The Future of BP's American Employees

As many in the UK demand President Obama cease his promises of "kicking ass" in regards to BP and its catastrophic environmental disaster and threaten to end, as one reporter calls, "the British love-in with Barack Obama", there are around 23,000 Americans who are employed by the British oil giant and are wondering how much longer they will have a job.  Because the White House announced this week the possibility of suspending or withholding its next dividend payment next month, concerns are growing that BP"s shares will take a major nosedive, even as stocks rose in mid-June.

3 Steps to Make Your Online Resume A Winner

* Voted "Best Answer" in LinkedIn Discussion: Is Applying for Jobs Online a Waste of Time?

I agree with the overwhelming response of careerists to spend time networking and doing company research as a job seeker, instead of posting resumes. The facts are there: online job applications account fro 2-5% of job offers.

That said, if you find a suitable company through your networking and research, chances are they are going to ask you to apply online, even if you claim an inside contact. So you"re stuck being just one more needle in the hiring person"s haystack. Here are some quick tips to make your online resume stand out from the rest of the chaff:

*Make sure it"s clear your objective lines up with the job requisition, and within the first few lines of your resume. With online applications, there"s a lot of "misfire" candidates due to the ease and safety of the application process. You want to show respect for the hiring manager and their organization by helping them see you"re on target.

*If you"re short on qualifications, be honest about where you are short and explain why the hiring person should still consider you. For example, if you don"t have a degree but have double the years experience plus professional training, make sure you state this early and clearly.

*Create an÷ ASCII or "text only" resume, especially if the online application process involves cutting and pasting your resume into a web form. This will make your resume easier to read. For more on ASCII resumes, read a quick article on what they are and why they"re essential.

In following these three guidelines, you"ll win some good will from the often overworked, blurry-eyed hiring manager who"s tired of sifting through poorly formatted, unfocused, and irrelevant resumes.

Be the breath of fresh air amongst all that online resume pollution and you can beat the odds.

Stay on the BrightSide.
