Why your resume isn't the make-or-break factor in landing a job, common mistakes people make with resumes, why relationships matter more than the perfect resume, how to show growth and numbers on your resume even if you're not in sales, creative ways nurses and clinical specialists can showcase their skills, how to avoid overloading your resume with too much information, why clarity and simplicity beat long resumes, what sales managers are actually looking for when scanning resumes, the importance of emotional intelligence for younger candidates, and how building relationships beats obsessing over your resume

Key Takeaways:

  • It's not just about the resume. You need to focus on relationship building to stand out.

  • Numbers and percentages showing growth are critical, even if you’re not coming from a sales background.

  • You don't need a flashy or overly detailed resume. Clarity and relevance win every time.

  • Nurses, PTs, and clinical backgrounds can show value by highlighting efficiency, patient outcomes, or communication skills.

  • Keep each role on your resume to 2-4 strong points max. Don’t overload it with every task you ever did.

  • For clinical specialist roles, patient-facing skills matter more than showing sales numbers.

  • Stop blaming your resume. If you were truly that strong of a candidate, you'd be moving forward regardless.
