Unit 2 Your Resume Warm-up how to write a resume New words & expressions Grammar Focus Merry Learning

Warm-up how to write a resume What is a resume anyway? Remember: a Resume is a self- promotional document that presents you in the best possible light, for the purpose of getting inv ited to a job interview. It's not an official person nel document. It's not a job application. It's not a "career obituary"! And it's not a confessional.

What is the most common resume mistake mad e by job hunters? Leaving out their Job Objective! If you don't sho w a sense of direction, employers won't be inter ested. Having a clearly stated goal doesn't have to confine you if it's stated well.

What's the first step in writing a resume? Decide on a job target (or "job objective") that can be stated in about 5 or 6 words. Anything beyond that is probably "fluff" and indicates a l ack of clarity and direction
