This Saturday, I’ll be conducting a workshop with JobsCentral on How To Write Winning Resumes. We’re rerunning this workshop after popular demand from the 1st run in March (Pictures here) . This is the 3rd time I’m conducting this workshop, and 2nd time I’m holding it with JobsCentral. Having a winning resume is the first of the 2 steps to getting your desired job (2nd being interview), and if you want to maximize your chances of employment success, it’s important you learn how to write your personal best resume.

Whether you are an undergraduate, fresh graduate or an experienced professional who wants to improve your resume writing skills and increase your employment opportunities, this workshop will be highly beneficial for you.

I’ll be training on resume fundamentals (to get everyone started off on the right page, so don’t worry if you have little background on resume writing), how to really write your resume and bring out your best (both for beginners and experienced resume writers), and I’ll also share strategies and tips on how to reach out to employers in the market as a bonus, and case studies of how others have nabbed their jobs via those same strategies. We’ll also be doing resume critiquing to apply the strategies learned, so be sure to bring 2 hard copies of your resume and email a soft copy to info [ at ] tsope.net before the workshop
