For more than a decade CorDell has been helping executives identify their strengths and development needs, create great resumes and other personal branding materials, develop and execute successful job search strategies, prepare for and succeed in interviews, and successfully negotiate employment offers and promotions.
- RESUMES, COVER LETTERS, ONLINE PROFILES, ETC. Most resume and cover letter writing services simply “wordsmith” what you have already included on your resume. While this will result in a well written document, it may not communicate the information necessary to attract a hiring manager’s attention. In some cases it may just make you look like everyone else. CorDell provides personally crafted resumes and cover letters focused on what makes you different from your peers. Leveraging his experience, gained over the past decade conducting more than 150 executive searches and leadership assessments, he begins by interviewing you to understand your goals and to benchmark your capabilities. With this information he creates personal branding materials that effectively position you against your competition in a way that helps potential hiring managers quantify the business value of employing you.
- INTERVIEW PREPARATION Interviewing, like any other skill, requires practice to be good, which is why so many people fail to get the career opportunities they want. Understanding how to communicate your value add, along with repetition and research, are the best way to ensure you make a great impression on hiring managers and recruiters. CorDell has prepped thousands of executives for interviews. Knowing what to say is only half the battle. Knowing how to say it is the other half.
- OFFER NEGOTIATIONS Many people do not realize it, but negotiating is a skill just like interviewing. Like any other skill it requires practice to be good, which is why so many people dislike the offer negotiation process. Without the appropriate preparation it can leave you feeling battered and bruised. CorDell has helped hundreds of executives successfully negotiate employment offers. He can help you identify the full-range of issues that are negotiable during the offer process, assist you in quantifying the value of each aspect of your offer and ensure you make appropriate trade-offs, understand typical compensation packages, and identify and use appropriate points of leverage.
- JOB SEARCH COACHING Job searches are getting longer and longer, some research suggests the average executive job search 11 months. If you want to shorten your job search just focus on finding organizations facing problems you have already overcome. CorDell can help you here. Through an in-depth assessment of your strengths and weaknesses he can help you identify your “selling points”, what differentiates you from other candidates, and most importantly who that matters to. He can help you craft your resume, cover letter, and even your interview answers to ensure you present all the right information at the right point in the process. Finally, when it comes time, he can arm you with the data and skills necessary to negotiate an offer that is inline with the value you can generate. And, during the entire process, he will help you keep the right frame of mind and ensure you remain focused.
