While there’s no shortage of advice out there for finding a job, it never hurts to have another perspective when you want to distract yourself from the doubt, uncertainty, frustration, or any other emotion that comes to mind when you’re unemployed or unhappy in your current role.

I hold two degrees in technical communication, which is a field that studies and applies persuasive writing, plain language, document design, and, well, communication, to make ideas, concepts, and other technical information easier for non-experts to use and understand. 

My goal is to create and be a resource to help those who need a compelling resume. Maybe you need a place to start or you’ve tried other strategies. You might even have a great draft you’re just finetuning. Regardless, the important thing is to showcase your talents and highlight the genuine way you stand out.  

I hope the process (or at least outcome) of tailoring your job materials to a role you know you’ll love helps you nurture the belief that you deserve to enjoy what you do.
