Perfect Your Profile

A well-presented profile is an important aspect to any successful career. To present yourself well, you need an impactful resume and LinkedIn profile that are up-to-date and appealing, highlighting your results and achievements. It doesn’t matter if you have a long history of achievements or not, I have the experience to help you present yourself as someone who makes things happen. With my skills, I can guide you on how to create a profile and resume that will make an impact. If you haven’t focused on LinkedIn with the excuse that you’re “not into social media”, it’s time for a change. From my experience, LinkedIn is not a typical social media platform, but a unique tool that professionals can take advantage of to expand their network across various industries. Through these networking connections, you can learn the advantages and disadvantages of specific careers and organizations and learn about new job opportunities before they are posted to the public.

Jim helped me immeasurably through my company’s COVID restructuring. I was reorganized into a new role as a result of downsizing and Jim helped me make the best possible choices and frame it in a way that made sense and helped me move forward equipped for success. I am very glad that I consulted him and am in a much better position than if I had not.
