that w as important. It is up to you to make sure you use all of the facts presented in your resume.Using other skills in your resume is also a great way to make sure you do not oversell yourself. Instead of including a list of your work experience, you can instead show how you use these skills to get a job done. If you had to get your hands dirty to fix a problem before you were able to get it fixed, you should show this to the hiring manager when your resume is read.Once you get a chance to put your resume to the test, you will quickly see how simple it is to make a resume that does not focus on how many years of experience you have. However, by using these suggestions, you can make sure you do not only make a resume that impresses the hiring manager, but that impresses the hiring manager the best way possible.

9 SMART Tips for a Successful Telephone Interview Part 2 During the Call - Hire Imaging
9 SMART Tips for a Successful Telephone Interview Part 2 During the Call - Hire Imaging photo by Steven Depolo You never get a second chance to make a first impression.â ~ Author Unknown The telephone interview is a crucial first step to getting on the short list. In Part 1, we covered 5 Tips to prepare. Now, are you ready when that phone rings? Comparable to a sales professional who âqualifiesâ a prospect to determine whether he or she is a good fit for the product (and worth spending more time with), in a phone interview the employer is qualifying you and determining whether you are a good fit for the position being offered (therefore deciding whether to spend more time with you in a face-to-face interview). Here are some tips to maximize success during the phone interview. 1. Manage expectations. Hereâs what they want to know: You meet basic qualifications for the job Your answers are consistent with information on your résumé or application You understand the position and have asked appropriate questions You have expressed not only interestâ"but enthusiasmâ"for the position 2. Gather your dashboard data. You should have your resume/stories and the job description/posting handy, as well as the callerâs name, title, company and all related contact information for follow-up. Go ahead and ask for any contact information you still need. It shows youâre on the ball and focused on details. 3. Listen as though you canât see. You will not have the benefit of visual clues (body language; eye contact). Try closing your eyes to block out any distractions. It will help you tune in and really listen to the caller. Another trick is to silently repeat a few sentences that the interviewer says (donât do this for more than a minute or two). This silent-echo technique will help you focus on whatâs being said. Remove background noises before the callâ"kids, phones, music and outside noises. 4. Tune in to how you sound. Because you donât have the advantage of face-to-face visual clues like smiling, eye contact or nodding your head to show you are listening, use an occasional âI seeâ or âI understandâ or âGo onâ to indicate that youâre listening carefully. If you need a moment to think of an answer, thatâs okay. But instead of having dead air, say something like, âThatâs an interesting question.â Pay attention to how you come across. Try recording your voice on the call to hear what others hear. Listen for pitch, volume and attitude. Try smiling when you talk to add enthusiasm and friendliness to your voice. Monitor your pace. Think about shortening the length of your responses a bit for phone interviews. If you tend to be a talker, pull back so that you donât dominate the conversation. Having a stopwatch or 2-minute hourglass in front of you might help. 5. Be prepared for their questions; and with your own. Anticipate some of the frequently asked questions in phone interviews: 1. What are the top duties you perform in your current/most recent position? 2. What types of decisions do you frequently make in your current/most recent position? How do you go about making them? 3. How many years of experience do you have with _______ (the type of product/service youâll be providing if hired for this job)? 4. How would you describe your ideal work environment? 5. Why are you leaving your current employer? Or Why did you leave your last employer? 6. What do you know about (or expect from) this position? 7. What do you know about our company? 8. How does this position fit into your long-term career plans? OR Where do you see yourself in 5 to 10 years? 9. Why are you the best candidate for this position? 10. When would you be available? 11. Is the salary range for the position within your acceptable range? 12. What questions do you have? You probably wonât have time to ask many questions in a phone interview, as the interviewer is often more interested in confirming facts than establishing a relationship. However, there are a few key questions that will help you understanding the position: 1. How would you describe the ideal candidate for this position? 