WHAT IS A "JIST" CARD?
A JIST Card is a small card, either business sized or 3x5 used in networking. Developed by Michael Farr back in the 1970s, JIST stands for Job Information Seeking and Training, and goes beyond the concepts and benefits offered by a business or calling card. JIST Cards provide a clear, concise 30-second snap shot of what you have to offer an employer in an easy-to-read, memorable format.

If you're a job seeker who does a lot of networking, having a JIST Card is a great way to deliver your résumé quickly and discreetly should you run into a prospective employer. Because when you think about it, how often are you likely to have your resume handy? Probably not very often.

We can help you put together a JIST Card following the completion of your résumé. This card can be laser printed on most any office supply store paper (such as 3x5 index cards) or can be custom printed for distribution at job fairs, business luncheons and other similar networking opportunities. When combined with a web page résumé, you stand to gain even more of a competitive edge.
