What are the attributes of a professional
attention grabbing resume?
1. It must first be subjected to adequate planning:
● Planning ahead of writing your professional resume eases the task several times over and
also makes writing your ads copy smoother.
● To initiate the planning, you must first ask yourself this question: “What sets me apart as
an exceptional or perfect candidate as opposed to merely a good one?”
● In answering this question you should be clear about what the job offer is looking for and
what you possess as a candidate to satisfy the need of that employer.
● You need to read the advert of the vacant position thoroughly and understand it.
● You should then try linking your key skills and attributes which you have listed on the
sheet of paper with real life achievements.

2. It must provide information relevant to the job on offer:
● The information to include when writing a professional resume depends on how
well you have researched and prepared ahead of actual writing.
● The information in your attention grabbing resume should be tailored to meet the
needs of each employer.
● Such information you must have gathered at the planning stage and written on a
piece of paper are the ones you will then use this in preparing the curriculum
vitae.
● If for example, the job advert states that they require job seekers with specific
skills and attributes, craft your resume to fit that requirement.
● Your relevant information should therefore include - clear and accurate contact
information, the objective for preparing your curriculum vitae, a brief summary of
your resume, educational and professional qualifications, skills and achievements
and of course your personal profile.

3. The resume must pass the fitness test of a checklist:
● The application of the checklist to your resume is to make communication of what
you have in it more concise and in the end to reach your goal of being invited for
an interview more comfortable.
● Tactically, applying a checklist makes writing a professional resume clear, logical
and more economical .
● The use of the checklist also sends some messages to recruiters. One is that you
are an organized person. Two being that you have taken extra pain to compose
your resume and by doing that having given more than cursory attention to their
requirements and consequently added more value.
● The checklist must include the following: initial impression, appearance,
proofreading and use of resume samples, relevance and getting a second opinion.

4. Your resume must be reliable:
● Why should your curriculum vitae be reliable?
● Firstly false curriculum vitae are embarrassment or dismissal waiting to happen in
the future because one way or the other, your false claim will be found out.
● Secondly, lying in your resume is a very daft thing to do because the truth will
eventually come out if not during interview sessions it could be after references
might have been sent out to confirm the veracity of the claims in the CV.
● It is therefore sensible to present facts as they are because research has shown that
85% of employers seek references to confirm the veracity of resume claims.

● What kind of resume will therefore take you closer to your next
interview:
● A professionally crafted resume that passes the above mentioned fitness test of
adequate planning, provision of adequate information, passing through a checklist
and reliability will certainly move you the job seeker closer to your next interview
which is the objective of resumes.
● A professional resume is better prepared by a professional writer with the
knowledge and know how. However, it something an average job seeker can
prepare too if there is the zeal. It even makes it more personal.
