When we’re looking for a career transition, most of us go straight to our resumes. We update our experience and polish it to better reflect what we’re looking for.

But we don’t often stop to ask ourselves if we’re truly clear about what it is we want.

In times of transition, your resume is a very important marketing tool that you have at your disposal. But if you’re looking for real change, simple updates might not be helping you find the best transition that suits your unique skillset.

The first step on the road to change is finding clarity.

Professional resume writing services can help connect the dots between who you are and what value you can offer an organization, but in order to do that, YOU MUST BE CLEAR ON WHAT YOU WANT AND WHERE YOU’RE HEADED.

Today, Blake welcomes Meg Applegate, a certified resume writer and personal branding strategist who connects high-achieving women to career advancement. Recently named one of Jobscan's Top Experts to Follow on LinkedIn in 2022, her work is also featured in ForbesWomen, Fairygodboss, and Expert Resumes & LinkedIn Profiles for Managers and Executives.

In this episode, you’ll learn why it’s important to explore your options and discover what makes you valuable to an organization— and most importantly, how to market your story to align you with the right kind of work. You’ll learn why career transitions are actually beneficial pathways to discovering your unique strengths and why asking for help and guidance makes the path less rocky and a lot more enjoyable than doing it alone.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why career pivots and transitions should be normalized (6:30)
  • How to think about your brand and create a story around it (10:32)
  • What happens when you change jobs without really knowing what you want (19:03)
  • Why what you can do isn’t always what you can do best (26:13)
  • The relief you get by asking for help, especially when it's from people who can understand your unique perspective (35:56)

Favorite Quotes:

  1. “Having pivots and having transitions, every single person has them. So it's interesting that it feels taboo because everyone has some sort of pivot.” —Meg
  2. “The resume is a marketing tool. And if you don't know where you're going, then you don't know how to market yourself best. So it's really important that you have clarity.” —Meg
  3. “The resume writing process is a really good preparation process for the job search because you're really understanding and distilling down your value.” —Meg
  4. “When we don't understand who we are, we're living a muted life. We see signs and symptoms that we're not happy, we see all these things happening. We try to solve them. But sometimes it takes that outside perspective or that outside opportunity to really shift things. And it is life-changing.” —Blake
