HLOOM: Struggling with That Work at Home Resume?

Free Resume Help & Tools

Yes – You Need a Resume Even When Applying for a Home Job

I've covered this several times over the years – and even with the HUGE influx of work at home opportunities, I am still hearing from potential employers that more than half of those that apply don't include a resume or have very sloppy resumes. How can this be? A resume represents you. And whether it's a brick and mortar job, or an at home job — YOUR resume is YOU. Most employers will ask for one. Most ask or want a cover letter as well, telling them why you're right for the job; why you should get an interview. I cannot stress the importance of putting in effort when it comes to creating an amazing resume.

You Don't Know How to Create a WOW Resume

Now trust me… my resume was not always pro. Oh no. As a matter of fact – the other day I was cleaning out a file cabinet in the garage and I came across a folder that had to be from pre-2000. It was my resume. So bad. It was just pathetic really. Even the resume I put together for radio was bad. And that was what my degree was in! (Granted…. they listen to your resume “tape” more than anything — but my paper portion was lame.)

Over the years — I've mastered “le resume” — yeah… mine is fancy now. I've got more experience under my belt too, which adds a lot. BUT — even if I didn't, I would still have the knowledge to create a really amazing resume. But if I didn't — what would I do? There are resume writing services out there. I have seen resume writing services run upwards of $400 though. Now… if you can burn that amount of cash on a resume — more power to you. But I certainly cannot.

On the flip side of that – you can use templates that you can find here and there online. But they are very generic. And still leave you a little in the dark. That's why I want to share HLOOM.
