There are plenty of books and websites with advice on this subject. I’ve reviewed thousands of resumes during my career and due to the amount of my career that has been spent in marketing, I take a special interest in the art form of resume writing. So I wrote a series of blog posts on the topic. I can’t guarantee it will get you a job but I can practically guarantee that you’ll find some ideas to improve your resume.
Here’s the make up of this blog post series:
- Formatting
- The “Objective” Statement
- Skills Summary Section
- The “So What” Rule
- Education versus Work Experience
- Word Selection
- The Quick Glance Test
- Upper Management Positions
- The Post-Interview Audit
- Optimizing for Search Tools
