Creating a captivating resume that sparkles bright enough to catch an employer's attention is an art on its own terms.
With the ramp up pressure kids experience at school and the need to sign up to too many extracurricular activities, it’s no surprise how the number of teens employed have been declining over the past decades.
There are many benefits (and risks) of adolescent employment. The decision to allow your teen to have an after school job should be a well thought-out family decision based on how well they can manage responsibilities, time management and money.
But if your teen is ready to take the plunge the first thing they need to figure out is how to build a resume that stands out even if they don’t have any work experience.
But where to start? How do can you create a snapshot of your ambitions, show your strengths and interests and captive an employers attention?

My four-year old would love this! What a fantastic family event. We don't have any fall activities planned, and I just started working again...but this would be perfect for us!
ReplyDeleteHi Liza! I was just looking at this event last week. Who doesn't love a nice fall festival - especially with such a great music line-up and located at Callaway Gardens! It's always hard to get out there since it seems far from Atlanta, but this would be the perfect occasion. Would love to go! Thanks for offering this fun giveaway. :)
ReplyDeleteI have never been to Callaway and would love to go. Times have been hard for my family. I have heard of all the wonderful things offered there and I still have not be able to go. I would be a great way for me to spend some time with my husband as our anny. is coming up in Oct. Thanks for letting me know about this.
ReplyDeleteHey Everyone - Callaway isn't so far from Atlanta - just 70 miles from Downtown and about 90 minutes from the norther suburbs.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to go because I really want to see my favorite band, Parachute, there. =)
ReplyDeleteHi Liza...
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect combination: great weather, beautiful venue, beautiful music and good food. I'd so love to be a part of this festival this year. Not to mention that I've been a loyal, long-time fan of Shawn Colvin (since 1989!!!) and would love any opportunity to see her locally. It's been forever since I've been to Callaway Gardens, so I'm well overdue for a visit! I hope I win some passes!
Love the fall and love Callaway Gardens. Fall is my favorite time of year because the humidity dies down and we get to enjoy the cooler weather. Thanks for a great contest, my husband and I would really enjoy the drive and love the bands that are playing!
ReplyDeleteI would love to go to Callaway Gardens because I have never been and it would be an awesome time to spend with my daughter. Callaway Gardens is definitely on my "bucketlist"!!
ReplyDeleteMy fiance and I would love to win tickets! We're always looking for fun new date-night ideas and this one sounds like an ideal way to spend our 1 year engagement anniversary! Amazing giveaway Liza!

ReplyDeleteI would love to go so I can meet the beautiful Claire Robinson in the picture above. She’s so dreamy.
ReplyDeleteThis would be an amazing weekend! I had a baby in January, and our summer beach plans were canceled because I had to have brain surgery for a chiari malformation:( This would be an amazing way to start a new season!
ReplyDeleteI want to go to the Harvest Moon Festival because the Gin Blossoms' Found Out About You reminds me of the breakup I had with my girlfriend in the 5th grade. It was a painful time, but I would love to reminisce.
