05 Nov 2025

Description

What if the only thing holding back your Customer Success career is a resume that’s getting ignored even though you KNOW you bring the results, experience, and drive? In this episode, I share the real story of Maya, a seasoned Customer Success Manager (CSM) with a killer track record who was stuck applying into the void. She thought her Customer Success resume was fine... until we tore it apart and rebuilt it, turning walls of blah text into sharp, specific highlights that proved her impact in seconds.I’ll walk you through the exact five-step strategy we used, including how to lead with proof, cut the fluff, show off your results and how you got them, and make sure every bullet shines whether you’re staying in your field or switching industries altogether. You’ll learn why most resumes miss the mark and how to fix yours so recruiters and hiring managers can’t help but call you for interviews. If you’re tired of waiting for someone to notice you and ready to be the talk of the recruiting team, hit play. Your January job search will thank you.2:05 – Why Your Resume Might Be Sending You Into the Job Search “Black Hole”3:22 – How Showing Proof (Not Just Adjectives) Makes Hiring Managers Stop Scrolling7:00 – The Three Questions Every Bullet Point Must Answer for Resume Success10:00 – Why Explaining Your Process Is Key (Not Just Results)13:27 – The Power of Making Your Resume Scannable (and ChatGPT’s Secret Editing Sauce) 15:45 – How to Translate Jargon Into Universally Understood, Career-Boosting Language19:08 – The Five-Step Resume Audit to Get Noticed in January’s Hiring Frenzy 🛎️ FREEBIES & RESOURCES:Optimize your resume for Customer Success jobs to land consistent interviews with my FREE Masterclass: https://customer-success-career.captivate.fm/resumeActively looking for a job in Customer Success or plan to in the near future?
