Chances are, that new boss in the office could be
gone…before you know it. A recent survey by the
Institute of Executive Development and Alexcel Group
found that after two years, nearly one-third of
senior-level executives who joined new companies do not
perform well enough to keep their jobs. This is the same
fate for 20 percent of bosses who are promoted from
within.

Every
day
you walk in the office, it is becoming increasingly
clear that you need to start looking for another job.
Maybe a layoff is imminent, or maybe you are realizing
that your current company and job are just not the right
fit for you.
A
former Journalism professor of mine once said that you
should never make the reader work for information when
writing an article. That basic rule extends to resumes
as well. A resume should provide potential employers
with a brief description of who you are, what you've
done, and why you are the right person for the job.
Considering that employers weed through anywhere from 30
-- 300 resumes for a single job opening, simplicity is
the key to assuring that your resume will not end up in
the reject pile.
