HOW TO WRITE
A RESUME

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
What is a Resume
A resume - sometimes called a curriculum vitae or CV
is a summary of your education, training, work
experience and skills. A good resume demonstrates
how your skills and abilities match up with the
requirements of a job.

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
How Long Should a Resume Be?

A resume isn't an exhaustive list.
. The best resumes are usually no longer
than one or two pages.
If you've just left high school - whether you finished or
not - a one-page resume is perfectly reasonable.
If you're at university, or you've finished university ,
you've probably
got enough experience to fill two pages.
Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
How Long Should a Resume Be?

The worst thing to do is to pad out your
resume. There's
nothing wrong with a one-page resume, as
long as it has
all of the relevant information on it. More is
not necessarily
better.

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Do I Need to Change My
Resume Every Time?
Yes

The point of a resume is to convince a recruiter or
employer you're worth interviewing. A tailored resume
makes that case better than a generic one, so it's worth
the extra time.

How to Tailor Your Resume

First, find out what the job requires
There may also be a position
description, which is a document that outlines exactly
what
kind of skills and experience a job requires.

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
How to Tailor Your Resume
you need more information you can always contact the
recruiter or employer and ask them. There should be a
phone number or email address either on their website
or the job listing.
•What can you tell me about the job?
•What can you tell me about the ideal candidate for the job?
•Is there a position description that I can look at? (only ask this if
the job ad didn't mention a position description)
•Are you expecting any internal applicants? (If they are, you could
ask them if they think the internal applicant(s) are well suited to
the role)
Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
How to Tailor Your Resume

Be polite and introduce yourself when you make contact.
Showing you have the initiative and ability to research
the
job can make a good impression.
.

Ways You Can Meet a Job's
Requirements
Things like your academic record and work experience
can show how suited you are to a particular job, but
these aren't the only things you can include. Other things
that can demonstrate your abilities
That includes everything ……

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
What You Should
Definitely Include on
Your Resume

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Personal Details

Put your full name and contact details on your resume, including
your address, telephone number(s) and email address. Make sure
you use a professional-sounding email address
The best place to put personal details is in the header of your
resume. That way it will appear on every page. This will also leave
room for (and focus attention on) the most important stuff: proof
you have the skills and experience for the job.

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Education and Training

If you haven't done much study or training, just put down
what you have done. Don't pad things out with things like
First Aid or Responsible Service of Alcohol, unless
they're relevant to the job you're applying for. More is not
always better

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Employment History

The name of the employer
Your job title
The dates you worked there
Your duties and responsibilities
Any major achievements while you worked there
Make sure that each job that you list demonstrates how
well you are suited for the job you're applying for.
Emphasize the skills that are asked for by the recruiter
or employer.
Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Page Numbers

Make sure your resume has page numbers on it,
even if it's just one page. Page numbers on a
one-page resume make sure the recruiter or
employer knows they're looking at the whole thing

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Professional Profile
A professional profile directly links the job's
requirements to your skills. It's kind of like a minicover letter, designed to grab a recruiter or
employer's attention and encourage them to read
on. Some recruiters may jump straight to
resumes without reading cover letters,. A
professional profile can help to grab their
attention right at the start.
Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Career Objective
Career objective statements are a general
statement about your career goals. They don't
really help to prove you're a good choice for the
job. They risk distracting from the important
information on your resume

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Referees (or Written
References)
It is no longer standard practice to provide
referees or written references as part of a job
application. You should still find some people to
be your referee, but you don't need to include
their details on your resume. Instead, simply end
your resume with a brief statement along the lines
of "References can be supplied upon request."
Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
What You Should
NOT Include on Your
Resume

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
What not to include
Here are a few things that you don't have to
include on your resume, although there are some
circumstances when including some of the
following information might be a good idea.

Other Personal Information

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
What not to include

This means that you don't have to provide:
Your date of birth
Your marital status
Your gender
Any languages you speak
Any disabilities that you have
Any other personal information

Visiontux Innovations , Lissie junction , Ernakulum
Be what you are

Be creative
Be outstanding
And as always be to the point
Create an awesome resume
