  • A stellar profile is your chance to get your
    dream job, develop business, and much more.
    Besides, have you consider uploading resume to

  • To upload resume to LinkedIn, look at the menu
    bar at the top of your page. Then, click the
    following buttons Profile -gt Edit Profile -gt and
    press the down arrow right next to Edit Profile.

    your resume from a computer. If you have your
    written piece in Word or PDF formats, there wont

    button. From now, you know where to add resume to
    LinkedIn.

10
  • However, before you import resume to LinkedIn,
    make sure its effective and attention-grabbing.
    Dont know what a knockout resume should include?
    Here are some clarifications.

11
  • Focus on your achievements, not responsibilities
    impress your reader with powerful words such as
    increased, launched, designed, undertook,
    supervised, managed, and so on. Show results,
    not just what you were responsible for.

12
  • Besides, quantify your accomplishments
    percentages, dollars, numbers of employees under
    your supervision will do the trick. Such data
    usually grab more attention and show what it
    looks like when youre on the job.

13
  • Make the top third of your resume the most
    impressive and informative. Put there your
    exceptional skills, great accomplishments, and
    experience. Do you know why? It turns out
    recruiters while skimming resumes, usually pay
    the biggest attention to the top third of the
    paper.

14
  • If they cant find what there are seeking for in
    your resume, they will easily reject it and
    continue looking for a better candidate.

15
  • Make your resume keyword rich (examples of great
    buzzwords are business development,
    leadership, project management, etc.) which
    relate to your industry and the job description.

16
  • Jargon? Be careful with it! If your resume is
    overflowed with technical terms not all
    recruiters can understand, just cut it off.
    Especially, if youre from jargon-heavy fields
    like engineering or medicine. Simplify a bit your
    written piece.

17
  • The font is crucial as well. It should be easily
    readable and just beautiful. The resume best font
    is basic such as Verdana or Arial. Choosing
    childish fonts like Comic Sans or impossible to
    read Curlz MT will make your resume to stand out
    but in so a negative way.

18
  • Besides, allow some white space in your piece.
    The crammed text is so hard to read, isnt it?
    Make your resume aesthetically pleasing and
    simple to read by balancing paragraphs and white
    space.

19
  • If you want to include long blocks or too massive
    details, redesign it to accurate bullet points.
    Theyre much more digestible.
