1

00:00:00,630 --> 00:00:00,920

Use



2

00:00:05,500 --> 00:00:10,270

as you've noticed in the videos you want to reverse engineer the skills and mix a little bit of your



3

00:00:10,270 --> 00:00:13,230

unique differentiators together.



4

00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:19,180

So what we're going to do to reverse engineer this fails here is we're just going to go since John is



5

00:00:19,180 --> 00:00:25,150

targeting a Big Four accounting firm I'm using being I use Google matter you see it in junior associate



6

00:00:25,710 --> 00:00:32,370

KPMG jobs and one client there's a junior business analyst that's a good one.



7

00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:40,500

All right so what you're going to see here is we're going to see some really start to see some some



8

00:00:40,510 --> 00:00:42,980

common skills.



9

00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,600

So what we're doing is is reverse engineering here.



10

00:00:45,710 --> 00:00:47,580

So interviewing clients.



11

00:00:47,710 --> 00:00:49,800

So that's something to take note of.



12

00:00:49,870 --> 00:00:52,900

But their resumes are somewhere



13

00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:02,830

right in the firemans gathering documentation



14

00:01:05,300 --> 00:01:06,980

like maybe you do it



15

00:01:10,990 --> 00:01:15,250

and you can see that you know I know about that because I have a background in financial recruiting



16

00:01:15,580 --> 00:01:16,580

audit preparation.



17

00:01:16,810 --> 00:01:22,180

But you know you should know that more about whatever particular job function you're you know that you're



18

00:01:22,180 --> 00:01:22,780

going for.



19

00:01:22,810 --> 00:01:29,940

And if you ever need to find out more you know where you can go in and and Google it and just you know



20

00:01:29,950 --> 00:01:30,650

find out.



21

00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:40,120

See you want to create a concrete little skills cluster so you see analysis and design for dissipation.



22

00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,700

All right.



23

00:01:42,870 --> 00:01:47,560

Seeing another thing year about documentation.



24

00:01:47,750 --> 00:01:52,300

I we're doing here hear the qualification section is another good time to look at the skills here



25

00:01:55,810 --> 00:01:59,790

multitasking and time management see that your



26

00:02:04,570 --> 00:02:11,330

services are written and verbal communication skills strong quantitative skills.



27

00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:18,300

There's analytic again quantitative you know those that's kind of the same thing quantitative and analytic.



28

00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:25,810

So you know that's probably definitely worth if you can put that in bold just so that we can so that



29

00:02:26,020 --> 00:02:27,570

you guys can see that clearly.



30

00:02:27,580 --> 00:02:28,710

But we had.



31

00:02:29,050 --> 00:02:29,340

Right.



32

00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:34,260

So just in the interest of time we can just go ahead and roll with this.



33

00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,440

And in the future low you know you're welcome to go in.



34

00:02:37,450 --> 00:02:37,920

Google.



35

00:02:37,930 --> 00:02:39,330

Multiple job descriptions.



36

00:02:39,490 --> 00:02:48,280

Actually a business analyst as this is not exactly the kind of job that John was targeting But you know



37

00:02:48,610 --> 00:02:54,190

if it's close if it's kind of the same level of seniority then you'll see that a lot of the skills are



38

00:02:54,190 --> 00:02:54,610

the same.



39

00:02:54,610 --> 00:02:57,930

I mean I think John probably wants to be more of a solid like audit associate.



40

00:02:58,150 --> 00:03:03,160

But anyway for our purposes we can go ahead and position John for this business analyst thing and it'll



41

00:03:03,190 --> 00:03:06,810

probably work for his audit associate as well.



42

00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:12,130

But anyway since you're spending time it's always good to spend some time reverse engineering the skills



43

00:03:12,130 --> 00:03:18,370

and making sure that what you highlight is right in your head because honestly these big six skills



44

00:03:18,370 --> 00:03:21,790

here are going to inform how you develop your whole resume.



45

00:03:21,920 --> 00:03:27,350

And you know later on how you develop your whole personal branding and everything.



46

00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:31,710

So with respect to your career presentation anyway cool.



47

00:03:31,750 --> 00:03:32,190

All right.



48

00:03:32,350 --> 00:03:36,850

So I'm going to go ahead and add something from my notes here from the things that John and I worked



49

00:03:36,850 --> 00:03:37,840

on together.



50

00:03:37,930 --> 00:03:45,510

So he so he told me that he was that he had experience with all that preparation and one of his internships.



51

00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:53,340

And then he said he had experience with think reconciliations and journal entries.



52

00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:59,410

He said that he had a financial analysis piece team work and research.



53

00:03:59,950 --> 00:04:00,550

Ok cool.



54

00:04:00,580 --> 00:04:06,230

I know that I know that a lot of these companies value teamwork so that's a good one.



55

00:04:06,250 --> 00:04:08,150

And then let's see.



