THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE 10 -PAGERS HOW TO MAKE ANY RESUME BETTER Candace Moody, Work. Source JACKSONVILLE

GOOD RESUMES… • Are easy on the eyes and easy to read • Present information so recruiters can find it quickly • Highlight important information and experience • Tell a good story • Don’t make any mistakes

BAD RESUMES… • • • Give recruiters a reason to screen them out Contradict the candidate’s experience or skills Draw attention to gaps in experience or skills Are exhausting to read and make information hard to find Arrive naked, with no context

RESUME FORMATS • • Chronological Functional C. V. Electronic

THE FULL MONTY • All your experience with dates • List of Company supervisors, addresses, contacts • Awards and honors • Articles, publications, speaking engagements • History of community service

WASTED SPACE • References Available Upon Request • Salary Negotiable • Responsible for… • Experience in… • Detail-oriented • Hard working • Team player • Your Objective

HOW TO BUILD A RESUME • Start with the Objective; but use the Career Summary to head up the document • Build the infrastructure; what sections go where, and why? • Re-weight skills to support the objective • Write lean and clean and build your case to support the objective • Focus on the jobseeker’s brand the employer’s requirements

TIPS FROM MASTER RESUME WRITERS • There are no rules, but there are some things that work better than others • Go light on job duties; an accountant is an accountant • Use a summary instead of an objective 95 per cent of the time • Load your resume with key words • Include live links

STUPID RESUME TRICKS • • Too many words – it’s hard to edit yourself Too much formatting – hard to read and hard to scan Bad Objectives or Summaries Listing personal qualities that no one can verify Outdated education or industry jargon Tiny typos that could be prevented Generalized format that doesn’t match the target Cover letters that sell too much or too little

HOW TO MAKE A GOOD RESUME GREAT • Consolidate by listing only relevant experience • Make the transition from listing job duties to listing accomplishments • Quantify whenever possible • Rev up the professional summary with real substance • Load up on key words for the industry • Create several versions of the document for different audiences
