Meet My Newest Partners

Meet My Newest Partners Last week I flew to Savannah, Georgia, to attend the National Resume Writers Association conference. It was the second conference that Ive been to in the career professional space and I absolutely loved it. My last industry was building maintenance/management, and conferences there were filled with people that didnt want to be there, and wondering where the next golf course or restaurant was. However, people attending these conferences are usually paying their own way to be there, so they dont really want to miss a thing. In addition, the conferences are small (around 100 people), so during the three days you can meet just about everyone. Resume writers are special people. I couldnt do it I know my personality and what drives me, and the level of attention and creativity needed to write a strong resume in a challenging situation is something that I doubt I would be able to make a career out of. I remember last year when I did The Resume Experiment, Pete Johnson left a comment saying that he believes everyone should write their own resume. I definitely agree, going through the process is important, and we should all do it. But there are times when calling in a professional is necessary, or wise (or both)! Sitting through the sessions at this conference gave me a new appreciation for professional resume writers. There is art, mixed with science, and these professionals are at the top of their game (and working to improve). Some have chosen to partner with JibberJobber to add value to the client relationship, as well as make their operations and marketing more effective and efficient. Im pleased to present to you my seven newest partners (in the order that they signed up): Kathy Warwick, Confident Careers Linsey Levine, Career Counsel Bonnie Kurka, Executive Career Suite Susan Whitcomb, Career Coach Academy Eleanore Farmer, Be Ready Resumes Claudine Vainrub, EduPlan Marcia Baker, Mark of Success Many of you know where Ive come from since last January. I was the guy who couldnt get an interview (because my resume had problems). I was the guy who went from 60 to zero pretty quick. It was demoralizing. Now, I have something cool that industry leaders are jumping on, and it is very, very flattering. Im honored to be associated with these new partners, and thrilled to add them to my existing partners list!
