LOCAL HELP WANTED – WEST TORONTO EDITION
How to Leave Your Dead-End Job
by Liz Sumner, M.A. CPC
This is for everyone who is sticking
with a job that no longer fits. Maybe it
was right for a while, for a certain time
and place in your life. But not anymore.
When was the last time you jumped
out of bed with excitement about what
the day would bring?
“But I love the people I work with.”
“It’s so convenient.”
“The money’s pretty decent,”
I’ve heard all the excuses. Heck,
I’ve made them. You know that job is
sucking your soul and it’s time to leave.
The only thing left to decide is how.
Above all, you want it to be your
decision. Don’t let boredom and apathy
lead to an attitude that gets you fired or
passed over. Who wants to work with
a burnout no matter how skilled he or
she is?
The No. 1 reason people stay in
bad jobs is fear of the unknown. Are
you hanging on to something that
doesn’t fit just because it’s familiar?
What if the unknown weren’t scary?
What if it were filled with joy and
delightful possibilities? Sure, there’s
that transition period where you leave
what you can do in your sleep and head
into new territory. I assure you that the
downhill slide of staying too long is far
greater than the steepness of a little
learning curve. How might you make
unknown territory more comfortable?
“Until one is committed, there is
hesitancy, the chance to draw back,
always ineffectiveness. Concerning all
acts of initiative (and creation), there is
one elementary truth the ignorance of
which kills countless ideas and splendid
plans: that the moment one definitely
commits oneself, then providence
moves too. All sorts of things occur to
help one that would never otherwise
have occurred. A whole stream of
events issues from the decision, raising
in one’s favour all manner of unforeseen
incidents and meetings and material
assistance, which no man could have
dreamed would have come his way.
“Whatever you can do or dream
you can, begin it. Boldness has genius,
power and magic in it. Begin it now”.
-J. W. von Goethe
1. Make It Known
Learn about it. Do research. Talk to
people. Do informational interviews.
Volunteer. Be a trainee. Find ways to
educate yourself. Go to school. Hire a
trainer. Shine some light on the scary
ignorance, and it’s no big deal. If you’re
drawn to it, you probably have a knack.
2. Make It Up
There are a lot of successful people
in the world who just decide that they
know what they’re doing. I’ll never
forget my friend Susan, a beautiful and
confident woman who discovered her
gift for public speaking in Toastmaster’s
and went on to become a highly paid
consultant just because she decided
she was worth listening to. I had
just finished grad school and was
trying to get my nerve up to go pitch
companies. She read a book or two,
made a presentation, and was suddenly
crossing the country getting big fees.
There’s a lot to be said for chutzpah.
3. Try It On A Small Scale
Part-time or pilot projects work
well particularly if you’re thinking of
venturing out on your own. The hours
are long when you don’t give up your day
job but if you’re pursuing your passion
you generally can find the energy.
Cater a friend’s party for the cost of the
supplies. Print some business cards on
your computer. Do some pro bono work
for a civic group for the testimonials.
Before long you’ll feel ready to go for it.
4. Dive In
This is my favorite. I get enormous
energy from leaping off metaphorical
IN PRINT AND ON-LINE
23
cliffs. Instead of screaming “NO,” try
saying “Wheee!” or “Geronimo.” I’ve
crossed the country on three occasions
with no job and no place to live. I
keep having soft, successful landings
so I keep leaping. Sometimes it takes
a geographic change to get yourself out
of a rut. Try something out there and
see if you can fly.
5. Be Prepared
So maybe you’re not a leaper. You can
plan for contingencies, save that nest
egg. Find an answer for all the what-ifs.
But be careful not to over prepare. Just
how likely are those eventualities that
you’re covering? There comes a point
when it’s time to take steps.
Remember, if you only do what you
already know how to do, your world
would get pretty stale. Growth is an
essential part of life. There comes a
time to move on. You can feel when
change is due. When that time comes
the universe makes it easy for you. The
money for graduate school appears,
child-care arrangements work out, an
article about a new company catches
your eye. Pay attention to the signals.
Then trust your judgment. If something
tells you this new opportunity is right,
it probably is.

