Can you please give some details or tips for writing a resume?

[lisarobinson]

People usually skim resumes. Too many numbers, too much verbiage, poor spacing, and unclear headings all make a resume difficult to skim. Make sure your resume is clear and strongest positive points are made first.

No matter how terrific a person you are or how much experience you have, a resume for a new college graduate would not exceed one page. A person should only use two pages if the work experience is sufficient to qualify for a management position.

Unnecessary items, such as hobbies, age, race, and marital status, should not be included on a resume. You should stick to the facts and save philosophy for the interview, if asked for it.

Eliminate unnecessary words such as "I," "he," or "she." Resumes are usually written in phrases, beginning with action words, such as "initiated," "supervised," or "developed." In addition, a resume should be focused toward results and accomplishments rather than duties.

The resume should be free of spelling and grammatical errors and laser printed (not photo copied) on white or ivory paper. No fancy typefaces should be used.

References and supervisors' names, as well as pictures, should be excluded.

An individually addressed cover letter should be used each time you send out a resume to a prospective employer. The letter should be addressed to a specific person whenever possible. In it, you should introduce yourself, explain your reason for writing, describe your qualifications which meet those of the position, how you can make a positive contribution to the company, and request an interview.

The art of resume writing can prove to be the most paying skill. In today's world, one can easily hire some professionals to write their resume for them by paying hundreds of dollars to them. Resume writing needs very skilled and experienced hands. Following are some of the tips that can be employed to write a better and more impressive resume.

1. Customize

It is a good idea to customize the resume to echo the type of job that you are aiming at. This will help in getting immediate attention of the reader or the employer. The basic tactic behind the resume writing is to market your experience and skills for that particular job. If the resume is well written and well organized, it can surely guarantee the job. It should be able to clearly present the experience, skills and accomplishments of the person in such a way that the employer should get convinced. Some of the ways to customize the resume are to search out maximum details of the company, search pout different profiles of individuals and prepare a minimum of two resumes.

2. Format

As a general practice, the main employers do not usually read your resumes. They just skim through them to judge the keenness of the applicant. Things like skills, work experience, education and accomplishments are checked in the first go. One of the easiest reasons for the employer to discard the resume is when he finds it illegible or haphazard. Such resumes do not have any value even if you are well qualified for that particular job. This type of resume gives an impression that probably the person is not serious or interested in that job. Hence it is very important for you to have a very well presented and well formed resume. This accounts to be the first and the most important step in the process of job hunt. A very important turn off in a resume is the grammatical and spelling errors. They can be very distracting and irritating and can cause instant rejection. To make your resume more attractive, you can use features like bullets to highlight important points; highlight the achievements and attach a summary of the whole resume at the end.

3. Quality Content of Resume

After shortlisting the suitable candidates, the employers go through the resumes in great details. This means that the content of the resume holds significant place in this whole process. The resume shall be able to sell your qualities in the most effective way. The interview calls and hopefully the final call greatly depend upon the quality content of the resume. The applicants usually just mention the skills and expertise in the resume. The difference is made by the ways that content is sold. Your achievements in the previous job shall also be mentioned in a very proper manner. These small details will eventually make the resume different, believable and successful.

An overview of the resume generates a vivid image in the employers mind as to where is the applicant is standing. Therefore it is suggested that one remains precise but effective while writing the resume. These tricks can prove to be very helpful for any one; be it the newcomers or the old job shifting people.
