Resume Tips on New Radio Show
The Resume Bay, a career consultant company and group of professional resume writers, has launched an Internet radio show to offer resume tips and career advice to the millions of college graduates and unemployed workers throughout the country.
The show, called "Resume Bay Radio," will focus on providing career insight to candidates searching for a job, including interviewing tips, salary negotiation, creative ways to network, why networking is important, the importance of a customized resume, proper follow-up after an interview, how to convert a phone interview to a face-to-face interview and how to leverage Web 2.0 during the job search.
During the past month, the show has aired a strong series of interviews, including one with David Horne, author of Career Secret Sauce. Horne detailed the specific challenges facing recent college graduates.
The show also interviewed Dr. Debra Condren, author of Ambition is Not a Dirty Word. In the interview, Condren explained how freelancing opportunities are a good way to come out of unemployment.
"By acting like a professional, rather than someone who is willing to give his or her services away by low-balling prices, you can work with companies to receive up to half of your fees upfront," Condren said. "Even in this market, people want to make sure that they are hiring the very best talent - the very best experts and freelancers."
Other people interviewed on the show have included Frances Coles Jones, author of How to Wow; Jill Spiegel, featured guest on the Oprah Show and the Today Show; Linda C. Thompson, author of I Am My Own Dragon; Dr. Nancy and Randall Bell.
Resume Bay Radio already has several interviews scheduled for May, including interviews with featured career authors Michael Port, Jay Conrad Levinson and Monroe Mann. Once recorded, all interviews are available at the Resume Bay for download.
The Resume Bay also is working on a Webinar, entitled the "Career Empowerment Series." The Webinar, to be presented in four parts, will include: Sharpening Your Axe - Preparing for your job search; Catching the Big Fish - Strategies for getting noticed in a crowded job market; Selling Yourself Without Selling Out - Proven interview methods you can use immediately and Too Cool for School - Negotiating a great job package and how to handle your first 30 days.
