You didn't expect your parents to make you successful as an adult did you? Your parents have done their job of raising you to be a responsible adult....now it's time to show them what and how you can use all the great principles of adulthood to good use. 

As I'm writing this, I also realize that not everyone had the same upbringing or even had parents to teach them about being responsible adults. You have had to learn quite a bit about life on your own, so I understand. 

I want all of you to know...no matter your background, past or circumstances, the success or failure you achieve in life is completely and totally, your responsibility and within your control. Once you reach the ripe old age of eighteen (18), you are officially an adult. If your parents or anyone else helps you financially, economically or in any way, it's a bonus. Be grateful! They are not obligated to help you, so if they do...please do not take it for granted and show some gratitude.

The heights of your #career and #business ventures are completely in your arsenal of control. I want you to take charge of your destiny, but I want you to know something extremely vital. You must have FOCUS and you must HAVE A PLAN to keep your overall career and business development focus in check.  

If you do not have a plan or still trying to figure your next career move, then I can certainly help you with that...I have a guide that help you get focused and create a plan for your career venture or business development. You can access the DREAM CAREER GUIDE by going here. 

If you're looking for for a more direct and concrete plan for your business or career development, then schedule a "CAREER STRATEGY" session with me by going here.

In a typical job interview, you are getting questions like, "Why should I hire you?" to specifically evaluate how you can sell yourself, your skills, knowledge base and qualifications to meet and exceed their business needs for the position. In this episode, I provide a few examples of how you can respond to this question showing the interviewer you did your thorough research on the company and their immediate need to get this position filled and how you can meet those needs. 

If you're not prepared for your next interview, this question can fluster you and how you respond. I urge you to be fully prepared to respond these and other challenging questions during your next job interview. Your responses can mean the difference between getting the job offer or never speaking to this employer again. 

To help you prepare for your next interview, I have an audio series that uncovers 7 ways to dominate in your next job interview. You can grab a copy of the audio series here at https://mentorshelly.com/services/interview-help.

Your SUMMARY STATEMENTS (Summary Paragraph)

Now, this summary paragraph gave the employer a snapshot of what my client’s skills, their capabilities and their years of experience accomplishing the goals in their role. Now, keep in mind, the rest of the resume should quantify all the statements in the summary paragraph but it paints a great picture of my client so far.

By the way, does your resume have a summary paragraph helping to sell your skills, knowledge base, experience and qualification? If not, then a couple of resources to help you with that. If you’re looking to have your resume reviewed to see if it is working for you…then check out my first resource at https://mentorshelly.com/services/toolsreview. If you need your resume to be complete rewritten or created because you don’t have one or have a ineffective one….then check out my second resource at https://mentorshelly.com/resume-services.