56

00:04:08,170 --> 00:04:14,530

He also had problem solving skills and this is always a good one to highlight if you're going for some



57

00:04:14,530 --> 00:04:16,190

kind of consulting situation.



58

00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,020

So anyway it's important to note actually this is a good time to say like you know.



59

00:04:20,170 --> 00:04:20,770

So anyway.



60

00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,050

Problem solving skills it sounds kind of broad.



61

00:04:23,050 --> 00:04:23,970

Right.



62

00:04:24,020 --> 00:04:28,810

And you know you see here that that especially if you are if you don't have a lot of work experience



63

00:04:28,810 --> 00:04:33,550

yet so like less than say five years you know you can talk about your skills and interests.



64

00:04:33,550 --> 00:04:37,600

Whereas if you're doing a more senior level resume you're going to probably want to say professional



65

00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:44,270

expertise and you'll be using one of the more senior low mid mid to senior level templates.



66

00:04:44,380 --> 00:04:46,390

But anyway you know problem solving skill.



67

00:04:46,420 --> 00:04:48,900

Obviously there's a lot of different ways you can highlight that in the future.



68

00:04:48,900 --> 00:04:55,480

So go ahead and be comfortable if you need us to you know put on your resume a relatively soft skill



69

00:04:56,290 --> 00:05:00,880

like teamwork or problem solving that those are good things that were on your as one of your big skills



70

00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:04,130

that is relevant to the job you do that you're applying for.



71

00:05:04,150 --> 00:05:10,210

All right so now that we've got all of these We're going to kind of mix them up together.



72

00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:13,510

All right.



73

00:05:13,700 --> 00:05:15,600

And we're going to see if we can cluster together.



74

00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,430

We've got analysis and design prep participation.



75

00:05:19,740 --> 00:05:21,380

Multitasking in time is so.



76

00:05:21,430 --> 00:05:23,570

Like one.



77

00:05:24,210 --> 00:05:32,290

Here's another one to audit preparation so that two of those because he said he had a preparation



78

00:05:38,100 --> 00:05:43,290

interviewing client this probably goes in here with this writing and verbal communication so we can



79

00:05:43,290 --> 00:05:45,980

probably watch those together as well.



80

00:05:46,140 --> 00:05:49,800

So you can probably group together this research and all that preparation



81

00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,450

is all of preparation is all about gathering documents and getting them online.



82

00:05:57,450 --> 00:06:05,130

That's kind of what research is about two or five.



83

00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:06,960

I think I'm going to go ahead and do this.



84

00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:08,050

Problem Solving



85

00:06:12,710 --> 00:06:18,720

the networks how perfectly now we have six of these skills here and they're not perfectly phrased yet.



86

00:06:18,750 --> 00:06:21,630

That's cool but it is worked out nicely in this case.



87

00:06:21,630 --> 00:06:27,510

You see that we have six skills later on we might have in your case you might see like I have only four



88

00:06:27,870 --> 00:06:29,230

or I have eight.



89

00:06:29,290 --> 00:06:32,570

And so what I would tell you is like if if in this case we only had four.



90

00:06:32,730 --> 00:06:38,420

What you can do is you can divide up something that is sort of a bigger skill into multiple.



91

00:06:38,550 --> 00:06:44,550

For example you can make interviewing clients and written and verbal communication skills rather than



92

00:06:44,550 --> 00:06:45,450

one.



93

00:06:45,450 --> 00:06:50,970

And if you have too many skills you can do the reverse or just make sure that you are highlighting skills



94

00:06:50,970 --> 00:06:57,060

that are relevant and most relevant to the job that you're applying for and it's OK to just leave a



95

00:06:57,060 --> 00:07:01,350

couple skills out you don't have to tell everything on your resume just what's going to get you to the



96

00:07:01,350 --> 00:07:03,880

next step which is an interview anyway.



97

00:07:03,990 --> 00:07:08,540

So we're not going to phrase these now what I'm going to do is I'm just going to go and put these in



98

00:07:09,220 --> 00:07:12,280

the in in the Big Six skills.



99

00:07:12,370 --> 00:07:17,460

All right now before we do that and we start sort of format go back and look at the job description



100

00:07:17,460 --> 00:07:23,700

and just see what the what the company is prioritizing in their job announcement



101

00:07:26,510 --> 00:07:32,330

so the first thing that they say is interviewing clients understand their business needs requirements



102

00:07:32,330 --> 00:07:35,600

gathering and documentation analysis and design decisions.



103

00:07:35,750 --> 00:07:37,680

So they're basically use.



104

00:07:37,700 --> 00:07:43,070

You see that one thing that they're prioritizing first is this interviewing clients and written and



105

00:07:43,070 --> 00:07:44,050

verbal communication.



106

00:07:44,050 --> 00:07:45,860

So we're to go and make that one.



107

00:07:45,860 --> 00:07:53,680

I saw the next one was audit to that to see see this requirements gathering documentation.



