Would you like some help from an in-house recruiter with 18 years of successful recruiting experience and over 35 years helping job seekers create custom résumés and cover letters that moved them from GENERIC APPLICANTS to IDEAL CANDIDATES? In a nutshell, if you have the experience and recruiters are ignoring your generic résumés, here’s why. This is a job market that IGNORES GENERIC and REWARDS CUSTOMIZED.

In today’s labor market, with so many qualified, enthusiastic and available applicants who are WINNING THEIR ‘INNER GAME’, Human Resources, recruiters and hiring managers have their pick of the crop. If you are not part of the crop being picked and your self-confidence is in free-fall, this ‘INNER GAME’ Workbook is for you. WINNING YOUR ‘INNER GAME’ in this very competitive and niched economy means regaining and sustaining your personal resiliency, self-esteem, self-confidence, sense of future optimism, and belief in your ability to persist until you win interviews for meaningful work you want to do. JOB SEEKERS / SOLOPRENEURS / FREELANCERS / EXECUTIVES.IN.TRANSITION: It’s nearly impossible to keep your spirit up and fill your cover letters and résumés with positive and enthusiastic vibes when you’re losing your ‘INNER GAME’. And yet that’s what you must do because those are the applicants recruiters are calling. If your generic reverse-chronological résumés and cover letters are radiating fearful, angry or depressed vibes, recruiters and hiring managers pick up on them and step away from you. YOU are LOSING YOUR ‘INNER GAME’ and that makes YOU the primary cause for not getting interviews and work. Nothing will change until you learn to “see” yourself and then present yourself more effectively. The most effective way for that to happen and begin winning interviews for work you are qualified for and want to do is to identify and then customize your RELEVANT PROFESSIONAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS and SPECIAL SKILLS AND ABILITIES to create TARGETED RESUMES AND COVER LETTERS.

YOU CAN MAKE YOURSELF an IDEAL CANDIDATE EVERY TIME YOU APPLY.

About the Author

Personal Belief: You CAN be an “Ideal Candidate” every time you apply Definite Purpose: Teach people to “tastefully boast” and be an “Ideal Candidate” Personal Code: Judge by Results. Often harsh. Always fair Truth: “Through the streets of Bye-and-Bye one arrives at the House of Never” My obsession for the last three decades has been helping job seekers, solopreneurs, freelancers and executives-in-transition realize how incredibly competent and powerful they are, and use their accomplishments to stand out like a Meatball on a plate of spaghetti, customize their credentials to each opportunity, present themselves as “Ideal Candidates” and win interviews. During 18 years of domestic and international senior Human Resources management, my duties included recruiting and hiring, from entry level to executive, for Marriott Hotels, Chicago Pneumatic Tool Company, Cigna Worldwide, Dole and Chiquita. One accomplishment of which I’m especially proud: When I was Latin American Area HR director for Cigna Worldwide, Corporate decided to centralize their international operations and closed their various Area headquarters. I laid off 90 colleagues and then managed our Corporate in-house outplacement center. I affirm with total certainty that thanks to my interviewing training, résumé-writing and job search strategy skills, all 90 found jobs equal to or better than the ones they lost. I hold Bachelor and Master of Arts degrees in Latin American Area Studies and Latin American Literature from the University of Maryland. While you wouldn't know it to look at me, I am native speaker fluent in Spanish. For years I conducted a range of training programs in Spanish and English all over the United States, Europe, Central and South America, the Caribbean and Australia. Master my D-I-Y résumé-writing system and you’ll never again have to mass-post, mass-mail or “update your résumé” again because every Professional Profile you submit will be customized to the position’s specific requirements – quickly and simply. You’ll be an “Ideal Candidate” each time you apply. And if you are not hired, you’ll be able to easily “repurpose” your data and be an “Ideal Candidate” for new opportunities. Remember: If you can’t get the interview, your education and experience won’t matter.
