market.Your resume is the first impression you give to a potential employer.It can help you land an interview or may lead to new job opportunities.Whether you are actively seeking a new job,or just want to refresh your existing resume,this page will guide you through the step needed to make your resume stand out from the crowd.Whether you want to advance in your chosen field or youre making a drastic career change,a resume is a job search necessity.It provides an overview of your experience and skills,and a great resume can help you make it passed the screening cut and on to the interview round for a new job.Spending the time to perfect your resume is an investment in your future.Resume(Curriculum Vitae)Resumes can be formatted in different ways,but it must accurately reflect your qualifications and job experiences.Generally,resumes should be kept to around one page,as information over a page is often ignored.Consider creating a standard resume that you can tweak according to the job descriptions regarding jobs you would like to obtain.Customization can help you land a job because you demonstrate that you are a good fit for the business and position.Resume(Curriculum Vitae)When you apply for a job,most employers want to have an important document from you.That is a RESUME.Your resume is usually the first impression that an employer has of you.And because an employer may have hundreds of job applications to consider,you have about 15 seconds to make sure that first impression is a good one.A resume is a selective record of your background-your education,work experience,your certification,abilities and so on.Your resume or CV is your visiting card,your ambassador and shop window.Notes of writing:1.Your resume or CV represents you and it has a specific purpose.So a resume must be attractive,informative,persuasive and pushing sales of yourself.2.The focus of the resume assignment is readability,effective design,and adaptation to audience expectations.3.If you make up a few details in your resume,we think that is okay.However,if you are just starting your college education and have little work experience,try using the techniques and suggestions to create a resume that represents your current skills,abilities and background.4.Developing a decent-looking resume based on what you are now is a challenge that you have to deal with at some points.Step 1:Before You Write Your ResumeBefore you begin constructing a resume,take the time to think about your experience and what type of job youre looking for.If youre re-entering the workforce,you may pick a different format than someone whos been working continuously.A recent college graduate will focus more on educational background than an experienced worker.If youre changing careers,you may opt for a different format than someone who is remaining in his current field.Step 2:Use these Resume Writing TipsBe Honest It is better to address any gaps in employment than to try to hide them.Lying on your resume may get you into an interview,but you still have to go through a background and reference check to land the job.If you state you can perform a task or operate a program you dont know,your lie eventually be exposed.Be Professional If your email address is funny but unprofessional,it may turn off potential employers.If necessary,create a new email address solely for resumes(and dont forget to check it for responses!).Be Concise Write out everything you want to include on your resume.You can trim it down to one page later Note:If you have over 10 years of work experience,that is important and needs to be included,a resume of two pages is acceptable.Use easy-to-read and a clear design to make your resume more appealing.Step 3:Write Your Resumes Objective StatementAn objective statement is the first thing listed after your personal information.It is a sentence or two that sums up your current career goals.The objective statement is not always a resume necessity,but it can be a beneficial summary of what youre looking for in a position.If youre starting your resume from scratch,write your objective statement first.This can help you decide what information to highlight on your resume,even if you ultimately decide not to include an objective statement.Do not write a generic objective statement as it is likely to turn off a prospective employer.Example:My goal is to get a rewarding job that pays well.Your objective statement should relate to the job for which you are applying.Example:An experienced public relations consultant,(I now seek a position as an account manager where I can utilize my management skills.)Step 4:Choose a Resume StyleThere are several types of resumes:Chronological Skills Functional Combination Video You want to think about your situation and create the best resume for your experience and desired job.Most recruiters want your resume to show your career .Therefore,chronological or combination resumes(resumes that list your work history in chronological order,starting with your most recent job)are the most common types.If you have no work history or have worked multiple jobs over a short period of time,an unconventional format may present your talents and abilities in a better light.Pick the type of resume that is best suited to your work history and your goals.If youre unsure what type fits best,try writing your resume in two or more formats,then ask for feedback from friends or relatives.An objective eye may tell you which format is best for you!Most resumes should fit on one page.However,if the information is truly important and necessary,two pages is acceptable.If you have less than 10 years work experience,you should only need a one page resume.It is better to go onto a second page than to leave out important information.Do not go onto a second page for unimportant information,like personal hobbies,out-of-date skills and achievements from over 10 years ago.Chronological ResumesThis is the most common type of resume.It lists your work and educational history in reverse chronological order.The general layout is as follows:List what you achieved in different positions,not what your job responsibilities were.Quantify your on-the-job accomplishments.Condense unimportant information.There is no need to list every job youve had since college.You can include a quick summary of those early positions in a section labeled early career.If youve been in the workforce for several years,your educational background becomes less important.Trimming this section to the basics will leave more room for more recent information.Skills ResumesThis resume style can be particularly useful for someone who is re-entering the workforce,or entering the workforce for the first time,and does not have recent work experience.It is also well-suited for career changes,as you can list skills relevant to the job you want to obtain.Functional ResumesA functional resume is similar in style to a skill-based resume,and can be helpful for recent graduates or people re-entering the workplace.More and more people work in temporary and contract positions these days;a functional resume is another way to highlight the skills you used in these positions.This style lets you demonstrate how your previous work or educational experience has provided you with the appropriate background for the job they are trying to fill.You do not need to list your jobs in chronological order.Place the most relevant jobs first.There is no need to list every job you have held in the career listing section.Only list relevant jobs.Combination ResumesA combination resume mixes the chronological,functional and skills formats.Its another format used by career-changers and those new to the job market,as you can show why you fulfill the needs of the new position.It can be used by older workers,as this format lets you highlight your strongest credentials.This resume format allows people with employments gaps to focus on what you have achieved,not on times were not working.Make sure to write an objective statement for this format.The general layout is as follows:Step 5:Tailor Your ResumeMake sure your resume will stand out in your chosen field.It is common to have a resume tailored to each position you are applying for,instead of using a one size fits all.Your resume should highlight why you are qualified for the position.Remove extraneous information.Do not detail every job experience you have had if it does not relate to the job youre pursuing.Remember,you want your resume to be only one page(two if you have enough business experience that the extra information is important and relevant)!Step 6:Polish Your ResumeNow that youve entered your information and tailored it to your industry,its time to polish your resume!Always check for types and grammatical errors.Then check again and have a friend proofread it.These types of mistakes are easy to fix,and make a big difference in whether or not an employer will consider you for a job!Do not use I or me because the reader already knows the resume is about your accomplishments Employers often scan or upload resumes into electronic databases.For this reason,simpler formatting is the better route to take:Try to avoid using tables.Use spaces instead of tabs to separate sections.Avoid italics,underlining and shadowed text.On that note,perfumed paper,curlicue fonts,and pretty images are all no-nos.You want your resume to stand out,but not for these A simple left-justified resume is easiest to read.Test how your resume looks saved as an RTF file.If it isnt pretty,it needs to be simplified.Only include college and graduate school when listing your education.The fact that you won a spelling bee in first grade will not help you land a job interview!Do not include your height,weight or age;this information is not necessary and will only irritate potential employers.Remove out-of-date terms and technology.Being able to change typewriter ribbons is not a hot skill today.Unless specifically requested to do so by the job posting,do not include references on a resume.You can provide these later during the interview process.The contents of a Resume:1.heading 2.personal information3.objectives(career,study)4.educational experience5.working/job