108

00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:58,740

And that is yes or no analysis.



109

00:07:58,790 --> 00:07:59,810

This is what I want.



110

00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:06,740

So yeah basically analysis is sort of too because audit preparation and research this is kind of ok



111

00:08:06,770 --> 00:08:10,470

cool actually this is to lot of preparation and research.



112

00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:16,970

This is three because if you see here it's kind of like one is this you know interviewing clients for



113

00:08:16,970 --> 00:08:23,060

their business needs you know that's very communication oriented requirements gathering and documentation



114

00:08:23,060 --> 00:08:25,800

that's more audit oriented research oriented.



115

00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,520

An analysis is you know analysis.



116

00:08:28,700 --> 00:08:36,330

So that's why we did one show you see one is here to



117

00:08:38,990 --> 00:08:44,100

audit perforation and three is analysis and design.



118

00:08:44,410 --> 00:08:50,480

So then now let's go ahead and rent the other ones and see John's got it's got basically some basic



119

00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:57,230

accounting skills here and problem solving in a team environment and then multitasking and time management.



120

00:08:57,230 --> 00:08:58,100

OK.



121

00:08:58,460 --> 00:09:02,240

So let's go here and see how they prioritize them.



122

00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:08,900

All right so just looking over here to see how they start prioritizing.



123

00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:14,990

So I see this time management here and I see some tax stuff there.



124

00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:19,190

OK so what I think we're going to do is we're going to go ahead and do time management as the fourth



125

00:09:19,190 --> 00:09:25,340

one and then we're into the fifth one is this basically some tax stuff which is really accounting stuff



126

00:09:25,790 --> 00:09:27,160

that is tax stuff.



127

00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:30,260

And then 6 is problem solving a team environment.



128

00:09:30,260 --> 00:09:38,780

All right so we're now now what you should do is let's just do this interviewing written verbal communication



129

00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:50,370

which is that cut that and put it here the way to take the art of preparation research that towards



130

00:09:50,390 --> 00:09:53,950

building our big skills right here



131

00:09:57,350 --> 00:10:08,230

in this year.



132

00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,710

Okay great.



133

00:10:15,710 --> 00:10:15,950

All right.



134

00:10:15,950 --> 00:10:23,540

So these should all be bold more bold because this is exactly what we want people to see right when



135

00:10:23,540 --> 00:10:26,760

they see jobs I want to see the bolts.



136

00:10:26,770 --> 00:10:29,610

They're like OK for the skills today.



137

00:10:29,870 --> 00:10:30,200

All right.



138

00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,630

So let's just go ahead as we wrap up this part.



139

00:10:32,630 --> 00:10:36,320

Let's actually make these sound Let's phrase.



140

00:10:36,710 --> 00:10:40,660

So this one interviewing written and verbal communication sites.



141

00:10:40,700 --> 00:10:42,990

I think you can probably just say all right.



142

00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,980

I think that's probably sufficient written and verbal communication because I think that gets into the



143

00:10:48,140 --> 00:10:48,520

ring.



144

00:10:48,560 --> 00:10:52,890

Well that's good interviewing writing and verbal communication.



145

00:10:52,980 --> 00:10:53,340

All right.



146

00:10:53,420 --> 00:10:54,170

So that's good.



147

00:10:54,210 --> 00:10:55,710

Make that as one.



148

00:10:55,820 --> 00:10:56,270

All right.



149

00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:58,820

So the next one is audit preparation and research.



150

00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:00,350

OK so I like the word audit.



151

00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:10,380

Perforation I think this is good preparation and research like the but I think actually research should



152

00:11:10,380 --> 00:11:14,880

go first because it's more of a skill than



153

00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:19,870

OK.



154

00:11:20,140 --> 00:11:24,330

So I'm just going to make these with the Geran researching.



155

00:11:24,990 --> 00:11:25,480

OK.



156

00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:29,990

So you see the reason I did the Geran there is that this one is in the Jarron interviewing writing.



157

00:11:30,020 --> 00:11:32,110

So we want to be researching preparing.



158

00:11:32,110 --> 00:11:36,580

We want to match the Teano parallel verb structure that's important.



159

00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:41,950

So you know that's not to say you have to do it this way you could say interviews interview like you



160

00:11:41,950 --> 00:11:48,430

can do for example written and verbal communication that's fine use to make sure that the same verb



161

00:11:48,430 --> 00:11:49,520

structure goes throughout.



162

00:11:49,540 --> 00:11:52,660

These these six skills and throughout your resume anyway.



163

00:11:52,660 --> 00:11:54,310

So cool.



164

00:11:54,310 --> 00:11:56,160

I also you know as I change this to.



165

00:11:56,230 --> 00:12:04,540

Rather than audit preparation I said preparing documentation and that's because when you look here they



166

00:12:04,540 --> 00:12:07,890

actually used the words the word documentation.



167

00:12:08,110 --> 00:12:12,940
