Before Traction Resume, I spent years inside the medical sales world as a medical sales professional, ex-pharma recruiter, and 5X layoff survivor. As an executive contract recruiter, I reviewed more than 16,000 medical and pharmaceutical sales resumes, which gave me a front-row view into how strong candidates get filtered out before anyone understands their value.
That perspective still updates every day. Many Traction Resume clients are hiring leaders, interviewers, and decision-makers themselves, so I hear what hiring teams are actually looking for, what recruiters are screening for, and where talented candidates lose traction.
After reviewing thousands of resumes and living through my own layoffs, I saw the same pattern again and again: talented people were doing the work, but their positioning didn't make the value obvious quickly enough.
That became the foundation for the Traction Resume system: target clarity, career storytelling, resume and LinkedIn strategy, networking language, interview preparation, and a practical search plan that works together.
