Resumes

Patrice & Associates Resume Tips For Candidates

  • Format your resume wisely – list months/dates for all jobs. Explain any gaps in employment.  Include “reason for leaving” for each position.
  • Identify accomplishments not job’s job descriptions.
  • Quantify your accomplishments – what benefit was there to your employer.
  • One resume does not fit all – cater your resume to a specific industry and position.

Always bring at least 2 copies of your resume. Often the employer is working from a faxed copy or has misplaced it or in some cases hasn’t received one.  Offer a clean copy to your interviewer. Keep the other copy in front of you to assist you in remembering dates and details as the employer goes through your resume.

You are going to do such a good job on this interview that the interviewer may want you to meet and interview with the next level of interviewer that day.

  • Thank you for helping me Bruce Leininger!

    To be honest, I couldn’t be happier having someone help navigate me in changing jobs because for one, that's a crazy thing sometimes. You know the current system your in and are comfortable, but you want something more that's why your looking for a new job no matter the reason. But having someone help you and give you advice for real life is even more valuable. Mr. Bruce Leininger has been the biggest helping hand I could have ever encountered, great person and businessman! I’d also call him a great friend through all of this process.
