I recently acquired my MBA in Business Administration to add to my degree in Marketing and Bachelor of Fine Arts. Intentionally tried to gear my work in education advertising. I've been looking for awhile now to enter the market, but I have not even got an interview. Not sure if due to a weak letter, curriculum vitae, lack of experience, economics, or in the Cleveland market, or perhaps a mixture of them all. I have no real work experience, I have only marketing practices completed in 2005 and promotion (brand ambassador) work. I need some advice on how I should get my foot in the door. I feel like I had the institutional education right to pursue an advertising / marketing career, and the right personality. I am open to suggestions, and I really need help!

No Work Experience? Do not worry! Transferable Skills on a Graduate Resume
College students and recent graduates often feel they have little or nothing to include a new graduate resume. University students in paid employment, volunteer experience or academic reserach is often seemingly unrelated to their career goals, and beyond that, the only information left to include is education. If this is your way to think - think again!
Transferable Skills
One method of approaching a college student or new graduate resume is to focus on skills transferable. These skills are applicable to different situations. The ability to communicate well, for example, is a skill that is useful in any industry or position. Other transferable skills may include the ability to work well with numbers, sales skills, or ability to solve problems by looking at the big picture. These are just some examples.
How to list transferable skills? There are a number of ways to include transferable skills in your resume, application employment, and cover letter. The following are some tips for the various sections of the resume.
The Summary or Profile
Objective statements are out and profiles are in the open with a brief introductory paragraph describing your most worthy and transferable skills and assets. Briefly list the skills transferable here and presenting them in a summary list of keywords. This is exactly as it sounds: a list of keywords. Use those that show your transferable skills.
Education
Depending on your college dorm, you probably had to write papers, complete projects, or full investigation. What were the results of these? Did you conduct a comprehensive study on a topic? Designing an engineering plan? These were published or put into use in the "world real "? Use as part of their educational experience to your advantage. It may also include a summary of the courses, which often demonstrates transferable skills that are used in the educational environment and the business world.
Employment History
Many college students have a work history related to your targeted field. If this is true for you, take heart. You can include many transferable skills in your new college or graduate curriculum. At the most basic, it is likely that gained professional skills such as dependability, teamwork, collaborating on projects, communicating with clients or customers, and more. His history of work may not be as independent as it seems at first sight.
Additional Information
Any volunteer or member can also translate well transferable skills in meaning. Just as your employment history helps you learn transferable skills, so does volunteer work. It also demonstrates the commitment of help others. If you fulfill the duties in a professional organization, this too can show transferable (and sometimes directly related) skills.
When you take the time to thoroughly review your experience, education, and other related activities were introduced to a number of transferable skills. Use these to your advantage!
Your resume, college application, job application or cover letter will be much stronger for it. Who knows - A little imagination and diligence in the preparation of a well prepared CV can only end up landing that dream job.

 Ahead of the Curve: Two Years at Harvard Business School List Price: Sale Price: $3.96 See Reviews For This Product DescriptionAs One L did for Harvard Law School, Ahead of the Curve does for Harvard Business School—providing an incisive student’s-eye view that pulls the veil away from this vaunted institution and probes the methods it uses to make its students into the elite of the business worldIn the century since its founding, Harvard Business School has become the single most influential institution in global business. Twenty percent of the CEOs of Fortune 500 companies are HBS graduates, as are many of our savviest entrepreneurs (e.g., Michael Bloomberg) and canniest felons (e.g., Jeffrey Skilling). The top investment banks and brokerage houses routinely send their brightest young stars to HBS to groom them for future power. To these people and many others, a Harvard MBA is a golden ticket to the Olympian heights of American business. In 2004, Philip Delves Broughton abandoned a post as Paris bureau chief of the London Daily Telegraph to join nine hundred other would-be tycoons on HBS’s plush campus. Over the next two years, he and his classmates would be inundated with the best—and the rest—of American business culture that HBS epitomizes. The core of the school’s curriculum is the “case”—an analysis of a real business situation from which the students must, with a professor’s guidance, tease lessons. Delves Broughton studied more than five hundred cases and recounts the most revelatory ones here. He also learns the surprising pleasures of accounting, the allure of “beta,” the ingenious chicanery of leveraging, and innumerable other hidden workings of the business world, all of which he limns with a wry clarity reminiscent of Liar’s Poker. He also exposes the less savory trappings of b-school culture, from the “booze luge” to the pandemic obsession with PowerPoint to the specter of depression that stalks too many overburdened students. With acute and often uproarious candor, he assesses the school’s success at teaching the traits it extols as most important in business—leadership, decisiveness, ethical behavior, work/life balance. Published during the one hundredth anniversary of Harvard Business School, Ahead of the Curve offers a richly detailed and revealing you-are-there account of the institution that has, for good or ill, made American business what it is today. |
