Writing that Resume
What is a resume? To every job applicant, this is the most important thing you have. Simply put: your job resume is you on paper.
So what are the things you need to put on your resume? You need not write your whole life’s story; if you were the employer, would you want to read pages and pages worth of resumes from every applicant (thousands, often)?
Resumes should be brief, and should contain the highlights of your education, career, interests, and skills.
Here are a couple of important tips to remember:
1. Do not lie.
It might be tempting to add one or a couple of details which might make you seem more interesting, but that will only complicate things for you. If you say that you are adept at computer skills and your employer suddenly asks you to encode something or use Excel and you tell him or her that you have no idea how to use a computer, he or she will realize that you are lying, and will end up doubting everything else that you wrote on your resume.
2. Avoid being excessive.
If you joined so many contests during college, attended countless seminars and volunteered at all kinds of jobs, it might seem reasonable to put all of these in your resume. Yet your resume should always be brief—put things which are related to the job that you are applying for. Even if you are proud of that cooking contest you won, putting it in your resume which you will submit to an environmental organization will probably not help you that much. Highlight the things you have done which are related to the job you are applying for to show them that you have previous experiences, and not simply a newcomer.
