Career Cruising How To Build A Resume!

What is a Resume? According to Alison Doyle, a resume is a written document that describes your education, work experience, skills, and accomplishments and is used to apply for jobs. There are many different types of resumes but one of the most popular is a chronological resume. A professional resume is very important because it’s what the potential employer will view to decide whether or not to interview and hire you! A resume gives a first impression of you, describing you and all your strengths. With the economic crisis, finding a job has become more difficult! With a clear, concise, and well-written resume, you will be more competitive in the job market.

Things to Consider When Writing a Resume… Be honest ~ Don’t list skills or experience you don’t have. Be brief ~ Employers are looking for a summary of your qualifications, not a biography. Be relevant ~ Limit your resume to what might be of interest to potential employers. Proofread ~ Make sure your resume has no spelling or grammatical mistakes
