Hi Everyone! What are your biggest issues when putting together your resume?
Hello Andy, Can you share your thoughts about whether or not you want a prospecting employer contacting the current employer. I know they have to confirm that you worked there but if you don't want the employer (i.e. supervisor/manager) to know you are seeking other opportunities. I've heard both sides and want to settle this within myself.
I find your information very useful since I haven't really looked at my resume in a decade and I now want to change careers and I have no experience in the industry that I am now seeking. How can I best address that through my resume? I know that my previous skills are transferable but just want to best address that in the resume as well as he cover letter.
L. that's a great question. a prospecting employer should NOT contact a current employer until you've agreed to work for the prospect, signed you acceptance/employment letter, and given them permission to do a background check. If they call your current (soon to be former employer), the employer should give very little information on you other than you work/worked there.
L. Watch this: ruclips.net/video/W0Ytkc5GM08/видео.html. I go into detail. This one too: ruclips.net/video/KzTQH0WEMJQ/видео.html
Andrew, I appreciate your response. Thank you. I will view the suggested video. Will share more later. L.
No word of a lie, I switched my resume to this format and applied to a company I have been applying to for the past two years with zero luck. I submitted my resume to them again last night after following this video and woke up to an email from them requesting to schedule an interview. THIS ACTUALLY WORKS GUYS!
Now time to watch your interview tips and prep.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ANDREW!
Thanks for sharing! Best of luck!
How did it go?
I'm a masters graduate and have a career team that's highly reputable but have failed to get interviews. Out of desperation, I THANKFULLY found this video and after following these instructions and the cover letter video's advice, I'm finally receiving interviews. Thank you so SO much!
Andrew, thanks to your RUclips videos I wrote an ultimate resume, got noticed, had the interview and just got hired with a significant raise one step above my current title. You’re an excellent teacher and mentor. I’ve learned so much from your success. Thank you so much! God bless.
Thank you Andrew! I've followed your steps and I've now been hired by Google!
Outstanding Luis!!!!! Congratulations!
WOW..... Can I ask you how you got into google?
Lodged in to his computer
wow
Andrew is excellent in his advice, completely genuine, sincere, generous in spirit, motivational and makes me smile inside and outwardly. Thank you, Andrew!
Hey Andrew,
I just wanted to thank you for putting this content out. I watched hours and hours of your content and applied much of your resume template to my own.
During the interview I asked the key question, “What would success look like for me a year from now, if this works out and I am the candidate you are looking for.”
It was a panel interview and I could tell my prospective new manager really liked the question.
At the close I thanked them for their time and told them “I want to make this work.” I repeated that I had done a lot of research on their website and explained how their 4 key cultural pillars exactly aligned with my personal standards and the way I seek to conduct myself as a professional.
They came back with an offer the next day and it was an outstanding offer! Thank you so much for equipping me to meet this challenge and better my life and my growing family’s life. Thank you thank you thank you!!
Craig, you’re so welcome and thank YOU for sharing this! Huge 🥳 congrats!🎈🎊🍾🎉
Love to hear this Craig!!!
Hey Craig, you still got your resume template? I'm trying to builde mine
The biggest issues with my resume was having no idea how to format it and make my job duties stand out. Thanks to your help with my resume, along with your thank you note sample and top 5 questions to ask the interviewer I was offered the position I wanted even though I failed the technical interview which caught me completely off guard - but they were so impressed with everything else they decided that they will train me on the coding aspects of the job. Thanks again.
Diane Sanders Yaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyy! So glad to hear Diane. Lots of luck with the new job!!
Congratulations. Thank GOD
I just landed TWO INTERVIEWS from following your instructions and mixing in your collegiate style format as well (I'm fourth year university student) THANK YOU
Love to hear it. Good luck with the interviews!!
This gives me so much hope because I am a final year student too and I am going to apply his techniques! Wish me luck!
Hey Andrew,
I had to let you know after watching your videos and rewriting my resume, I received an offer within a month!!
