MARKETING PLAN
A marketing plan sells you and defines the work you desire. You will find that much of the information in your marketing plan will be repeated in your resume. However, as a job seeker, you may find a marketing plan helpful to organize your personal professional facts prior to creating your resume. Another way that you can use a personal marketing plan is as a one-page factual document to use during networking. Please view out Marketing Plan Fundamentals Guide to get started on your marketing plan.

RESUME
An effective, powerful resume can make the difference between frustration and success in your job search. Your goal should be to make your resume eye-appealing and readable, concise yet filled with relevant information. Recruiters spend at most 1-2 minutes reviewing your resume during an initial screening, so you must clearly state the value you can bring and tailor content to the reader's needs. Below are several sample resumes in addition to the
Resume Fundamentals Guide to help you with writing your resume.
