Regardless of how good the job market is, landing a top job requires that you stand out from the other applicants. And, I\u2019ll let you in on a little secret: using the latest resume template, buzz words, or a laundry list of skills isn\u2019t going to do it.<\/p>\n
What you need is a career story.<\/strong>\u00a0People love stories. When you tell a meaningful story about your journey, it can build trust and empathy before entering a room. Telling your career story can be a compelling way to let a future interviewer in on what you do best, how you got to where you are and, most importantly, what makes you uniquely perfect for the job.<\/p>\n Bottom line: stories resonate with people on a fundamental level, and letting someone in on your story can help you get your foot in the door to have more conversations.<\/p>\n
