Executive Summary   Studio67 is a new medium-sized restaurant located in a trendy neighborhood of Portland, Oregon. Studio67's emphasis will be on organic and creative ethnic food. An emphasis on organic ingredients is based on Studio67's dedication to sustainable development. Additionally, the restaurant procures local foods when possible, reducing their dependence on fossil foods used for transportation.   Studio67 offers Portlanders a trendy, fun place to have great food in a social environment. Chef Mario Langostino has a large repertoire of ethnic ingredients and recipes. Studio67 forecasts that the majority of purchases will be from the chef's recommendations. Ethnic recipes will be used to provide the customers with a diverse, unusual menu. Chef Mario will also be emphasizing healthy dishes, recognizing the trend within the restaurant industry for the demand for healthy cuisine.   Studio67 believes that the market can be segmented into four distinct groups that it aims to target. The first group is the lonely rich which number 400,000 people. The second group that will be targeted is young happy customers which are growing at an annual rate of 8% with 150,000 potential customers. The third group is rich hippies who naturally desire organic foods as well as ethnic cuisine. The last group which is particularly interested in the menu's healthy offerings is dieting women which number 350,000 in the Portland area.   Studio67 has assembled a strong management team. Andrew Flounderson will be the general manager. Andrew has extensive management experience of organizations ranging from six to 45 people. Jane Flap will be responsible for all of the finance and accounting functions. Jane has seven years experience as an Arthur Andersen CPA. Jane's financial control skills will be invaluable in keeping Studio67 on track and profitable. Lastly, Studio67 has chef Marion Langostino who will be responsible for the back-end production of the venture. Chef Mario has over 12 years of experience and is a published, visible fixture in the Portland community.   Most important to Studio67 is the financial success which will be achieved through strict financial controls. Additionally, success will be ensured by offering a high-quality service and extremely clean, non-greasy food with interesting twists. Studio67 does plan to raise menu rates as the restaurant gets more and more crowded, and to make sure that they are charging a premium for the feeling of being in the "in crowd."   The market and financial analyses indicate that with a start-up expenditure of $141,000, Studio67 can generate $350,000 in sales by year one, $500,000 in sales by the end of year two and produce net profits of 7.5% on sales by the end of year three. Profitability will be reached by year two.

A resume is a document that lists all the information an employer would need evaluate you and your background. It explains your immediate goals and career objectives. This information is followed by an explanation of your educational background, experience, interests, and other relevant data.

If you have exceptional abilities and do not communicate them to the employer on the resume, those abilities are not part of the person he or she will evaluate. You must be comprehensive and clear in your resume if you are to communicate all your abilities.

Your resume is an advertisement for yourself. If your ad is better than the other person’s ad, you are more likely to get the interview. In this case, “better” means that your ad highlights your attributes in an attractive way.

In discussing your education, for example, be sure to highlight your extracurricular activities such as part-time jobs, sports, clubs, and other such activities. If you did well in school, put down your grades. The idea is to make yourself look as good on paper as you are in reality.

The same is true for your job experience. Be sure to describe what you did, any special projects in which you participated, and any responsibilities you had.

For the “other interests” section, if you include one, do not just list your interests, but describe how deeply you were involved. If you organized the club, volunteered your time, or participated more often than usual in an organization, make sure to say so in the resume.

 

A good resume should:

1. Invite you to read it, have a clear layout, top-quality printing, and eliminate extraneous information.

2. Start sentences with action verbs such as organized, managed and designed, rather than lead-ins (“I was the person responsible for...”).

3. Highlight those accomplishments related to future work.

4. Be free of spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors.

5. Speak the reader’s language by using the vocabulary you are targeting.

6. Make a strong statement; that means using the most relevant information-nothing less, nothing more.

Things to notice:

1. You would be surprised how many people forget to include their home (permanent) phone number. You can use a second school number as well.

2. It is permissible to eliminate high school data if it doesn’t add to the total picture. Employers will get this information on the application form anyway.

3. Use numbers and quantities where possible.

4. It simplifies matters to eliminate month designations.

5. Rewards and citations help.

6. Note more details on real results, and the communications of value stressed over simple “duties”.

7. It is permissible to claim a piece of the overall successes.

8. When applying for a post abroad give the names of equivalent qualifications which can be easily understood by the reader. If there is no equivalent qualification, describe the diploma obtained.

eg. a D.E.U.G.: a University qualification obtained after two years’ study
