FREE RESUME REVIEW RESOURCES

If you are struggling with your #resume and you are not in a position to pay someone to review it for you, here are 5 FREE resources that can help you.

Thank you so much Oluseun Kwesi Ajayi for sharing this resourceful item with us.

Another thought just crossed my mind: if you can see this and are in a position to use these resources, you can position yourself as a resume reviewer (and use these tools) to provide AFFORDABLE resume review services to those around you looking for a job. Especially if they can't access a computer or a mobile phone or internet.

Instead of staying at home idle waiting for feedback from all those job applications you have made, why not start a self-employed engagement by offering these services to new job seekers? Just a thought 💭...

Let's share widely 🤓. Stay informed 😊. Stay inspired 🤗.
