Will they love your resume?

February 14, 2011 by Martin Buckland Leave a Comment

Love is in the air on Valentine’s Day but if you are in career transition you won’t let this day or any other prevent you from an active job search. Your commitment and determination will impact the success of your job search but if they don’t love your resume you won’t have the opportunity to find out if the decision maker will love you for the job.

Here are a few tips to ensure they love your resume:

Provide full contact details including home address, phone #’s, email and Linkedin addresses

Ensure work history is complete and there are no gaps in dates

Use action words to start point form quantifiable accomplishments

Clearly note title of each position held in bold caps

List the dates for each position from year to year

Do not exceed 3 pages

List all graduation dates by year

Check for any formatting issues before submitting online

Edit and edit again to correct typo’s or grammatical errors

Use consistent font types and sizes

Ensure page borders are even top/bottom and right/left

Seek additional advice by contacting Elite Resumes for a free resume critique from a Certified Professional Resume Writer.
