Taken from nearly 10 years of resume writing experience, Barb Witt outlines a simple, no frills approach to writing personal marketing materials. Don't just sit down and write a laundry list of all the responsibilities you have been handed throughout your career. Barb shows you how to reexamine your goals, dreams and skills to shed a new light on your career transition.

"references provided upon request" is straightforward and to the point advice outlining specific tasks the reader can accomplish as they work their way to a final resume. Included are sections on goals, education, strategy and formatting and all with an undertone of encouragement to stay in the 'job transition game' and not to give up.

The author speaks clearly on how to shift from a task based to an accomplishment based resume through refocusing your view of your work day and past positions.

By the end of this eBook you will have a well thought out resume for a target position. Completing the research as suggested will help you gain confidence during writing and interviewing.

Resources (in part seven) include invaluable links to free samples of resumes, cover letters as well as articles helpful to interviewing, job search and resume writing. These sites are updated frequently.
