In-Person Resumé Workshop
Review and Improve Your Resume with Experienced Reviewers
In-Person Gathering will be at
Sandler Training by MP Solutions
6060 Rockside Woods Blvd N #105
Independence, OH
NCJS has recruited a group of highly experienced and skilled resumé experts to provide you with one-on-one, personalized reviews of your resumé or CV. Your resumé is one of your most important elements of the job search and with today's technologies many documents are screened out before they ever reach a human for review. Whether it is due to simple spelling or grammar errors, organization of information, formatting, or unedited content, it is essential to have the best resumé possible. One of the most common errors is skipping the step of having a proofreader/editor review your resumé. Our team of experts will offer a review for all of these and more in order to help you have the best possible representation of your experience, skills, and fit for your next job.
THIS IS NOT A RESUMÉ WRITING WORKSHOP
In order to take greatest advantage of this opportunity, you need to arrive with the BEST VERSION of your resumé in hand. There are countless online tools and references for resumé writing – use those to polish your resumé prior to this workshop. Our reviewers can then offer their expertise to help bring yours to the top of the hiring manager's stack.
However, even if you are just stuck and can't get your resumé where it needs to be, come to the workshop. You are definitely welcome and our reviewers will do everything they can to help you get your resumé where it needs to be.
BRING TO THE WORKSHOP:
• At least two copies of your current resumé or CV
• A Notepad & Pen
• Openness to constructive review and suggestions

Job Search
Troubleshooting Roundtable
We've all been there in our job searches... those times when we hit a speedbump or roadblock and need help talking it through. We have discovered in our virtual NCJS meetings that in addition to networking, some of our most valuable time is when we bring our issues to the group and ask for troubleshooting help. This meeting is a Roundtable of Experts -- ALL of us helping one another.
• Troubleshooting Help
• Tools & Tips
• Resource Sharing
• Networking
We will make the best use of this face-to-face time to help one another in a roundtable format. We will always have members of the community who have extensive experience, including our facilitators and board members. All are welcome and all are encouraged to seek input for solving those speedbumps and roadblocks.
