Resume Writing - Plus!

What some job seekers call a resume is what employers call a job obituary - a written dissertation of everything-you've-ever-done-in-your-life in grim and boring detail. This is like inviting an honored guest to dinner without knowing what they eat. Or like asking the employer to make some sense out of your life... please.

Powerful resumes that get you the interviews are marketing tools that are word portraits describing you at your best in your readers' eyes. The radio station playing in your reader's head is WIIFM - What's in It For Me? The operative word in Darlene's resumes is relevant. Not more.

Ready to Go Job Search Package

This is your complete toolkit for getting that next job.

Darlene Cook knows that most jobs don't go to the most qualified; they go to those who know the most about how to get hired. Just look at the top twenty music picks or the New York Times' best seller list. Believe they are the best musicians or writers? Actually, they are the musicians and writers who knew the most about how to get promoted or published.

Career Coaching

Most of us know more about how to buy a computer or landscape our lawns than how to manage our work lives. Its America's best kept secret.

Remember the Cheshire Cat's conversation with Alice when she asked, "Which way should I go from here?" And after the Cat asked her where she wanted to go, she replied, "It doesn't matter." The cat then responded - "Well if you just keep walking long enough you're sure to get somewhere."

Please don't waste your life wandering.

Retirement Coaching

Facing Retirement?  Yesterday's 65 is today's 55. No one at this age today is ready to "retire". Today, retirement is a career transition. A time for a new beginning -- a Second Act -- not an end.

But this time you get to make it work for you!

Besides, actuarians are telling us we will probably spend more years after retirement than during our primary careers. How are you going to spend this new life?

Life Coaching

If you keep doing what you're doing; you'll keep getting what you're getting. Or in Maya Angelou's words, "If you want something you haven't got; you need to do something you've never done."

Executives have them. Athletes and artists have them. Ivy league college grads are told to go out and get one.

Life Coaches show people how to reach their greatest potential while conquering their toughest adversaries: self-doubt and self-limitation.

People hire coaches for lots of different reasons, but the bottom line is always for CHANGE.
