Volunteer to Better Your Resume and Your Community

An often overlooked method to strengthen your resume and job skills is to volunteer with nonprofit groups in your community. These groups welcome all volunteers who have a willingness to learn and to serve others. Volunteerism provides many benefits to job seekers and is essential in any community. Despite these benefits, many talented people avoid community service work. Some may even ask, "What"s in it for me?" The short answer is; plenty!


What to do when your job title doesn't match your job responsibilities

A friend of mine asked for my help recently in composing her resume. She works as an Office Manager for a small business. In her role, she assumes all responsibilities of an Office Manager. In addition, she partners with the company owner to set policies, works with freelancers on marketing materials, serves as a liaison between vendors and shipping service companies, and conducts calls for sales leads that are collected at trade shows. In other words, her title doesn"t encompass all of her job responsibilities. Several potential employers have in fact had concerns about the difference in her title and her overall position in the company, wondering if she had exaggerated her responsibilities on her resume.
