In what kind of law are you looking for a job? Maybe your resume just needs a little sprucing.
Yes. Resumes are vey important...I had ZERO experience in finance and somehow I got in and was complimented on my resume which is interesting cuz I just went thru a resume workshop and they basical...
My resume has the last 3 firms I've worked for and about 5 bullet points under each stating what I did there.
Stretch it out, then. Is that the only job you've had? If not, try to pull your job duties that had anything to do with office work from your other jobs and put them in. Don't list waitressing jobs...
Nope.... my last job title was legal secretary....nothing special! My jobs before that were in retail.... Staples for a year and a half
Don't generalize. Be specific. List what "General Office Responsibilities" entails and don't use single words or short terms like "Research" or "Education law", use sentences, like "Legal research through internet mediums and law textbooks" and make "Education Law" it's own heading, then list duties specific to that kind of law underneath it. Don't forget to put your typing speed and that you can use a dictaphone, if you can't, learn.
can i ez message you my resume?... the dictaphone.... is that the tape recorder thing?
Sure. Or you can e-mail it to me in word at my office: diana@kingspry.com
