Resume Checklist & Scorecard

Does Your Resume Pass the Resume Scanner AND Human Tests?Is it Effective? Competitive?

Will it win you an INTERVIEW?(that’s the purpose of a resume after all!)

Nowadays resume scanning software (ATS = applicant tracking systems / software) are the first “gatekeeper” your resume will have to pass before a human will ever lay eyes on it.

Unlike many instructors, I’ve actually been a professional Resume Writer for 15+ years, with 1000+ clients, easily. I want to share my “Insider’s Insights” with job seekers just like you in this, and all my courses!

You will learn how to REVIEW YOUR OWN RESUME, to evaluatewhether any resume will likely “pass the tests”, in depth, with a series of sample resumes to review and critique using the “Resume Scorecard & Checklist” materials provided.

• To start, I’ll walk you through step-by-step

• Next, I let you try reviewing some sample resume on your own to practice

• Followed by my commentary to check your assessments

• To wrap up, I provide 5 additional resumes you can use to practice with Resume Checklist & Scorecard provided to guide you(remember to do this for YOUR RESUME, too!)

• Written versions (as PDF docs) of many of the key aspects of this video course are also provided!

Section 1: Software Scanners vs. Humans: what do they look for – what’s different, what’s the same (+ a bit about ‘graphic design style’ resumes & templates – should you, or should you not use these?)

Section 2: Sample Resume #1 – I’ll walk you through a Sample Resume Review, step-by-step, then, guide you to practice yourself in two ways:

1) Common Questions/Issues and

2) Format

You’ll also see the “AFTER” version of this resume, the rewrite that incorporates the feedback!

(as a Bonus, the pdf versions are included here as well!)

Section 3: Your Turn! Samples Resume #2 – Review & Compare you will

First review yourself,

Then I’ll evaluate it in depth, so you can compare what you noticed with what I see and would recommend.

AND,

There is also an “AFTER / Improved” version shown with suggestions incorporated here, too.

Section 4: Keep Practicing! Evaluate 5 more sample resumes, from different industries, and job types. (see below for timestamps for each resume/type)

You’ll do this on your own, without my input – but, I provide you with some resources to guide you:

1) a Resume Review Checklist & Scorecard to ‘grade’ each resume

2) a SAMPLE ‘scored’ resume using the Checklist

3) 5 Sample Resumes to practice scoring/critiquing

By the end, the goal (the “Class Project”) is that you feel confident in reviewing YOUR RESUME and evaluating what you can do to improve it, and thus, your chances of getting invited for an interview!

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
