The saying goes that necessity is the mother of invention. This book's mantra is that frustration is the mother of inspiration, especially for people who know they aren't getting all that they want out of their chosen career path. The Anti-Résumé Revolution is leading the shift in the way people apply for jobs, start businesses, view their futures, and create what they want in their lives by killing their resumes.
The book asks and answers the following questions:
- Are you tuning out of your life in order to get through each day?
- Are you living an authentic life?
- Do you even know the difference?
While so many people are frightened for their futures, clinging to their desk chairs for security, and bowing down to their bosses' demands, The Anti-Résumé Revolution is arising as the resource for the people who want more than a 9-5 job and ongoing fear of job security.
The people best suited for this book are the ones who know they deserve to be happy and have the job they dreamed of as a kid. The Anti-Résumé Revolution teaches how to create a personal brand online and in the face to face marketplace. Learn the most common mistakes made by job seekers and how to avoid them to get the right job, faster. Learn the #1 way to be remembered, and read inspiring stories from the people who created the life they want and are currently doing what they love.
Beyond having a strong message of hope, this book also gives concrete advice and steps on what to do to create a life you will love. The final page of the book asks the reader to consider this question: "If not today, when?" referring to the time when you will take control of your life and start making decisions that are for your own happiness.
