How often do you take the time to update your resume? I try to do so on or around my work anniversary every year, even if that’s just cracking it open to review. What about you?

Also, I’m looking for someone to help review and possibly rewrite my resume so any recommendations would be great!

I got into the habit, because of some mentors, of updating my resume once a year. I wasn’t necessarily looking to job hop, but I’d keep it fresh because I heard their words echoing in my ear. As luck would have it, and because they are very wise, I constantly ended up using that freshened-up resume… For speaking engagements, special project opportunities, career-related opportunities, etc. Keeping a resume fresh turns out to be a great exercise in growing your own prospects, above and beyond just a job search.
