It is time to start with the Super Resume! Ta-da!
One strong technique is to start with a Master Resume that contains all of your story elements. You can then cull it to match the job you are applying for and tuned for the Applicant Tracking System that might screen you in our out.
Let’s start first with what you have done and the Transferable Skills you want to highlight. You also have three versions of your story that you created with your maps that may have nuggets to pull from that are not in your current resume content.
Write on your working scratch paper or digital document the Transferable Skills from the earlier exercise that you want to do in your next job or series of jobs.
Highlight or mark the top 3. Now, go to your resume and highlight or mark every item that supports those skills.
Do you have support for all of them?
Do you need to rewrite them to match the story elements? If so, take some time now to edit those items. We’ll continue to edit them as we come here with more tools.
What percentage of your resume did you mark as helping your story?
What else is left? Do those items support your story? Add flavor? Confuse or muddy the story?
Do they need to be added only for certain jobs? Are they part of an old story about you and not the one you are moving toward? Do they need to be refocused and rewritten to support the story?
