Resume'101

When was the last time you updated your resume'? Does it still look like the one you created when you graduated from high school or college? Have you acquired any new skills that need to be added? If you have served in the armed forces have you included that experience? These are questions you need to ask yourself.

The purpose of your resume' is to sell yourself on paper and to out shine the hundreds or thousands of other applicants applying for the same position. This seems easy enough, yet many do not take the steps necessary to be successful.

Your resume' does not get you the job or opportunity, you do that, but your resume' allows the potential employer to consider you worth their time over other applicants based on what they see on paper.

If you are looking to transition into a better paying job, a new or more challenging position,moving to another state, or completing military service and want to begin civilian employment you have a better chance if you can express all you have done ideally in one to two pages that highlights you as the perfect candidate the employer is looking for.

Let us here at DSWoodard Consulting assist you in putting your best foot forward on paper so that you shine and are the one called for that interview or business opportunity.

Good luck & much success

Are You Doing Too Much? How Do You Know? Push!

From my I-Phone  Greetings High Achievers!! It is the middle of the summer season.  It has been such a hot summer, yet I still find time to get out and walk daily.  The photo to the left is of a flock of geese crossing the lake that we walk across.  I wanted to share this for two reasons, one it's beautiful and two every photo on the internet costs money.  I understand that people like to get paid, but there was a time I could get quality photos with a few clicks.  Well what's been going on in your business world?   I have been building a few things as usual.  Many times I think I'm doing too much.  Often I think I'm not doing enough.  As soon as I think that one of my business partners decides that they want to be so active and push the business along for five minutes, and then I'm on my own again.  Have you had times of  discouragement in your business endeavors?  I'm sure we all have.  This past year I have fo...

You Have to Know When it's Time !

  Hey High Achiever's.  I love you all and love sharing advice with you.  I have tried for more than a year to get Google to allow me to monetize this platform.  I'm not sure what I am not doing correctly, but I have shared for 15 years.  Unless I figure out the code, this channel will be shut down this year 2024.  I will give you the information to follow me on a new platform soon.  Thank you for your support.   To Your Success, D.S.

How Do You Spell Love? Time !

  Good Morning High Achievers!  The holiday season is here and spending time is so important especially now.  Happiness is an inside job.  The main reason for being great and creating a legacy is so that you leave great memories and traditions to pass from generation to generation.   This year my family and I began a new tradition for what others call Thanksgiving.  We haven't celebrated in a few years, since finding out that what we thought was the reason was not true, but we still continued to gather, now we have decided that what we would like to do is travel for this holiday, since the rest of society is closed at the same time.   As a business owner and a person who works in corporate America I've found that we can get so caught up in the everyday hustle and bustle routine that we forget to pause, relax and enjoy the fun parts in life.  We don't know how much time we have and it doesn't matter what our age is.  These are my gra...