Thank you so much for all the free content you provide. You completely changed the way I thought about resumes and job interviews and I wouldn’t have gotten this offer without you!
Thanks again,
Matt
Outstanding my friend!!! So glad to hear this!!! Congrats!
Hi Andrew: I just want to say you came up on youtube just when I was most frustrated and discouraged. Thank you so much for your professional free advise and material to work with. You are a Godsend.
Hi Andrew, I just want to say thank you for your videos. Since I watched this video teaching how to make a good resume, I started to receive invitations for interviews.
I spent 8 months sending resumes in Canada and I never got a call for an Interview. This week I did 3 interviews and last week I did 2. Today I was hired, after almost 8 months looking for a job.
Thank you so much for your help, good luck with your company and I'll tell all my friends to subscribe to your RUclips channel.
Alline, I read this comment 3 times and I smile bigger every time I read it. Thank you for making my day and I'm so thrilled my material helped you! Lots of luck with the new job. And, thanks so much for referring your friends to me. That's the best compliment you can ever give. :)
Thank you so much Andrew. Embarking on a new career path after many years in furniture sales. I truly can not express my gratitude for your knowledge and generosity. Your valuable time is greatly appreciated.
Hello Andrew, I just want to say THANK YOU !! THANK YOU !! THANK YOU!! for all the information and advice you provided. I did exactly as you said and landed 3 interviews and a new career came out of them just 4 days after restructuring my resume and cover letter. Thank you again !!
Love to hear this Roel. Huge congratulations to you!!!!
This is exactly what I needed to hear as I'm exploring new opportunities this year. And everything was said in just the right words. I typically always dread working on my resume but once in awhile I get excited to get into it and this video totally did that :)
Thank you !!
You’re sooo welcome!!!
After using your template and incorporating your tips on getting my resume noticed, I heard back right away from just the second job I applied for. Thanks, Andrew!
Nice work! Glad it was helpful.
Thank you so much for this. I'm freshly out of the military, and my resume I felt was sub-par. I stumbled across this video and used the templates to help rewire mine. I pulled a little bit of a tricky move, that way I applied online, but went in the next day with my resume and said it wouldn't load for some reason, which allowed me face time with the hiring authority and showed I had confidence. As we all know that's huge in the retail world. I got the job and I think I can credit that to you and your videos. Thank you so much again.
Jonathan DeVore that’s awesome! Thanks for engaging in material and thanks for commenting. Most importantly, thanks for letting me know the outcome and I’m glad you were properly aggressive. That’s what you should be and I’m glad it paid off for you Jonathan! Los of luck with the new gig!
Hi Andrew, I just want to say thank you for this video! It was very helpful. I followed your tips and resume template and now I’m receiving so many calls and emails from future employers! Before I changed up my resume. I was not receiving any calls for almost two months! Until recently, after I updated my resume into a better template in which you shared via email. Again, thank you so much. I feel very optimistic about my future.
Glad it helped!
I just ran into one of your videos today and has already watched 6 of them lol. I love your delivery and examples...EXAMPLES ARE EVERYTHING!!!! Keep ‘em coming!
Love to hear it Mercedes!!!
Thank you so much, Andrew! I'm attempting to write my first resume in 6 years and this video and you have both been a great help. Thanks again for all the hard work you do to try and help people. :)
tim obert you’re welcome Tim. I’m so glad the video will help you!
Andrew, I haven’t even started my new resume yet but had to stop and say you are the REAL DEAL and wish I could have someone like you managing my career. I’ve watched and read as many of these videos, books, podcast, etc. as you have resumes and this entire process has gone to the dogs you were speaking about. What happened to KISS? I agree with everything you are saying, use common sense and put yourself behind the desk. Ask yourself what you would want to see and go from there. Thanks for the latest tips and refreshers.
