ABSTRACT
You would not respond to a burglary call at night without a flashlight, nor would you go into a military battle without a gun. Anyone entering the career-seeking arena must possess the proper tools to succeed as well. You must accept that you are not only going to be effectively “selling yourself,” but you will have to outsell many others in a similar situation as yours. The more tools you have available to accomplish this, the better your chances for career success. This isn’t simply motivational talk, just like the rest of my book, this is a guide to avoiding pitfalls and capitalizing on what you have to work with. Your professional résumé is absolutely where this process must begin.
