You're reading this, so we don't have to tell you that the world of work is changing. With more than 1 million jobs lost in the last year alone and with jobs requiring a more specialized skill set, it's clear that the labor market is looking for certain qualities and skills.
If you're like most professionals, your resume is unexciting and a little stale; chances are there's not much on it that you haven't done or cannot do. And if that's the case, you're not going to stand out in a crowd of unemployed professionals. You're not going to be the first candidate who gets called for an interview or hired for a job.
And all this because you're not as attractive to employers as your competition is.
So what can you do? We've put together this article and video to give you an idea of how to upgrade your skills and update your resume so that it will get more attention from potential employers.
The first thing you'll want to do is take inventory of what skills are listed on your resume right now. If they're in a particular order (i.e. skills listed in order of importance), it's not a bad thing, but you'll want to consider shuffling them around. Of course, if you have a particular skill that you can't live without (like interpersonal skills,) keep it on your resume.
The next step is to identify new skills that will help your job search and employers find you more attractive and qualified. The first thing we would suggest is learning more about the types of jobs that are currently being posted for each skill set.
This means researching the top ten websites for that specific industry or job, as well as newspaper job ads, online forums, career sites, etc.
