Resume Writing Secrets
by Ron G. Dickinson
Even if you're the best candidate, you'll never get a chance to show that if you don't have a good resume.
Your resume should be designed to show off your skills, experience and qualifications. In fact any information that is related to the job which you are going for. It is also well worth including any awards or successes in your particular field.
I should mention that there are a several things that most employers really dislike seeing on a resume. Most people believe that interviewers don't read all of a resume. I'll tell you a secret - they actually do! Here are a few of the things that should be avoided at all costs on your resume.
* Hiding or not including vital information on a resume is like death. A recruiter needs to see all of your important information without having to search for it.
* Adding unnecessary information on a resume like your hobbies is completely useless. You should save that section to describe any accomplishments that you have made in your field.
* Avoid writing your resume as a narrative or in the first or third person. It is really irritating for a recruiter, and comes off as arrogant and/or egotistical.
* If your resume is more than two pages long, it will not be fully read by an employer. They are busy people and it's just the way it is.
* Lying or putting misleading information on your resume is a major no-no. There are always ways for a recruiter to check up on you and many do, so don't lie. Getting caught in a lie on a resume just says that you can't be trusted.
