How to Tell a Powerful Story in Your Resume With a Winning Executive Summary

Executive summaries – everyone knows their resume needs one, yet few know how to write one.

That’s because most professionals have a pretty good idea about how to write about their experiences, but have never been told exactly what belongs in an executive summary and how to write it. 

During this class, we will discuss the secret to creating an executive summary that works as a sales pitch and presents your personal brand at a glance. 

We will examine what it should cover, how to customize it for each role, and how it turns your resume from a simple list into a career story.
