How to write a standout resume.
Contact Details Include your full name, home address and a contact phone number. You may include an email address or your license status if relevant.  Make sure to keep this information updated. Do not include your birth date, height or weight measurements, marital status,  political or religious beliefs unless it is a specific requirement of the job application.
Career Objectives This section is optional, however it demonstrates that your resume has been tailored for the particular job. This is a short paragraph that expresses to the employer what position you are seeking and why, highlighting your personal strengths.
Skills and Abilities  This is a brief outline of your skills which are relevant to the job your are applying for. Example: When applying for a position in an office, state if you are computer literate, typing level, filling experience.  You may also include a short sentence that highlights your key qualities. Example: highly motivated, team player, leader.
Skills and Abilities This follows on from the previous paragraph, but in much greater detail.  Highlight specific skills you have with different programs or in certain situations that have arisen. It is here that you strive to convince your employer that you are competent and are suited for the position. These should be short, sharp sentences in bullet points.
Education State your most recent educational qualification. Include the name of the  institute and the year you graduated.  Include any subjects you have studied that are relevant to the position.
Work History This is where you illustrate the previous positions you’ve held. Include full-time, part-time, casual, temporary, volunteer and work experience jobs.  Include the name of  the place of employment, your title/position, dates signifying your commencement and departure and up to five of your key responsibilities.
Hobbies and Interests This section should not be underestimated. It helps the employer construct a mental image of you and gives them a chance to learn more about you. While these are your personal interests, keep in mind that it is still a professional document that will be viewed by a potential employer.  Include interests that are relevant to the position, any extracurricular activities you are involved in, sporting clubs or individual pursuits.
Referees Make sure that the referees you use are of authority. Example: University lecturer, careers counsellor or previous employers. Ensure that you have asked the referees for permission to use them and that their contact information is up to date.  Include their full name, title/position, place of employment and a contact phone number.

While these are your personal interests, keep in mind that it is still a professional document that will be viewed by a potential employer. Include interests that are relevant to the position, any extracurricular activities you are involved in, sporting clubs or individual pursuits.
  • 9. Referees Make sure that the referees you use are of authority. Example: University lecturer, careers counsellor or previous employers. Ensure that you have asked the referees for permission to use them and that their contact information is up to date. Include their full name, title/position, place of employment and a contact phone number.
