Your résumé tells a story. What kind of story does yours tell? A résumé is a significant part of any job search. Along with your cover letter, it’s usually the first contact you have with potential employers. That’s why your résumé needs to be well thought out, so it tells your story effectively…
When you give your résumé to a potential employer, what exactly should you be handing him/her? What should it reflect? How should it present who you are? How in-depth should it be? What should or shouldn’t it include?

You should not do your job search alone. You can be independent, but not a loner. You need others to review your résumé, to provide job leads, to offer advice, to be referrals. A job search is indeed a group effort.
God has been weaving your résumé, and building your skill set with every job you’ve held. Even now, in your job search, He is doing the same thing. He is building your skills to enable you to make a unique contribution to His adventure.
