Work Resume

"A work resume job description is a section of a resume that lists a job applicant's accomplishments, responsibilities, and projects for each job title. It's usually presented as a list of three to five bullet points in the work history section of the resume.
  • Be specific
    Use numbers and action verbs to describe your role and responsibilities. Include as many measurable results as possible, such as statistics, to show that you're objective in your self-assessment.
  • Tailor your resume
    Check the job listing for the position and match skills and keywords from it. Incorporating keywords emphasizes the specific qualifications and expectations required for the role.
  • Be consistent
    Use the same format throughout your resume. For example, you can write employment dates in the standard format of mm/yyyy, even if you don't need to provide exact dates.
    • Job title
    • Company name
    • Location
    • Dates of employment
    • Job responsibilities
    • Soft skills and hard skills
    • Measurable achievements and awards
    • Specific numbers that indicate how you helped the company."

Why Work with Women and Girls?

 " As women, we have been taught to always compete with each other and compare ourselves on the basis of the way we look and act. Working with each other closely kills that way of thinking, empowers us and helps us create together in an environment that we feel safe in." Therefore, working with women and girls not helps me to empower them to feel good about themselves, but to heal themselves from trauma and other experiences that they may encountered. Organizations such as Esther Productions, Inc and the African American Women's Resource Center allowed me to work with a diverse set of women and girls from different backgrounds and sexual orientation beliefs.  In 2004, I began to work with Esther Productions, Inc and from 2017 - 2018, I provided services for the African American Women's Resource Center.  Esther Productions, Inc. is dedicated to using a variety of vehicles—traditional and nontraditional—to develop communities throughout the United States and Europ...

Professionalism

“Professionalism is essential for success in the workplace, incorporating dedication, integrity, and responsibility. It involves how you present yourself, your attitude, and communication skills. Professionalism can lead to a positive first impression, strong relationships, and a good reputation.” Gray 1 - 2. Digital art created on canvas. 2022. Afrika Abney “Gray displays a strong sense of individualism, independence, and self-motivation.Gray is a neutral color that is a mix of black and white, and is also known as gray. Gray color also conveys professionalism, calmness, and sophistication, so it's an excellent choice! It is achromatic, meaning it has no hue or chroma and technically has no color, so it doesn't appear on the color wheel. Gray's neutrality makes it versatile and allows it to be combined with other colors. For example, it can be paired with pale colors for a calm palette, or with warm, dark colors like burnt orange for a more energetic feel.” I created this...

Peacock

“The female peacock, also known as a peahen, can also represent inner beauty and self-love. Beauty: Peacocks' iridescent feathers can symbolize external beauty and capture attention. However, peacocks can also remind us that true beauty comes from within, and that nurturing our souls can enhance our outer appearance. Self-love: Peacocks can represent the importance of self-love and acceptance.” “Important qualities in the workplace include self-expression, optimism, individuality, personal reflection, being observant, and passionate. Self-expression can foster inclusivity and empowerment. Optimism involves expecting positive outcomes and growth. Individuality means bringing your whole self to work or fostering an individualist culture. Self-reflection aids personal and professional growth. Being observant helps notice details others may miss. Passion in the workplace involves finding meaning and approaching work with focus.” Dynamic and passionate individual with a strong focus on...
