"Without FOCUS everything is important." This quote rings truth in crafting a spectacular resume headline.
Does your resume headline bolster with authority? Unfortunately, many resumes lack this all-to-important point.
Do you know why it is essential that your headline is written with precision. It's simple, it is the six seconds rule. Basically, the hiring authorities are reading a myriad of resumes at an alarming speed and the last thing you want your resume to lack is FOCUS. It delays your progress in moving in the career direction you are called to fulfill.
Believe it or not, many pharmaceutical and medical device sales representives haphazardly pen headlines that are boring and not compelling.
Why? The vital reason for this is “lack of focus.” It is the illusion that your vague and wordy resume headline will lure the hiring authority by osmosis.
Unfortunately, it does not happen in this fashion. An investment of time and energy is required to architect a powerful value-based resume that "red-carpet" your selling genius.
The art of crafting a unique headline is not for the faint-at-heart; but for the determined.
I challenge you to make the decision to review your resume's headline and ensure it has FOCUS. One of the best career professionals in the business said it best, "your most financially important document you will ever own is your resume."
Proceed with caution and make the investment now and reap the benefits in the future.