LOCAL HELP WANTED – WEST TORONTO EDITION
Ten Resume Red Flags
Searching for a job is not always easy,
no matter what state the economy
is in. And when you’re on the hunt,
your best weapon is your resume. This
document must emphasize the best of
your experience, education and skills
and sell you to your future employer.
It’s a lot to ask, but it is possible to get
your CV into fighting shape. Don’t let
your effort go to waste by having these
glaring red flags on your resume.
1. It’s Covered in Glitter — Literally
Yes, it has been done. In an effort
to make your resume stand out, you
may find that it gets thrown out. Less
extreme attempts such as including
image files or using non-traditional
symbols or fonts should also be avoided.
While it may be a nice break for a
recruiter reading through hundreds of
Times New Roman documents, you
run the risk of the fonts or images not
loading properly. And you can bet that
busy recruiter isn’t going to contact you
for a simplified copy.
2. There Are References. Listing your
references on the resume is a definite
no-no. References should always appear
on a separate page, and should only be
produced when asked for. Also, be sure
to delete the “References: Available
Upon Request” line. It’s understood
that you will, so save some space and
your potential employer’s time.
3. It’s Written in Full Sentences. The
headhunter has likely received dozens
if not hundreds of applications — help
them out! Your resume should be short
and sweet and bulleted. You aren’t
writing a novel, you are trying to catch
a skimming employer’s eye and prove
you are worth a second look — and an
interview.
4. There Are No Numbers. One
of the worst things you can do on
a resume is be vague. Don’t just list
your accomplishments in a general
way — have the quantitative data
to back it up. If you exceeded a goal,
by how much did you exceed it? If
you created and distributed company
performance reports, how many did
you do? Adding numbers concretizes
your accomplishments and paints a
better picture of what you actually did.
Also, make sure you are answering
the “how” question. If you completed
five projects this year instead of the
expected four, how did you do it?
5. It Includes the Words “Duties”
or “Responsibilities. “When you
are writing your current or former
job description, focus on your
accomplishments, not what you had
to do. As an alternative to “duties” or
“responsibilities,” flip your tasks into
achievements. For example, instead of
being “responsible for the sales team,”
Mar. 21 – Apr. 4, 2015
consider “directed the sales team to
beat their repeat client objective by
10%” — remember that number thing!
6. It Lists an Objective. For the most
part, objectives sound insincere and,
worse, can limit your options. Let your
cover letter do the talking when it
comes to why you want that particular
job. And remember, each cover letter
and resume should be individually
tailored to a specific job posting — not
just a specific field. Taking an interest
in the specifics of the job makes you
look professional and focused and not
like you are mass-emailing anyone who
might hire you. Desperation is no more
attractive to an employer than it is to
a date.
7. It Contains Spelling or Grammatical
Errors. We all know to avoid this one.
It makes you look sloppy and negates
the part of your resume that proudly
describes you as “detail-oriented.” The
best thing you can do for a resume is
send it to a professional resume service
or a professional editor. If you are a
student, your career center likely offers
free resume counseling or at least free
information to help you fine tune your
CV before sending it out. At the very
least, have a friend look it over and
check for basic language errors — spell
check just doesn’t cut it.
8. It Lists an Unprofessional Email
Address. In a world where email is free,
and most of us have multiple addresses,
make the effort to have a professional
email address. Keep it simple — using
your name is best. Just make sure you
leave the [email protected]
for personal use. One more tip? Don’t
use your current work email unless you
are self-employed.
9. It Includes a Picture. The ONLY
time this is appropriate is if you are
applying to be a model or an actor,
and in both cases, a separate portfolio
is preferable. Including a self-portrait
could exclude you for not being
serious and may make you appear
unprofessional. Let your skills and
experience speak for you.
10. It Is Too Personal. Resumes
should demonstrate how professional
you are — that means the anecdote
about the time you met Britney Spears
is not appropriate. That being said,
let your personality come through in
your resume by including volunteer
experience or a (very) short section
about your interests.
The Bottom Line When times
are tough, getting a job is a stressful
undertaking. Don’t sell yourself short.
Instead, make sure your resume is the
best example of you as a potential
employee and before you know it, you’ll
be employed once again.
