RESUME


The resume is a selling tool so write a resume that outlines your skills and experiences briefly so an employer can quickly see how you can contribute to the specific workplace.
You write a good resume because while you may have all the requirements to fill a particular position, your resume is a failure if the prospective employer does not come to the conclusion that you are the perfect candidate. Write a good resume so that your resume ends up in the "consider file" NOT the "reject file".



"How to write a resume" process:
The resume format is essential to reviewing all your personal and professional successes. Refine your resume format, keep it concise and create a top-notch resume that is a perfect reflection of you.

Content:
Name is at top of the page when you write a resume: this is highlighted by larger type size and bolding and an option to underline.
Make sure that the Address and phone number(s) are complete and correct when you write a resume.
All entries when you write a resume highlight a capability or accomplishment.
Descriptions use active verbs with consistent tense as you write a resume.
Repetition of words or phrases are kept to a minimum when you write a resume.
Capitalization, punctuation, and date formats are consistent as you write a resume.
There are NO typos or spelling errors when you write a resume.

Organization:
Best assets when you write a resume are listed first - whether education, experience, or skills.
When you write a resume the page must be easily reviewed: categories - clear, text - indented.
Dates of employment - easy to find and consistently formatted when you write a resume.
Your name - printed at the top of each page as you write a resume.

Format/Design:
No more than two conservative typestyles should appear when you write a resume.
Consistent use of bolding, italics, and capitalization needs to support the information structure when you write a resume.
Margins and line spacing are used to minimize overcrowding when you write a resume.
When you write a resume print only on one side of the high-quality bond paper - your choice of beige or ivory is preferable when you write a resume.
Good reproduction needed when you write a resume - no blurring, stray marks, or faint letters.
Right justification creates awkward white spaces when you write a resume - right side of the page needs "ragged" format.
Avoid these common resume blunders in your resume format.
