Our Resume Modification service will help you tweak and improve an existing resume to make sure that you are putting your best foot forward. Here's how it works: E-mail us a copy of your current resume along with any supporting material that you might include in a job application. We will then schedule a call with you to review everything and learn a little bit more about you. Once we have that information, we will update your resume to help you highlight your qualifications and make sure that you stand out in the crowd. Overall, we'll provide a professional outside opinion of your current resume, and recommend changes that will drastically improve your resume. When we are through, you will receive both a PDF and Microsoft Word version of the document for future use.
Minister Match
410 South Lowe Avenue
Cookeville, TN 38501
Your congregation has just hired a minister, and it seems like they are the perfect fit. Congratulations! There is one more step to the process, though, and it is just as important as the process of finding the right minister. You might have heard people refer to how the “first hundred days” of someone’s job usually sets the tone for their entire career with that organization. The same is true with ministers. Just as your congregation is going through a major transition, so is your new minister. The first few months of a job are a stressful time, and it is the job of the elders and search committee to help your new minister through their transition.
We refer to this as the “On-Boarding Stage.” Since the “first hundred days” is so important to the rest of a minister’s career with your congregation, we believe this stage is one of the keys to reducing minister turnover in the church. In this post, we want to talk about a few of the things that a new minister needs from their congregation during this transition period. We will refer to them as the ABC’s of the On-Boarding Phase.
