| Writing an attention-getting,
winning resume is not difficult provided that you have the
advice of a professional resume writer, before, during and
after the process of creating your resume and cover letter.
These instructions and resume
writing tips will help you write a winning resume.
At the very start, in a step-by-step process, preferably
using index cards, you should take notes of:
1.- Your education
including degree or certificates, major and minor courses.
Because of education is nowadays of paramount importance
in getting a high-paying job, you must record your educational
achievements in both secondary and higher education, as well
as any other type of training courses you have taken.
EasyJob's resume
templates will show you where to place your educational
achievements, according to the job-search situation you select
(looking for the first job, erratic or short work history,
over-50 job seeker, etc).
2.- Your work
experience, paid and unpaid, full time and part time.
List all of your work experiences, job by job, progressing
backwards in time. Use an index card for each job.
Identify skills you acquired
by your participation in those experiences and label skills
according to the skills headings used in want ads and job
descriptions.
Describe your duties and, most important, detail your achievements
in an impressive way.
From the notes, choose which skills are transferable to the
job you are applying for.
3.- Your other skills, such as languages spoken,
computer programming knowledge etc.
Write down all your other skills as well as the proficiency
level.
4.- Order cards by skill headings.
In this way, similar experiences will come together naturally,
and their inclusion or exclusion in the resume will be easier.
5.- Write a short summary of qualifications
This is the most decisive section of your resume. The Profile,
also called Summary of Qualifications or Overview, should
reflect all your professional qualifications, areas of expertise,
skills, and personal conditions.
Emphasize those qualifications that best match the requirements
of your prospective employers. In writing the Profile
text, use short and concise phrases, presenting the best of
your education and professional life.
Now, with all this information at hand, you are ready to
type your resume.
