The Business Casual Show

In this episode, I share some tips about resume length, content, and structure, based on my own experience as a hiring manager, and based on feedback from a few professional recruiters who graciously shared their thoughts.  Let’s face it - writing your resume can feel like the worst experience, especially for those early in their careers. How do you reflect your experience when you’ve just graduated?  How do you avoid sounding like you're bragging about yourself?  Do you say “I” or do you say “we”?  Should it be 1 page or 2 pages?  Education listed first or last? Personal bio? Objective statement? Headshot? We all find ourselves asking countless questions like these and receiving endless advice from our parents, professors, peers - the list of people who have opinions to share is endless. So let’s add amateur podcasters to the list.  While I may not have spent my career in recruiting, I have reviewed literally thousands of resumes as a hiring manager in small and large companies, and I happen to be friends with a few very talented professional recruiters who shared their thoughts with me as I was preparing for this episode. Business Casual is focused on those early in their career, trying to navigate the workplace for the first time. I hope you enjoy this episode.

Hey there! I’m Jamie, and I’m the host of Business Casual, a new podcast for early career professionals.  I know what it's like to navigate the workplace, trying to balance life and work, while pursuing career goals, promotion opportunities, imposter syndrome, salary negotiations…the list goes on.  That’s why I started Business Casual. I want to help you navigate these issues and more…and to help you achieve your goals.  Each week, I (and sometimes a guest expert) will answer questions from listeners about topics like how to network, how to dress for success, how to deal with difficult co-workers, how to navigate the interviewing process, and more. Each episode will be around 15 minutes long - perfect for that morning coffee or drive into the office.  I’ll occasionally bring experts on to address specific topics - some of these experts have worked for large companies like Disney, Google, and Amazon, while others are successful entrepreneurs who have carved their own paths.  So, if you are looking for helpful information from people who have been there (and not too long ago!), tune into Business Casual.  You can find Business Casual on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.  If you want to have your question answered on a future episode, message me on Instagram (@businesscasualshow) or send an email to BusinessCasualShow@gmail.com. Business Casual - It’s business…but casual.
