Do you love the company you work for, but feel stagnant in your current role? Are you looking to advance your career with more direct responsibilities? Crafting a resume that is specifically focused on a promotion can help you achieve that goal.
Most people believe that you only need a formal resume when applying for a new position outside of your current employer. The truth is that a resume is a key ingredient for successful internal promotions, allowing you to differentiate yourself from a pool of candidates.
First, a resume gives you the opportunity to highlight your accomplishments, focusing on achievements and the impact you have had within your current and past roles with the company. Second, a resume can help provide specific insight into the skills you have developed that will help you thrive in the new role. Last, a resume offers a platform to demonstrate your commitment to advancing the strategic priorities of the company through your individual contributions.
