When we present your background and experience to an employer, we want to show how your employment will benefit both the organization and the employer as an individual. We want to demonstrate how you can help improve profits, reduce costs and just make things run better. We have learned that resumes, more often than not, result in rejection rather than interviews. Because of this we seldom send a resume to a prospective employer. We have, instead, developed the Features/Accomplishments/Benefits Presentation --FAB for short-- to use in presenting your background and experience to an employer. The FAB presentation does several important things. It shows specifically what you can do for the employer - how you will benefit him or her and the organization. It details what you have accomplished in your current and previous positions. Finally, it highlights your unique features and experiences. How do you prepare a FAB presentation? Let's start by defining some terms:
After your lists of features and accomplishments have been completed, study them over. Now identify what you can do for a new employer. How you can benefit him or her? What are the most compelling reasons for a new employer to want to hire you over someone else? After you have completed your FAB presentation, go over it. Study it carefully. Have you forgotten anything? Where can you include additional quantitative measures? Numbers tell! Can a benefit be rephrased so you will look more attractive to an employer? Is there an accomplishment from early in your career that is particularly significant that should be included? And finally, when you go to your interviews, be sure to answer questions by relying on your FAB information; i.e., how you can benefit the new company.
