Promote Yourself

It looks like my son will not be going back to Hawaii. That’s good since I love having him home. It’s bad since there aren’t many jobs around here. In fact, the job market is close to dead.
Jesse is a talented stone mason and is pretty good with block and brick, too. The housing market is stagnant, though, and we seem to have more builders than homes that need built. I’m helping Jesse to put together a resume with pictures of the home he built. Hopefully, that will make him more desirable to general contractors.
I know how to write a resume and cover letter but I need a course on marketing resumes and promoting one’s self. That would be helpful right now. Of course, if I was good at that I’d be submitting my own resume around. For now, I’m just staying hopeful that Jesse finds a good job that lets him stay close to home, at least for a little while.
