Golden Job

It's all about Job and Career!

• When writing your resume you must first decide what it is you want to tell the reader of the resume. You must understand that the reader is looking for information on your education and skill. The reader should not have to surf through the resume looking for the information. It should pop right out at him or her.

• Never resort to the use of Jargon in your resume. Slang is a big no-no when it comes to presenting your services to a prospective employer through a resume or in the course of an interview. Stick to being absolutely formal.

• If you are not applying for a technical post, avoid using technical terminology like the plague.

• Remember that you are making a resume and not a bio-data. So never include information such as the color of your eyes, hair and your height.

• Include only the education, training and experience that are relevant to the job profile you are applying for. Never detail your entire work history from jobs that is not relevant to the post you are applying for. Include an abbreviated list of the responsibilities you shouldered but do not go into detail.

• Stick to facts when making out your resume. Never try to over sell yourself as this may backfire during the course of the interview.

• Never fill your resume with graphics. In fact, never include graphics in your resume apart from a simple snap-shot of yourself shoulders up and do not wear dark glasses when getting your photograph taken.

• Lastly check the resume for spelling and grammatical errors. One error and your resume may just be thrown into the waste basket.

When you adhere to the above mentioned tips while making your resume even an automated system will produce a professionally written resume that can clinch the best job interviews for you.
