It’s understandable to be concerned and anxious if Nike's recent layoff, which impacted almost 2% of their staff, affected you or if you’re worried that you might be losing your job soon. But this unexpected shift, while unsettling, also opens doors to fresh starts.

Now more than ever, having a clear and compelling resume is what can help you turn this layoff into a new – and potentially even more rewarding – opportunity.

The Impact of Nike Job Cuts in Portland: What It Means for Your Career

Nike's recent decision to let go of around 1,700 employees has quite suddenly changed the lives of many (former) employees. The choice to let these employees go was made in hopes of making their operations more efficient and cutting down expenses. Unfortunately, this decision has suddenly disrupted the careers of many skilled workers. If you are affected, you are not just facing the scary situation of losing a job – you also have to deal with the emotional ups and downs and the challenge of putting yourself back into the job market. The job market is very competitive nowadays – so how do you make sure to stand out?

Why a Professional Resume Matters Now More Than Ever

Your resume matters – a lot. These days, career paths are rarely straightforward. Many people change careers multiple times throughout their lives. When doing so, you need to show off your skills in a way that grabs attention.

When you try to fix your resume on your own, you might miss opportunities to make yourself stand out. A professional resume service can make a big difference.

Think of your resume not just as a piece of paper (or a digital document) but as the story of your professional life. We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Each resume is a unique project, which is shaped by a team with expertise in design, marketing, communications, and writing. We work to mirror your individuality while highlighting your unique and relevant skills and aspirations.
