Resume Tips!

• Organization – Present your information in a well organized manner. Make sure your important information is easy to find. A potential employer is not going to search for hidden gems of information.



• Proofreading – Make sure to check your resume for spelling, punctuation and grammatical mistakes.



• Be Precise – Do not make your resume wordy. List the information in exact wording that is clear and to the point.



• Language – Use industry terms to demonstrate knowledge of the industry, but do not show off.



• Targeting The Job – Make sure your resume presents in a manner that will address the employer’s needs.



• Paper Choice – If you are mailing your resume use a high quality paper. Papers that are made with cotton fibers and (or) a watermark present well. If you are using watermarked paper, make sure to print your resume so that the watermark reads properly. Yes, the employer may check this and it shows you pay attention to detail.
