In an increasingly competitive job market, standing out in your resume is vital. And as the first point of contact for a recruiter or employer, some job-seekers embed a tag line before their professional summary to make an impression.
The Australian job market is getting more and more competitive, leaving unemployed job seekers struggling to get a foothold in even entry-level positions.
There are countless resources and templates out there regarding how to write, frame, and style your resume / CV – but the same can hardly be said for covering letters. While a vital part of the job-seeking process, it can be largely overlooked due to its ‘optional’ nature at times, depending on certain roles.
Securing yourself a board position as an experienced director or executive requires a similar skillset to school leavers and university graduates. In this situation however, you’re able to leave your naivety in your youth and apply years of experience to your benefit.
Before you begin your search, ask yourself the questions you would face in a board interview.
Your search for a board seat will take a lot of time, so it’s best to establish your elevator pitch at the beginning. Opportunities are everywhere if you pay attention, because you might literally find yourself in an elevator with someone who needs a board member.
If you’d like to know how eligible you are to sit on a board, schedule a call with one of our Executive Agents today.
