About Career Edge
As in any activity where you are seeking advice and council, the overriding question is:
How and who do I choose for the best council? Do I choose someone with the most workshop certifications or do I choose someone who has “been there” and knows what works? Do I choose the biggest and hope I draw a good employee or get the priority I require?
In any endeavor there are pretenders and contenders. We will assure you that Career Edge is a contender and that if you partner with us, job hunters will be serious contenders for the jobs they seek.

Human Resources Technology
To support successful business recruiting, we utilized current Human Resources technology in selection decision making. Applying technology to an otherwise in-exacting science of selection not only has proven invaluable in the selection process but successful candidates thrived in their new positions. We apply this same technology for the job hunter. Our objective is not only to help the job hunter with placement but to have them thrive in their new position as well. Job competency modeling is a proven Human Resource technology that identifies strengths that predict success on a job and provides insight as to what the hiring manager will be seeking in filling the job opening before job hunters ever walk into the interview. Having prior knowledge of the key behaviors the resume reviewer is seeking allows Career Edge to emphasis and project those behaviors in job hunter resumes and gain the attention of the reviewer.

Combining hiring expertise and technology with job hunter strengths, we deliver resumes, interview preparation and career strategy that differentiate our clients and create the edge that can move them to the front.
You can search for comparative support but the combination of applied selection expertise and application of human technology will be difficult to duplicate and is proving to be a very effective combination in assisting our clients. (see testimonials)
Job search is a daunting task and sometimes lonely journey where effective
support can make all the difference. Career Edge is with job hunters each
step of the way in utilizing our ability and the job hunter’s strength
