I recently participated in a resume consult with Tim. I thought 15 minutes was not enough time. I…read morewas mistaken. Tim covered more ground in those 15 minutes than I probably do in a 30+ minute run. This was, of course, possible because he requested my resume when I scheduled the appointment. Not only did he review my resume prior to the session, he asked questions about my professional history, learned about my goals, and provided feedback. He provided insight, and persuaded me, to stop trying to scrunch my experience into just one page. He provided many visual examples (definitely appreciated them) and helped me find some key phrasing for describing my strengths. He also explained how I can help the hiring manager see how my current goal to pivot my career is a logical one. In the end, I was provided with a resume template. Honestly? I felt invigorated by the whole process, and ready to take on the world. It allowed me to revamp my resume so that I could finally start applying for new jobs. If you need help with your resume, or struggling to highlight how you excelled at your last role, I would definitely contact Next Jump to aid you.

I hired Annette at You're Hired! based on a referral through a shared contact at my local chamber…read moreof commerce. Initially, I was extremely skeptical of the business model. How could someone "prepare" your resume, your networking, your job search skills and help you best present yourself to employers - sounds gimmicky! Whatever happened to "just be yourself"? Over the course of several months, I was blown away with new and useful information, skills enhancements and talking points that Annette coached me in utilizing. From resume refinement, application processes and expectations, to interview prep and salary negotiations, she exceeded every benchmark and left no stone unturned. Annette is a wealth of knowledge and experience; her accessibility is unparalleled. I highly recommend You're Hired's full suite of services!

Regardless of your support of or opposition to war (and regular readers know where I stand), the…read morecold, tough fact that over a quarter of the homeless in the U.S. are veterans (5,000 of them alone are here in Pennsylvania), should be enough to move anyone of conscience to act. Veterans are alternately put onto pedestals and demonized. What is all too often forgotten is that they also end up unemployed, living on the streets, and plagued by physical and mental maladies. The VLPWPA, which celebrates its 30th anniversary next year, aims to rectify that in Western PA by finding veterans gainful work, decent housing, and by helping them readjust to civilian life in any other way they possibly can. One can send donations directly to the organization itself... http://partners.guidestar.org/controller/searchResults.gs?action_donateReport=1&partner=networkforgood&ein=25-1434643 Or...you can donate indirectly in a really fun and scrumptious way. Go to a King's Family Restaurant and order the Double Fudgin' Trouble Sundae for dessert. A portion of the proceeds from each one of these deridiculicious treats goes to the VLPWPA. While it may not be good for you (deep-fried brownies are involved), it will do another person's life a bit of good.
