Writing a Winning Resume
for Senior Job-Seekers
Resumes are usually
discarded in less than 10 seconds. Given the amount of resumes
that most HR departments receive, they can only devote a few
moments to review and discard resumes they consider inappropriate
for the position or company. Ageism could seriously damage
you during this step of your job-search, depriving you of
a legitimate chance to land an interview.
To avoid this situation, there are several
considerations you should keep in mind while writing your
senior resume:
-
Not to list everything from your career
information database, but only the last 10 or 15 years.
-
List in your resume the most recent
and high-level positions; doing that, you are not
lying by omission but making a truly relevant
and brief resume.
-
Write a powerful resume
profile. This is a hard-hitting opening statement,
packed with your most impressive skills, abilities, personal
attributes and accomplishments. Its goal is to grab the
employer's attention and make sure he or she reads the
rest. Consider it as an ad for your resume. EasyJob
Resume Builder provides you with examples
and resume wording samples. Note that these resume
summaries, together with your achievements, are the most
crucial sections of a winning resume for senior job-seekers.
-
Remember to cite achievements
for each one of the positions you list, since they are
extremely important in your case. Your accomplishments
for previous employers are the most convincing reasons
to hire you. These aren't promises. They are facts.
-
Eliminate old dates from your educational
credentials; the institution attended and degree awarded
are sufficient
In a nutshell: your knowledge,
years of experience and achievements are a terrific asset
and your senior resume
must present them in a sharp, focused, assertive and pro-active
way. Your have strong 'selling points', take advantage of
them building a correct resume for senior
professionals.