Amy!!! LOVE. Just love this and thank you for the very kind words. And, of course, you are more than welcome. BTW, I had a kick butt resume writing masterclass I conducted for free back in September. It was such as huge hit, I'm running it again November 9th. Need to sign up by Nov 5. Here are the dets and I genuinely hope you can come! www.milewalkacademy.com/p/andrew-lacivita-resume-writing-live-masterclass
Andrew, thank you very much from the bottom of my heart for your wisdom and guidance.
Thanks to you, I have a much better idea of what I need to do in school in order to make the perfect resume for my dream job/career.
Love to hear this!!!
Andy is ALWAYS dropping knowledge !!! May God bless you my friend!
Thanks Nickson!!
Thank you!! I am so grateful for you and your energy in helping the world succeed. Much love 💘
Thaaaank You!!! i have been trying to write a resume for a couple of weeks now... i have seen and have read so many different suggestions that i have over loaded my brain into thinking everyone i write is all wrong!! To me, you brought a resume back to the reality and reason it was intended to be used for. You nailed everything negative that i have been thinking about as far as the nonsense info.... and now i may actually be able to take a deep breath and write this resume with feeling the stress of feeling like I'm try to write a best selling novel. Thanks Again!!
You are soooooo welcome Michelle!!!
I literally can not make this up.
A few days ago I watched this video and professor Heather Austin's video on resume tips. Today I decided to finally apply what I learned and submitted an application at 12:06 pm and received a phone call for an interview at 12:17 pm. My husband and I are so shocked! Neither of us has EVER received a call back that fast. Thank you sooo much Andrew :)
Wonderful to hear this Mari'yah and big congrats on getting some traction! Best of luck in the process. Hopefully my interviewing videos will help!
Andrew LaCivita yes hopefully 😅 I watched it a few hours ago
I think you're awesome!! I feel I'm steady going into a deep depression regarding employment. So many opinions about resume writing that contradict each other. I spend hours completing profiles, sending resumes, and 5 min after the conformation, it's followed by a declination e-mail. It's very depressing.
Stick with me Dexter to get undepressed!
I feel your pain. I made myself physically ill applying for hundreds of jobs after so many years, with no response. I am getting some responses from employers now but still unsuccessful. Now I have discovered Andy I hope this will change.
Good Video! It focusses on contributions and that is what is important for a resume. Especially say what your company does, not many people are telling job applicants that. This is what I tell my consultants. Spot on. I gave you a thumbs up!
Thank you!
Andrew LaCivita, I am a new follower, I love the live interview class you created, so wonderful. I’m a full time contractor and I’m looking for a direct hiring opportunity, need to update my resume and post it! Thank you for your positive passionate thought/guidance! I will keep following your class.
Wonderful to hear Qi!!!
Hi there. I used this template about a month and half ago. I landed the job. thank you
Fantastic!!!
Thank you for the CV template, most appreciated Andrew!
You’re so welcome Stacey!!
You are incredible! I was skeptical when I watching this first but once I downloaded the template and started working on this it makes an incredible amount of sense!! THANK YOU SO MUCH I am trying this out next week!!
Andrew, so glad you checked out the detail. Good luck with the new format!
Your videos helped me more in 2 videos than 3 years of computer class in high school did 😂. Scrapped the old resume and fallowed your guidelines and I must say. Wow I’m impressed now
Chad the man, love to hear it bro. Good luck with it!!
Hey there Andrew! Thanks a lot for the helpful tips. One of the jobs I'd come across requires a cover letter and thus I stumbled upon the cover letter video which was extremely helpful. To make my current resume even more enticing, I decided to watch this video and it most certainly turned out to be great. I'm transitioning from the general accounting field to investment. I've been in the field of accounting for about 5 years and I guess it seems bland and boring. To spruce up my career, I decided to take the leap. 😆 Wish me luck.. 😁
EniGmA I am sending you good vibes for sure. Lots of luck!
thank you for your video, it's very helpful
Nhem, your so welcome. Was there anything in particular that was helpful?
you are*
Thanks Andrew for the very instructive pits on constructing an eye catching Resume. I am happy I landed on and watched this video. I believe that following your tips and other guides and aids you offer will transform my job prospects and opportunities. Am so excited! Let me start with formatting my Cv. I have already downloaded it from the link you referred to.
