Have only gotten 3 interviews in 3 months please review & critique my resume

2 out of the three interviews were for immediate retail opportunities so maybe they needed more experience. Any suggestions, comment, or feedback welcome.

I like what have, the only suggestions that I can offer is for you to add another section that lists extra qualifications you have that are related to the job you are applying for. It may seem like alot of extra work because you will need to update it everytime you apply for a different job, but it's only 1 section and what is it really costing you? 5-10 min of your time? To me that seems really minor and not all that much compared to not having a job and maintaining all the free time you already have, to taking 5-10 min so that you may obtain the employment you seek. Employers like to know what you are good at and what you think you have to offer the job you are applying for, it gives them a glimpse as to whether or not you will be or are compatible by their standards. Hopefully this helps. If I can help on any othere way feel free to contact me.

The resume may not showcase details catered to the non-immediate retail opportunities. It is key for a job candidate's resume to be tailored to the desired job title and its job description/responsibilities listed in order for resume to have key words that stand out the recruiter/human resource staff to recognize that the job candidate may qualify for the open job position.

Nicole, Don't give up. There was a reported decline in hiring this last month. Redo your resume to show off what you bring with you, don't forget your cover letter and thank you notes. Also get with a do some temporary work, that really will help you get more experience and It is easier to get a job when you are already employed in some type of work. Temp work can help you get your foot in the door. Good luck. Ms, Patty

Try going in in person retail is all about customer interaction. Talk to a hiring manager only then ask if they are actually hiring then after you get a good idea of what they are looking for apply and follow up in two days in person or by phone. The first time you meet the manager is really your first interview. They will probably ask pertinent questions if they are actually hiring.