2. What are the top-priority projects or initiatives for this position in the next 30 days? 60 days? 90 days? 3. How does this position fit into the companyâs long-term plans? Note that there are NO questions about salary or benefits. At this stage, you want to focus on how you can contribute value to the organization. Listen carefully to the interviewerâs description of the company and the position. Continue to think in terms of âitâs about them; not meâ. 6. Use your SMART Stories. Have your SMART Stories internalized and on hand. Interviewers will be impressed with concise and specific responses to questions. Make sure you cover the âRâ in SMART â" providing results will definitely set you apart from your competition. It answers the metrics of the âSo what?â and âMake me care!â thoughts in each interviewerâs mind. 7. Anticipate surprise. You may be asked unexpected questions, or even be asked to participate in a role-play. If you need a moment to think on your feet, fill in the gap by repeating some of the interviewerâs instructions. For example, âSure; let me review the scenario so that Iâm clear on what youâre describing.â And then repeat a few of the steps. 8. Take notes. Note-taking helps you remember the specifics of your conversation and helps you come across as a great listener. Bonus: When you get to the subsequent face-to-face interview, bringing up important points from your prior notes continues to create a great impression that youâre motivated, in control and engaged. 9. Grab an opportunity to move to the next phase. When the interviewer asks a particularly important question, respond with a request for a face-to-face meeting. âThatâs an important question, and one that I could answer more fully in person.â And if appropriate, âI have some interesting information that addresses that matter. Is it possible to set up a meeting on Wednesday or Thursday?â If this type of opportunity does not present itself, make sure and close with a thank-you. Interviewers are typically busy people with a full plate. Thank the interviewer for taking time from a hectic schedule to speak with you. And ask with confidence what next steps will be, say that you are excited about moving forward. And of course, donât forget to send both an email and hand-written thank-you note. Any telephone conversation with a networking contact, recruiter or employer should be considered an interview. Remember the mantra, âItâs about them, not me.â Translation: think from the employerâs perspective and filter every situation with the question, âWhat does the employer need from me as a candidate and how can I meet their needs?â This focus on what the employer needs is the secret to being less self-conscious and more relaxed through the phone interviewâ"and overall screening process. Itâs a conversation and collaborationâ"not an interrogation! Hereâs to you getting on the short list!

6 Ways to Calm Job Interview Nerves - Wolfgang Career Executive Coaching
6 Ways to Calm Job Interview Nerves - Wolfgang Career Executive Coaching Guest blog with great ideas for how to be confident in a job interview and calm those interview nerves! Coach Wolfgang After sending countless CVs, you finally got a call â" the company of your dreams finds that you may be the next person to join their team. However, now comes the hardest part: the notorious interview! Most people claim that this is the most nerve-wracking part of the whole process, from searching for a job to working. The reason for that is that they donât prepare themselves enough for what is to come. All you need is to believe in yourself and appear confident, because if you donât look like you think, this is the job for you, how could they? The following tips can help you to master the art of being confident, shaking off those interview nerves and finally sealing the deal. Have a Strong Handshake The first thing youâll do when you come in is to shake the hands of the interviewers. This is the first impression theyâll have of you and it needs to be a good one. A limp handshake can instantly reveal all your insecurities. Try to be the first to extend your hand for a firm handshake, it will show you have initiative. While you shake the interviewersâ hand, smile and look them in the eyes. Smiling is not just a way to make you look more friendly, it will also help you to feel more relaxed. Make Eye Contact There is nothing that says âI have confidenceâ more, than not being afraid to make eye contact. Eye contact can represent so many things, and it can show that you are present, a patient listener, and most importantly, that you have confidence. Put yourself in the employerâs shoes; would you hire a person who is even scared to look somebody directly in the eyes? Interview nerves go away when you look them in the eye! Inform Yourself Say Bye to Interview Nerves Prior to standing before the interviewer and trying to convince them that you are the right person for that job, you should collect enough information so that nothing can surprise you. It can help you feel calmer and shake those interview nerves when the time of the interview actually comes. The insecurity usually comes from the fact that you are scared that they will ask questions to which you wonât have an answer, but if you check your facts, there is nothing to feel scared about. The most important information you need before you head to the interview are: The story behind the company â" You will work there and you need to know everything that you can find about them. If you show that you are truly passionate about the work they do it will certainly provide you with some extra points. What do you have to