Go get em Stella!!!!
Dear Andrew LaCivita: How can we thankful for such a wonderful contribution, yet your tremendous energy is producing excllent informations for whom all of us searching every now and then, it shows your passionate nature towards the prosperity of Humanity which is beyond description. I'm from Pakistan and really grateful from the core of my Heart!

Massively helpful - best template I have seen to date. Now to try it out!!
Mike. Thanks a mil. If you love the template you gotta come to my free, live resume class. It’s a one time event on the 9th. www.milewalkacademy.com/p/andrew-lacivita-resume-writing-live-masterclass
Hello, I just found your video series and it's mind-blowing! I would like to ask, where do I put I am fluent in other languages in this Resume or the level of computer skills (eg MSOffice)? So many resume templates include that.
Your tutorials are very professional , well organized, concise, you provide a great learning experience ~Thanks!
You're so welcome Bruce!
This was such a great help. Thank you.
Nicely detailed video on how to craft the ultimate resume. I've already handed in mine though I did follow close to what you are describing here. You've said you've seen a massive amount of resumes, can we (if its not already available) look forward to a video of you showing or talking about some of the best or favorite resumes you've gone over?
Star, thanks for the kind words. I do have wonderful samples but those are reserved for people who enroll in my job search boot camp!
Liked and subscribed. Those are some solid tips that will help a lot, thank you for that!
A little question, if you have the time to answer:
If I'm career-pivoting, I should highlight my previous career achievements or my recent self-taught skills (projects and not very solid portfolio)?
Hey Carlos. If you’re changing careers, you’ll need to highlight the transferable capabilities or skills you’ve previously gained. I would suggest checking out my career changer playlist for more help!!
@@andylacivita Thank you for the feedback! I'll check that playlist for sure.
Thank you, Mr. LaCivita for the excellent wisdom for the look behind the scenes. As a professional with multiple backgrounds, I appreciate your help with my job search and resume writing.
Sarah! You are so welcome. Thank you for watching the video and thanks too for the nice words. I truly hope I can help. Check out my blog for my great, FREE insight! (www.andrewlacivita.com)
Im jobless for 3 months... But after i followed your template i got a job from a reputable Oil & Gas company in Dubai.. Thank you very much!!
Out. Stand. Ing. :)
Andrew, where is the template to download? I cannot find it.
Thank you!
Donna
If one is worried about "ageism," can one omit dates?
Good stuff, back in the market after a restructure and my resume needed polishing up. This presentation gave me a great launch point!
Will Williamson glad I could be of help Will. Lots of luck with your search and make sure to check out the milewalk academy and my blog. Loads more free stuff there!
Thank you Andrew! Very Good advice. All the best to you!
Thank you sooooo much!
Andy - any chance this template is available for download? I see I am three years late but am extremely interested in following through. Your videos are fantastic - thank you!
Carrie. That template is most certainly still available. Click the link in the description and fill it in and we send you an email.
Hi Andrew,
I'm student of professional Qualification ACCA with 9 papers completed out of 14.
How I represent this on my resume ?
Usman Ayyaz Hey Usman, that's fantastic that you are moving through that accreditation. I might add that in the educational section or create an additional section call accounting accreditations. You can include you've completed the 9 with 5 remaining. If you think it's helpful to include the names of the stages, out those in. Just be careful you don't make the resume too long. But, I love that you're including that. It's important to note!
Andrew's guidelines for investment to the people and corporate world at the same time are outstanding!
On the one hand it helps us job seekers to save our time and energy while not wasting motivation and morality.
And on the other hand, employers will get what they really want.
Andy, you are the best!
With gracious and respect.
Thank you so much for those kind words!
I want thank you for all of your advice. I is very helpful & will keep you posted. Your amazing!
