  • Have a perfected resume and cover letter that has been professionally reviewed and/or written. Ensure that both documents display and maximize your professional accomplishments and value.
  • Take a professional portfolio to all interviews and networking events.
  • Get your resume into the hands of the decision makers. Work with an Agent such as PARADIGM who has a network that you can access.
