While I am working this project, how can I put this on a resume as project? -I am currently working with a group and we just have written up a business plan. I have started a brief market research campaign. -This is my first serious attempt at starting a business and never had any experience with developing a marketing plan before or business plan. So this is college without grades and paying tuition. -The accomplishments that pertain to me in this project: -Learned a lot about starting a business in general -I have fundamental understanding in starting a marketing campaign thanks to the internet - Developed more into a leader. - How to compare competitors and improve on what they are doing into what we are doing - I have found that I am awesome researcher and think very analytically. Overall: this is still in progress but still want to add this to the list to show creativity and being a self starter and I can stand up to any challenge. Trying to figure out what this can do for an employer. Suggestions? #thanks!:)
When I hire people, I actively search for people with side projects, either current or past.
I'm not interested in the skills they've obtained from them, I'm just searching for a "self started" or motivated person.
People who start side projects are generally more passionate and have a greater understand of the overall process of the working environment.
Just simply mention that you're motivated by starting things and building them from the ground up, and that you're currently doing that now.