You're welcome!
where is the template to download?
Everyone has such conflicting advice... guess I'll follow my gut. Thanks
Digest it, and do what you feel is right.
Just curious. Is your gut hired yet?
@@Beelzebububble Hhahhaha holy shit, even I felt that
Thanking you in Advance! I have a great feeling! Man I am glad I didn't just go at this thing the old way I used to years ago.
Thank you Andy, I TOTALLY revised my resume today; it looks great!
Great to hear Judy!
Hi Andrew, I got few questions;
1) Should I send the resume as a word document or as a pdf.?
2) I'm an entry level job seeker, with only part time work experience which are not directly related to my field. Do you still think I should put employment info before education?
Please let me know. Thanks!
I'm assuming you mean with an employer. If that's the case, you provide them either version. Should be okay.
pdf
Earth+ I am also wondering if I should put my education before my work experience. I do not have a lot of work experience.
You can put your education at the top if you are a recent college graduate. If you've been working a little bit, put the education below the work experience. I'm guessing your resume will only be 1 page, so it should be okay.
My brother @Andrew,
I am Fidel from Mozambique, Africa. Weeks ago I tested your theories about Resumé writing. To my suprise, I have a job enterview next week (tuesday) with a Italian company.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and impacting the world.
If you come to MOZAMBIQUE, we will drink a beer (Manica) with roasted calamaris. :)
Obrigado
You’re so welcome!!
Hello, Andrew, I’m new to your channel. The information and tips have been helping me to be more confident writing my resume. Thank you.
+Jason Poe you’re so welcome Jason!
Thank you for making this video- so informative!
You're welcome Celia!
Thanks a million, Andy! Appreciate your videos much! I thank God for you!
You’re so welcome Ruth!!
It works, did what u said n got the job the same day
Yesssssss 🙌 love it! Congrats! 🎉🍾🎊🎈
Thank you! Sharing your channel with everyone I know
Wow. Thank you very much, I appreciate your help 🙏🏻
You’re welcome Claudia!
THANK YOU! Finally an advice I can relate to - and will gladly use. Furthermore - 1 CV makes sense and really should be enough as there is only one you, with the experience you had. I find it really draining to adapt CV to each and every job, and create totally new cover letter for each too. Why haven't we arrived yet to a new set up where cover letters are not needed anymore - and CV (i.e. single document) does the talk? How come we are in 21st century - and have to negotiate so many various hoops to apply for jobs? Just apply, nevermind get.
All while from collective experience - my own and my friends - quite often job offer comes from the first contact, mental 'scan', the energy, the fact that employer/recruiter felt a connection with you, liked you for any or for no reason - despite the fact that you actually lacked some skill or knowledge, or experience. Some attribute such luck to - well - luck; some - to Attraction Law they practice, some to coincidence - but it does happen.
Alas to get that chance of deserved recognition or luck one has to be chosen for an interview first.
I am really thriled to have found your videos and the Academy - may save £250 for personalised CV and cover letter service someone offered me recently...
YOU'RE WELCOME and you're dead right!!! Thanks too for the nice remarks about the videos. By the way, I'm not sure if you subscribe to my tips for work and life blog, but there are loads of additional FREE resources there too. Just go to www.andrewlacivita.com and you can sign up there. Next month, I'll be doing an in depth webinar on resume writing and if you're on the list, you'll be notified!!!! And don't ever pay to have someone do YOUR resume. You'll spend a ton of time explaining yourself to them, won't like what they draft, and have to spend additional time rewriting a significant amount of it. No one knows you as well as you. Once you figure out the format and structure, it's much easier for you to write your own!!!
Missed your webinar :(, had to travel to attend to help out my family. Are you planning to post a recording here by any chance?
Hey there! Sorry you missed, but great news. I just added three more live sessions. Check the new dates here. There are a couple next week and one the following week. Hope you can make one!! www.milewalkacademy.com/p/webcast-3-keys-to-ace-any-job-interview-registration
Your great! Thank you for your very helpful posting .
