Jen often describes her path as the squiggly line from "then until now" and is excited to cheer you on as she helps you navigate yours.

There is no denying that Jen Warrington is obsessed with recruitment and helping others find work they will love. She describes recruiting as her way to shine and has honoured her business as allowing her to take the twists and turns of life, as perspectives that helped her help companies find epic humans, and help epic humans find opportunities that light them up and push them to be better versions of themselves!

  • Key Elements of an Effective Resume
    Sep 30 2024

    Jen Warrington is back this week on Career Fuel to discuss Resumes!

    The history and evolution of resumes, trace their origin to Leonardo da Vinci in 1482. Jen emphasizes that resumes are no longer standalone documents; they must be accompanied by a cover letter, a LinkedIn profile, and a network. Recruiters spend only 6-10 seconds reviewing resumes, so they must be clear, concise, and impactful. Key elements include a profile section, quantifiable achievements, and transferable skills. Jen not only gives you some "to do's" in this episode but also gives some "don't do's." Give this a listen if you are ready to apply for your dream job, but not quite sure where to start!
