Press Release Summary: Especially in a recessionary economy, job-seekers should take
advantage of summer to enhance their resumes, drawing from a rich supply of new
resume samples at Quintessential Careers.


Press Release Body: DeLand, FL, June 13, 2008 -- While job-seekers may resist
crafting a new resume because they suspect employers aren\'t hiring during the summer
-- especially in a recession -- those are exactly the reasons workers need to keep
their resumes polished and up to date, said Quintessential Careers\' Founder and
Publisher Dr. Randall S. Hansen.

Hansen explained that summer is an excellent time to seek a new job as \"competition
is minimal because job-seekers assume that hiring decisions will be postponed until
fall.\" He added that current economic conditions dictate that workers be ready with
effective resumes in case of unexpected layoffs.

Hansen suggested that job-seekers use summertime to fine-tune their resumes and lay
the groundwork for future hiring. To help job-seekers in this quest, Hansen noted,
Quintessential Careers (http://www.quintcareers.com/), an online career-development
site, has just added 100 new resume and cover-letter samples covering a wide range
of occupations and professions, for job-seekers from new college grads to senior
executives, said Hansen.

Visitors to Quintessential Careers conduct more searches using the terms \"resume
samples\" than virtually any other type of content, Hansen said. \"That\'s why we\'re
delighted to provide more of what users are looking for.\"

As with all the other tools and resources on Quintessential Careers, there is no
cost for these new resume and cover letter samples, said Hansen.

The new resume and cover-letter additions include samples in these categories:

Hansen emphasized the value of improving one\'s resume and job hunting during the
summer. \"Vacations can be planned around the possibility of relocating to another
city. In addition, fiscal years often begin in June or July, making new hiring
possible,\" Hansen said.
