Moms Cover Letter, Resume Questions

Dear Sequencing Moms,

I continually watch your searches on WordPress and you are searching for Resume and Cover Letter information. What I would like to know is. What are your specific questions regarding Resume and Cover Letters? Leave a comment for me on what you want answered and I’ll address it in my next Blog. Examples would be: Explaining your time away from the workplace, Regaining your confidence for the interview, Communicating your skills and abilities, Answering the tough questions regarding your responsibilities to the family while trying to maintain your job.

Be specific as you want.

When I have written my articles or blogs in the past I usually try to keep them somewhat general to answer the basic information.

If I can give a more specific answer to your question, it could possibly be of interest to another Sequencing Mom.

If you would like to speak with me in person and get personal feedback call me or you may email your question. What ever way you feel comfortable.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best of luck in your job search,

Terry

Mom Returning to Work Success Story

I usually don’t write about the clients I have coached but this time I am compelled to share this story with you. It is one of the best examples of the struggles a Sequencing Mom has to go through to get a job after staying home to raise a child.

I had been giving Returning to Work After Staying Home to Raise a Child presentations for Sequencing Moms at a local mommy coffee cafe for the past several months. The owner loved my work and had asked me to give another presentation with only a one week notice. I quickly put together a flier for her and delivered them to the cafe announcing the day and time of the presentation.

A couple of days later I recieved a phone call from a mother that had seen the flier while visiting the cafe with her 14 month old daughter. At first she was just asking me general questions about my topic for the presentation. As she talked I began to wonder just why she had called me. There seemed to be no specific direction of her questions. Finally I asked her what I could do for her. That is when she informed me she wanted to come to the presentation but with such short notice she had no way of getting someone to watch her daughter. Having a three year old daughter myself I understood the challenges you can face when raising a child especially when it comes to schedules and time management. We bagan to chat abit about how it can sometimes be difficult to find a babysitter last minute.

She finally paused for a second and asked me my rates for interview coaching. As I began to tell her how much I charge I could tell she did not have to money to afford my services. I immediately stopped going through the payment options. For some reason I felt drawn to her story and the reason she had contacted me. Those of you that have heard of the Laws Of Attraction will understand this next part.

The mother on the other end of the phone had come to me and I felt compelled to help her (after all, that is what I do). I asked her what she felt her problem with getting a job was and she proceeded to tell me her story. She was born in China and had moved to San Diego several years earlier. She went to school to get her degree and took english classes along the way. She spoke with a fairly heavy accent but I understood her quite well. She went on to tell me she felt that she had a difficult time communicating in the interview and that was one of the main reasons she could not get through an interview successfully. Not to mention she had lost her confidence since she had been out of the workforce for just over a year raising her daughter.

Hearing all of this I decided to offer her my service at a rate we could both agree to. She accepted and we set up a weekly schedule to start her interview coaching process. I got her email address and told her I would email her my interview instruction manual and workbook for her to read and start the exercises before our first session.

The first part of her homework was to work on explaining the gap in time while she was not in the workforce for her cover letter and resume. Over the next couple of days emailing back and forth we came up with the perfect cover letter and resume. We were on the road to geting her a job now. Throughout our coaching sessions we worked on her confidence by learning the techniques required to answer the interview questions that exemplify her newly aquired skills while raising her daughter as well as the knowledge based skills she already had. By the time we had our third coaching session she had four interviews lined up. Her first interview went well and she got a call back for a second interview, in the meantime she went on an interview with another company. Her first interview with that company went better than the first one. The second company called her back that very afternoon and requested that she meet the Vice President of the company, Human Resource Manager, and The Department Manager of Purchasing for a second interview. The next day we did a mock interview and practiced her answers to help her prepare for the group interview. Two days later she went on the job interview and to her utter surprise they offered her the job at the end of the interview. It paid 6000.00 more a year than the first job interview she went on and they needed her skills since they did alot of business with China. By the way she is fluent in speaking and writing chinese (if you had not already guessed).

She accepted the position and took the next two weeks as a vacation before starting her new job. I was so proud of her and how fast she had made the transition from an insecure mother with nothing to offer to a secure Employed Mother of a now 15 month old daughter.

Law Of Attraction: She contacted me to help her get through the interview. She took the step to learn and put out there what she wanted and I got to watch someone better themselves and be successful. And that my friends Makes Me Successful.

I’d like the thank her for allowing me to be a part of her growth and success.
