Resume Psychology: Matthew Kosinski

Stop Calling Yourself an ‘Entrepreneur’ – and Other Resume Keyword Tips From a ‘Resume Psychologist’

"Stop-calling-yourself-an-entrepreneur-and-other-resume-keyword-tips-from-a-resume-psychologist/" is a rather long URL so here is that link.

Technically, this is my first feature article - ever.

This is based on my 3rd book ResumeKeywords Decoded & Demystified in paperback and eBook on Amazon.Com

The book wrote it self as it was based on my first online training class by the same name. You can take the class here; it is free. There is a podcast and video course. The same content on each. The video course is 30 minutes divided into 2 to 3 minute segments. The podcast is me talking...

The editor of Recruiter.Com, Matthew Kosinski did the interview. Matthew asks questions no one else has. It forced me to think and hopefully the answers are helpful. People need to use keywords on the resume to tell a better story and to be more competitive. My goal is to teach everyone how to find their's with confidence.

To your best resume yet,
