Jackson A. Hayes, CDC Apex High School Resume Preparation Jackson A. Hayes, CDC Apex High School

A Resume is… A brief summary of your experience, education, and skills. A marketing tool! Usually one-two pages depending on your work experience. Designed to make an employer want to interview you.

Why is it important to have a professional resume? You need to stand out among the competition!

How long does a recruiter spend taking a first glance at your resume? A recruiter spends no more than 30 seconds! Therefore, your resume must be concise, accurate, and relevant to the job you are seeking.

True or False? A good length for a resume is three to four pages. False. A good length for a resume is one-two pages. Why?

True or False? One well-written resume can be used to apply for any job opening. False. You need to “sell” your skills that relate to the specific position!

True or False? Your resume should only include skills related directly to the job. True. You need to “sell” your skills that relate to the specific position! Even if you do not have many specialized and technical skills, most occupations also require reliability, teamwork, and communication.

Resume Checklist Did I use proper spelling, grammar, punctuation, and style? Did I have several trusted people to proofread my resume? Is my information logical? Are my job descriptions clear and to the point? Is my font easy to read? Did I “sell” my transferable skills (computer, communication, teamwork, organization) Did I tailor my resume to the job that I am seeking? Was I honest on my resume? Was I specific and did I give examples?

Resume Checklist Did I use simple everyday language? Did I include dates whenever appropriate? Did I write out what acronyms stand for because an employer might not know what they mean? Make sure that your resume does NOT include your age, marital status, health information, salary history. Make sure that your resume does NOT use pronouns “I” “We” or abbreviations “won’t” “can’t” Make sure that your resume does not overdo use of bold, italics, or small font Make sure that your resume does not crowd the margins of the page.
