September is the perfect time to start a
new approach to career care-taking. While children are embarking on
starting the new school year, adults should also be taking stock of
their professional attributes and career value by updating their
resumes.
What we think of as a 'life print,' or
guideline for career development, will provide a proactive approach
toward meeting unforeseen market and company changes, in reevaluating
personal worth and in preparing to obtain the next step in career
growth. Too often job seekers avoid taking this crucial step until the
last minute, when they need their resume yesterday. However, by
declaring September as the official update month, people will have the
opportunity to better control and champion their own futures.
During Update Your Resume Month, every
member of CDI will be dedicated to alerting their clients to the
value of taking this crucial step in their career development. CDI
members will educate clients on one service per week in September,
including the Resume Update, Cover Letter Development, Interview
Preparation and Job Search Strategy.
Utilize the following Resume Update Form
