Quick Tips for Resume Writing
Everyone wants to believe that when they write
their resume and send thier resume to a
prospective employer, someone on the receiving
end painstakingly reviews the whole document.
After all, you spent hours and hours writing your
resume and putting that thing together. The
reality to far different. Chances are your
resume will only be given a cursory glance, so
you need to make it count. How do resume writers
produce a resume that stands out? Lets take a
look at how to be a resume writer who has the
keys to succeed.

Brief is Best
Try to keep your resume as brief as possible.
Reading your resume should be like watching the
highlights of a football match. You get a
summary of the whole game in less than a minute.
If it doesnt fit on one or (at most) two pages,
then forget it. Resume writers should focus on
the most interesting and relevant bits. Also,
give more space to your current or recent jobs,
and less to the past. Include the things that
are most relevant to the job application you are
applying for. With this in mind
5
Ditch the Unnecessary Information
A resume writer does not need to include your
age, marital status, religion or nationality.
This might have been the standard in the past,
but it is now illegal for your employer to ask
you this information so there's no need to
include it. As a resume writer you should focus
on the skills and qualifications that make you a
good fit for this position. It might be really
interesting that you have a Certificate 4 in
Hairdressing, but is that going to help you land
that accountancy position you want?

Employers want a Resume they can Scan
Lay-out and formatting of resume writing is also
super important. Given that most employers will
merely peruse your work, looking for key words,
job titles and major facts that show you are a
good fit for the position, it needs to be laid
out well. Resume writing should use simple text
in one modern, standard font that is easy to
read, and that everyone can understand.

Professional stands out
If you are still using your original Hotmail
account from the 1990s, it might be time to
consider getting a new email address for the
purpose of your job applications. Sure,
fairytwinkletoes_at_hotmail.com was a hilarious
email address back in the day, but now it makes
you look like youre stuck in a time warp. In
fact, anything that makes your resume look dated
and unprofessional erodes your chances of landing
the job. This include poor spelling, grammar and
punctuation, so check your work twice and then
get a friend to check it, and then check it
again!
