The Most Qualified Candidate Doesn’t Always Get the Job

FACT: The people who are hired for a job are the ones that market themselves well, NOT the ones most qualified for it.

Every step of finding a job and starting a career is a form of marketing, or “selling” your value. Resumes are key factors in this process. They are *not* autobiographies. They should only include what will contribute to the result you want: an interview, and a job. The purpose of a resume is to tell companies how you can add value to their work. It uses past life experiences (education, work, etc.) to demonstrate your potential for success within their employment. Getting your resume ship-shape and in a position to sell your value to potential employers is key to landing a great job.
