For Managers, Directors & Members of the Management Board.
The structure of the traditional CV has changed over the last 10 years. On top of that, there is a difference between the CV of a student and the one of an executive. What often happens is that instead of completely re-doing their CV, top managers simply keep adding to their "student-versions". The result: a hybrid CV that is not worthy of the 21st century.
It’s important to realize that your resume is not only a marketing tool, but a tool that needs to be marketable. In other words, it’s critical to ensure that you have just the right kind of resume with the right format and right mix of words to make a mark in the short 5-7 seconds you get. We’ve made an infographic to show you the importance of a marketable resume:
http://www.resumeshoppe.com/resume-format-for-freshers/
Hiring managers tend to spend between 10 and 20 seconds looking at the average resume! It is crucial that your resume is effective, focused, well formatted so that it creates a strong first impression and stands out from the pile. While a resume itself may not secure you a job, it is the key to getting that first interview.

41. ACTION
Writing your career objective
Pros:
Tailormade for each job you apply
Clear, concise, could save time
Cons:
Self-serving, vague, dreadfully written, meaningless
42. Be specific but not limiting
"To manage people, interface with customers, and work with
highly technical software or hardware applications."
This objective could apply to many different jobs,
yet the skills described are quite specific.
43. The bottom line
• Objectives should reflect the employer's perspective
not the jobseeker's, and should tell what
the jobseeker can contribute.
• An objective should demonstrate
the value the candidate will add to the organization.
• Objectives may help sharpen the focus of your Resume
(especially if your experience is very diverse or
if you are switching into a career not supported by the
experience listed on your Resume)
44. Spotlighting Skills
Trend:
jobseekers replacing their objectives with a section called
"Summary," "Skills Summary" "Qualifications" or
"Profile“
Advantages:
+ can be quite appealing to employers
+ + keywords used in such sections
can be an important element
when a Resume is electronically scanned
45. GENERAL WRITING TIPS
• Use the active voice with verbs
Indicates you are in charge:
“Represented firm at international symposium.”
Achievement statement:
“Handled all client correspondence.”
• Don‟t get caught in the passive voice trap
Writing as if something happened to you:
“Was sent to Argentina to represent the firm.“
• Don‟t refer to yourself as a subject (first or third
person) in a Resume
“I helped prepare financial data for Accounts department…”
“Applicant wrote outreach letters to prospective clients.”
47. GENERAL TIPS CONTINUED
• Be consistent in your spelling (UK or US)
• Use good language skills and good prose
(language that resembles every day speech)
• Avoid repetition!
48. Resume
Do‟s

reader to get information quickly and with minimal
effort

statements
