How To Write A Resume For Career Change

Jessie Said:

How to Resume after Termination..Pls advice ?

We Answered:

Your post is a bit difficult to follow. If I understand you correctly, you lied to get the job and it was found out 3 years later. At that point you were fired for the lie. You admitted in your post that you lied to get the job. It is odd that the lie wasn't found out for 3 years. They may have checked your background for a promotion or as a prelude for entering a secure job site or government work. Companies don't like to have employees around they feel that they cannot trust. You may contact your former company and see if they can minimize the damage if your work was satisfactory. Otherwise you may want to be up front with any potential employers and express remorse for your behavior. Someone may give you an opportunity. I would make sure that anything you put down on an application or resume was completely truthful in the future.

How does my resume look so far? wat else do i need or missing?

We Answered:

If you have a computer with Word on it, there are resume templates available in the programs start menu. They basically format the resume for you and tell you what you need to put where - they even have different formats for all levels of people looking for employment.

To access, open up word and click on the Office button at the very top left of your screen. Click "new" (the very first thing on the drop-down menu). A dialog box will appear with a list of templates on the left side. Scroll down and click on the listing for resumes and it will give you several types to choose from. Download the one you like best and work from there!

How do I change careers?

We Answered:

It has been very rough out there with the economy, I came from the Mortgage Industry and its almost impossible to find a job in NY where I am. There is Craigs list, career builders,monster, and others...you can just research it online and see what others come up. Just keep looking,some may think we are over qualified and others may think we want more money.I have ran into the same problem..there are also support groups that help people,especially older mature people who have been in the same field and lost their jobs and can't seem to get another.Sometimes,you may look into training for a total other field like medical, for example medical coding, or so much more. I say don't give up,I took a work at home job at www.myhomebusinesspays.com/kmercurio and it has helped me and although I want the 9-5 thing,this is helping me help others either work at home or get health insurance that is desperately needed out there. Good Luck and just keep doing what your doing, or get involved in working from home for a legitimate company like I am, while waiting for another job or maybe train in something else. Best Of Luck

Where's the line between your faith/morals and your acting career?

We Answered:

At 13, you probably aren't going to be asked to do anything too terribly risky. Where you draw that line, of course, is up to you - I make very different decisions now that I would have when I was 13.

I'm a Christian, too, but I can't think of anything I wouldn't do if the script required it, short of intercourse and possibly some other sexual situations. The question for me, when dealing with objectionable content, is what purpose is served by it being there. More often than not, iffy content in a play has a point - it illustrates a hardship in a character's life, or says something about the world or society where the play is taking place. If there is a valid, artistic reason for whatever content there is, then I'm fine with it. If, however, things are there to shock pointlessly, or because the playwright or director wanted to see how far they could push things, then I would have to back out of the project.

There will never be a time you don't get to see a script before you sign on to a project - if there is, and they won't give you a script when you request one, then that's a warning sign.

When you find material you aren't sure about, it's okay to talk about it with the director - some things, especially physical things, don't really have to be there, or can be altered if it won't hurt the play. This is probably easier on the stage than in film, but there you go.
You'll want to get involved in your school's theatre department and local plays - act and learn as much as possible, and when you're older and more experienced, get an agent.
