http://cts.vresp.com/c/?CareerTransitionForD/6eec75f595/1f5d2278c5/6768e659a6 June Moves is all about resumes!  Career transitions of any kind
require competitive resumes, and we have tips on writing them.  From
our collective experience as both job-seekers and hirers, the best
advice we can give is two-fold: 1) proofread, proofread, proofread,
and have someone else proofread your resume, and 2) follow the
application instructions to the letter; often, the only way to make
it past the first "go-round" is to be sure to include the requested
cover letter and writing sample.

just plain wrong, and second, someone will be checking.  If that's
not enough to convince you not to lie on your resume, read this

idea).

Between Shows Get-Together at Sardi's

By Melanie Brown, Gala and Client Outreach Coordinator

One of our annual outreach events at Career Transition For Dancers is
the Between Shows Get-Together for Broadway dancers at the famous
Sardi's Restaurant -
http://cts.vresp.com/c/?CareerTransitionForD/6eec75f595/1f5d2278c5/ad807640f7 . Wednesday is a busy day for Broadway performers; they play two
shows, one at 2pm and one at 8pm, with just a couple of hours of
downtime in between. At CTFD, we like to seize any and all
opportunities to serve the dancers we love, and this event is only
one of many.

The event, a standing springtime tradition for more than ten years,
is a chance for Broadway dancers to get together, chat, network, and
hear about the programs and services that Career Transition For
Dancers offers. In the few hours between the last curtain of the
first show and call for the next show, the dancers come to Sardi's,
learn about us, and enjoy a delicious buffet, open bar, and excellent
company.

This year's turnout was excellent--the event hummed with dancers from
every show. From Jesus Christ Superstar, to How to Succeed in
Business, to Mary Poppins, and beyond, the Eugenia Room was at
capacity. We even had a few former So You Think You Can Dance -
http://cts.vresp.com/c/?CareerTransitionForD/6eec75f595/1f5d2278c5/a328cc4c55  contestants join us for the party! Alex Wong (Season 7), Jess Le
Protto (Season 8), and Thayne Jasperson (Season 4) all represented
Newsies at this year 's event. It was exciting for CTFD, especially
given our new partnership with Nigel Lythgoe and SYTYCD.