Thanks so much for the nice words. You're welcome!
Fantastic tips! Thank you for demystifying the process with so many simple easy steps and explaining the reasons behind the why not just the what.

You're welcome!
Hello thanks for your help and your great job with us in general
I have good cv according to my country but i think it need professional summary and skills
Add the summary and you skills for sure.
10 out of 10 times you should care more about yourself than your company as an employee. But the resume advise about listing the company first is solid.
Thanks for the much needed information ❤
You are so welcome!
Thank you for your advice Andrew. I had already sensed some of the things you point out in the video, others are new to me.
Now, let me ask two questions:
1) What if you have worked for small organizations but would like to enter a large one?
2) How to tune your cv when you have experience in one field (for me marketing communication) but would like to change sector (product marketing or trade marketing), and you have studied in order to get the competences needed for that?
Hi Marta! On your first point, you can make some of your items in your Career Profile and Career Highlights section related to areas a larger company might find attractive. For example, if you've worked for smaller organizations, have you designed and implemented processes and procedures your company used? Are you organized and so forth? These are just a few examples, but I would review the job descriptions for the larger organizations and simply pull forward some of the alignments. On your second question, check the answer I left Maryann Hack (right above yours) as a start. I would also highlight the CAPABILITIES required for product or trade marketing. Those transferrable skills you gained in MarComm that would also apply. Make your career profile and highlights sections show those capabilities. Lastly, I would mention that in your cover letter as well!!!
Thank you! I'll do that (sending cvs is a learning process! ;-) )
thanks for the valuable tips...
You're so welcome!!
thank you so much for this!
You’re so welcome!!
Very informative video! Thank you very much,
Thank you your great
Thank you Andrew!
You're welcome!
Thanks you a lot))) wonderful video) I got hiring in one week with your advices)
Great to hear Gulnara! I'm so happy for you and glad my material helped!!
Fantastic video, Andrew! They clearly take time to prepare, record and post - thank you. If you don't mind, I do have a follow-up question - is it critical to include the year of graduation in the education section?
Thanks
Hi Andrew;
I am writing from Mozambique, Africa. Thank you for the great work you are doing. Keep up. May you please give an example of a career profile from education context?
While the template alone was great, the explanations in this video helped me raise it to the next level.
Great to hear!
I've been watching your videos all day long!. I've learned so much :). I am building my resume. I downloaded your tips and I have a quick question. Should I do a "Career Profile" and in a separate paragraph "Career Highlights" right after?
Flo!!! Wonderful. Here's some even better news. Tomorrow at Noon ET, I have a free live session on how exactly to write the career profile. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/gMYXgKLQZRc/видео.html. If you miss it, you can use that link for the replay too!
I've been watching your videos recently. I hope I can make it using your tips
You can do it!
THANK YOU!
You're welcome Sherry! Glad you liked it!!
Thanks for the advice! I have been watching some of your videos and find the helpful so I subscribed to your channel. One thing I noticed is that where I am from (Mexico) most interviews and screening processes are either completely informal or automated. By teelling you this I want to know your opinion on how important is to have a great recommendation/ contact to get an interview for an entry level position vs having a good resume/cover letter
Iñigo Portilla that is a fantastic question. I think it's important for you to adjust to the culture you're in. I think you can still have very professional looking cover letters and recommendations but also keep them casual in a sense. I would definitely defer to your knowledge of your culture and country.
HI Andrew! First of all thank you for posting such wonderful videos. All of them are great.
I am just curious to know if the template of the resume (elegant looking graphics rich resume templates available online) can possibly add more weight to the resume (compared to a simple looking resume template, but having the same content).
Thank you very much for such great content! I have a question, can I mention a list of (automation) tools and software in the core competencies section? If no, where would you recommend to place it, as I don’t want to write them at job duties descriptions because then I need to add verbs to them which will take space, and again mostly I want to mention them for ATS.
