For personal branding to be
successful, an IT resource's resume must be able to clearly
articulate how he or she solves an IT need of the potential
employer. A resource's personal brand includes who he or she
is (personality and values), the skill set that he or she
brings o the table, and his or her past accomplishments
(validation).
Any personal branding is an art, and personal IT branding is
a particular art. AVVAL has worked closely with IT managers
across a broad range of industries and IT Technologies
daily, for years, placing successful IT talent successfully,
at all corporate levels of IT. As part of our client
services we do role review for internal IT positions, giving
us solid insight into how job roles develop and change. All
this IT specific experience gives our people a unique
insight into IT personal branding, allowing us to better
guide your outplaced IT resources in creating a successful
personal IT brand.
As part of AVVAL's outplacement services, AVVAL provides
outplaced resources with Resume Review advice. An IT
resource is more than a laundry list of his or her skills
and projects. To successfully land a job at any level in IT,
he or she must have a readable resume that will communicate
to hiring managers and HR gatekeepers his or her "brand" and
the value of that brand to them. A strong brand is
successful. A resume with the right branding can help bring
"best fit" hiring opportunities and help a resource get the
IT jobs he or she wants.
AVVAL specializes in IT recruiting. We talk to IT managers
everyday, so we know what they are looking for. We help
clients create job descriptions and do role review as part
of our work alignment service. We successfully place IT
contract consultants and permanent IT candidates, in jobs
ranging from top level CIO's and VP's of Infrastructure, all
the way down to programmers, DBA's, and certified networking
professionals. We have the requisite IT expertise to better
help your outplaced resources with personal IT branding and
creating resumes targeted to the IT job market.
Resume and Cover Letter Advice
Many physical factors can affect whether a resource's resume
is read or quickly dismissed without review: Style of
resume, whether chronologically or accomplishment based, use
of IT skill and management related Key Words and phrases,
and a strong objective are all important. AVVAL personnel
will help guide your outpaced IT resource with using these
resume elements appropriately, as well as providing guidance
on creating cover letters, keeping the resume to a readable
length, and writing a well defined job objective. AVVAL will
also advise the resource as to how to handle chronological
gaps and other common resume problems.
Resume writing advice abounds, but IT resumes are
particularly skill and achievement oriented. As part of our
RPO (Recruitment Process Outsourcing) services, we handle
resumes for clients, so our people know how to read IT
resumes. We are in a good position to provide advice on how
to create a reasonable, readable IT resume that won't be
rejected outright. |
