truggling to find the job of your dreams? You’re in good company! I’m Liz Illg, an Operational Strategist, Business Consultant, and Professional Word Whisperer. Everyday, I work with job hunters who have had the exact same experience. Here’s what you don’t see: While you are struggling to find a job, business owners are struggling to fill jobs! This is the biggest pain point for the business clients I work with. No matter how hard they try, they just can’t find the right fit for their business. Why the disconnect? It all boils down to technology and automation. In today’s high tech world, it is rare that your application or resume makes it in front of a human being. Instead, resumes are sorted and ranked using Applicant Tracking Systems. Applicant Tracking Systems use key word identifiers to find and present only the “best” resumes to employers. The downside? Simple errors in formatting and wording can cause your resume to fall to the bottom of the pile. Even if you are the best fit for the job, your resume may never see the light of day. Now for the good news. Employers are looking for you! They need qualified, dedicated professionals to staff their companies.

A Printable Resume Capture your career and personal skills in a highly readable format with an appealing graphic design that will WOW employers in six seconds or less.
