Patricia Erickson is a certified professional resume writer, career coach, and job search consultant with more than 12 years of experience in executive search, interview coaching and hiring. She works one-on-one with clients to focus on making great impressions, getting interviews, and finding ideal jobs. She partners with clients to craft high impact resumes that work.
Patricia founded A Vita Career Management because she knows what it is like to have an awful boss and dread going to work. She understands what it is like to suffer with insomnia on Sunday nights thinking about yet another day in a terrible job. After losing countless hours of sleep and spending years fantasizing about bludgeoning her boss with a paper weight, Patricia established A Vita Career Management – because there had to be something more!
Her philosophy? Manage every aspect of your career. You’ll love your career and your life! Manage your career and life by:
- Having a resume ready for your next career move.
- Targeting your resume to the position you’re seeking for optimal effect.
- Seeking out new skills based on personal aspirations rather than your employer’s.
- Maintaining work/life balance.
- Gaining knowledge and expertise that leads to new opportunities.
- Planning and managing every facet of your career because there is no such thing as a permanent position.
After all, isn’t every job temporary? Formulate a career strategy that works!
