RayZooMay provides a new composite of resume preparation services to area customers who are shifting industries from once-secure automotive professions to the cinema entertainment industry.

Michigan employees and employers have long relied on two specific classes of resume, which each highlighted two particular main selling points in a prospective employee: As classed by the Michigan Works! Talent Bank web resource, a resume can be built to highlight an individual's consistent employment history and experience in a chosen field (a Chronology or Chronological Resume) or it can alternatively be built to reflect specific skills in the process of seeking employment in a new field (a Functional Resume).

RayZooMay provides you with the ability to create a Functional Resume tailored specifically to the Performing Arts, a class of resume not formatted at Michworks. Until 2008 when the Michigan Film Office was established, Michigan had no incentives for employers in the Performing Arts except MCAC Grants from the Department of History, Arts and Libraries, which has been eliminated for 2010. Between these two points it's unlikely that a service like this is forthcoming from the government. As we all know, the only way to reach anyone seeking workers within the Metro Area is with the correct form of resume. At present, resume composition skills even in Michigan Public Schools is still taught with the two existing methods.

Actor
Model
Singer
Dancer
Reporter
Musician
Performer
Entertainer
Broadcast News Analyst
Radio and Television Announcer

These careers all involve a completely different resume building process.
Did you know that?

Further, Performance Arts resumes in the industry follow a very strict set of guidelines, and the internet has made sudden and clear progress, but in changing only very few of the least-guarded aspects of this. Why make mistakes? For your resume, as they say in the movies, let's cut to the chase.

As part of the service, RayZooMay.net offers - free- Performance Arts tailored resume composition and listing just like Michworks' job bank except it is sensitive to the needs of artists and performers working in a blossoming Film Production industry.

A cost-minimizing system of producing durable print resumes for the Performing Arts with guaranteed personal attention is the backbone of RayZooMay. Sensibly engineered improvements over the industry standard resume and low cost will be standard fare with the products, and innovation in quality and turnaround versus operating cost and client volume and satisfaction will dictate pricing. RayZooMay aims to field concepts for processing clients and the product they purchase, within a very narrow and precisely tuned range of ultimate cost and utility. This is a viable solution for people seeking a start at moving from within the Automotive sector and taking aim at film industry.

RayZooMay is currently scouting Pontiac, Ann Arbor, and cities in Macomb County Michigan for permanent business location. Formatting and composition services will be offered at these locations along with photography and resume reproduction. Via RayZooMay, clients will obtain a mix of industry-compliant products and personal service. At the heart, the service itself is made accessible to the masses while providing assured quality.

RayZooMay uses the internet as a promotion of Michigan talent and not as a requirement for participation.