offer? â" The question almost everybody asks is why are you the right person for this job? Prepare an answer that truly represents your strengths and what you can contribute to the company. A good interview preparation can take you a long way. Speak with Conviction It is not only about what you say, but how you say that is what will help your potential employers to form an opinion about you. You need the right combination of strong voice and a friendly tone. Also, donât rush it. If you speak too fast it will only make them lose their focus and it is an instant sign of stage fright. Speak slowly and clearly so that everyone can understand you. Donât forget to look them in the eyes while doing so. If it helps, you can always practice the talk at home. Be aware of your body language Body language is the easiest tool you can use to showcase your confidence. That is why you should sit upright and try to lean slightly forward. Nodding when appropriate is also a good way to show that you are paying attention and it gives them a sense of the agreement on your side. Try to look relaxed and at ease. Be the One Who Asks Questions Step forward and ask the interviewers some meaningful questions. This doesnât mean that you should be arrogant and interrupt them, you just need to show that you have more to offer than just to listen and nod your head. Some of the questions you can use in order to show interest and preparedness are: What would be my main priority in this role? What avenues are available within the company after this position? How will my training look like? What tasks will define success in this position? What will the typical day look like? Is there something I should do differently than the previous people who have held this job? How does your company view creativity and individuality? Some final thoughts Feeling nervous about the interview is the most natural thing. Simple tricks such as these can seem trivial, but they are of great importance in order for you to represent yourself as a competent person for the job. The interview is the determining moment for every career and that is why it should be your time to shine and show your employers how well you perform under pressure.

How to Set Goals Youll Actually Achieve IM HIRED
How to Set Goals Youll Actually Achieve Get on Top of your Goals Setting goals is a past time that is usually reserved for New Yearâs Eve. A time where the whole world becomes obsessed with making a better version of themselves and succeeding with all the plans that they made but failed to achieve the year before. But why are so many of us just keeping the idea of goal setting to a once a year ritual? And more importantly why do we never follow through with those commitments? The answer might be simpler than you think. Itâs all about setting goals that are not just achievable but are realistic and attainable. Start Small Your end goal might be to manage your own business but having one huge goal in front of you can easily become overwhelming. Break your goals into bite size chunks and starting smaller to grow towards your end ambition. For example, look to start a side business alongside your full time career, setting tasks such as building a portfolio or a client list. Moving forward one step at a time. Every little achievement adds up to the end result so donât get hung up on attaining the end result straightaway. Have a Clear Timeline Rome wasnât built in a day and neither were all your goals achieved over night, so be realistic. Donât set yourself up to fail by setting impossibly difficult deadlines. Figure out a sensible timeline and have a contingency. Even the best laid plans can have hiccups so be prepared for things to go off track from time to time. Dont drive yourself to hard to achieve the end result. Enjoy the journey and realise you will get there eventually. Review Your Progress When setting goals you need to factor in time to review your progress and make improvements to your plan of action. Takr time out to celebrate your accomplishments but moreover evaluating areas that didnât go exactly to plan. Forward thinking is a must. Consider where pity falls may occur during your strategy and how you can avoid these situations occurring. Be honest with yourself, helping you better migrate through the challenges that lie ahead. Stay Focused Motivation is vital to keeping yourself focused on achieving the goals you have set yourself. It is easy to become distracted and worse of all procrastinate when it comes to getting the job done. Youâll need a positive mind set and a well-defined structure to help you get to the finish line. You arenât going to feel pumped up every day of the week and thatâs absolutely fine so just be open to good days and bad ones. But donât spend too much time focusing on the bad. Get Others Involved There is no better way to stay on track than having a helping hand. Someone who can keep you on course and can pick you up when youâre feeling like you want to give up. Having some support will also allow you to achieve your goals quicker. But make sure its beneficial for both parties and learn to give back to those supporting you. Whether you use an expert like a life or career couch to get you through your goals or just a great friend for guidance, everyone needs some support once in a while.
