thank you sister
Great video that helped me wrap my head around how to convert the info in my chronological resume into a functional resume. I was happy to hear that there was a link to a template below the video, but it wasn't there when I went to find it.

❤ nice and great instruction s
Thank you
Ok, yes great video...lots of good info. I took your advice and went to the template resume builder. I'm trying to create a functional resume with the template resume builder. None of the templates seem to work for a functional resume. I've tried to manipulate different functions within the templates and just can't get them to work. Am I missing something? or should the resume template not be included as a resource in this functional resume video?
Thank you for the helpful video. I want to get back into the video editing industry I was in 15 years ago, but my "work gap" still worries me as I was in customer service for the last 11 years. Im worried it will be a "red flag" since technology progresses so quickly.

Nice teaching 👌
I’m currently working as Technical Support Analyst but now I’m looking for new role in software development so how I can make good summary statement that demonstrates my experiences and skills?
where can I find the exact format as shown here
Hello! Is this resume template accepted by the UK as well? Thank you🙏
If I didn’t finish college and wasn’t planning on it anytime soon, should I still include it in my resume?
you say pay attention to detail but my man James Kennedy wrote 'Combact medic' on as his personal summary @6:31...kinda bit SUS you know >.>
Tankyou sister
Is the resume builder only in the app? I'm having a hard time finding it on the website, I was hoping it would be linked in the description here.

No problem!
Any tips for having an Indeed profile anonymously so that my current employer doesn't find out that I am seeking a new job ? I went to a small town college. That, along with the experience and current job role I have I believe would definitely stand out and I would be questioned by my current company as to why I am looking for work....at worst, I would be fired.

Sue them if that happens. What would they say in court? He was cheating on us? I’m in the same spot as you, I know how you’re feeling.
Also, anyone can just list skills. Don't expect them to take your word for it. Explain how you used those skills.

Think I don't get about this is you can just lie? So how does explaining how you use to make any difference
What if you don’t have no summary to put for a resume
So sweet 💗
Great advice. Ignore these so called ‘niche’, ‘boutique’ recruitment ‘specialists’ popping up everywhere. Apparently, a success rate of 1 in 40 interviews is fine and several years dormant out of the workforce still makes you highly employable (whilst you live in the back of your car or under a bridge, I presume). They also suggest settling down at 40. Bonkers advice. Without any job prospects, where would you live? What would you eat? And at that age it’s too late to start a family. Just doesn’t make sense Sinead!
I know you're not going to redo a video over a mispronunciation but, just for future reference, in "Achieved Commandants List" the word commandant is pronounced more like common-daunt.
This is wrong. The sections of information you create and the order in which you put them is entirely your decision. The correct order is the one that highlights your most relevant skills first. If your education is more relevant than your work experience, you should lead with relevant details in your education.
Isn't the labour we have to do in order to do labour, disgusting? Isn't this the most messed up thing? If you can do the job, you can do the job, and the majority of humanity has only been reading for the last 200 years.
