- 2. The Right Way to Do a Resume • Varying opinions • Should mirror job description • Incorporate key words (most are action verbs) • Should be accomplishments based rather than a list of duties • Don’t say: Duties included... • Don’t say: Responsible for... • Instead use action verb phrases • Quantify whenever possible
- 3. Content and Layout • Focus on content first • Always have a one page version • Multiple pages okay unless job description specifies “one page only” • Consider your audience • Emphasize skills and experience • Graphics can be incorporated but keep it conservative • Feel free to be creative • If submitting in person, use resume paper • 10-12 font • .5 to 1.0 inch margins
- 4. The Basics • Name and contact information • Can include LinkedIn address • Can include link to professional portfolio • Objective • Summary or Profile • Education • Degrees • Study abroad • Student teaching • Work experience
- 5. Other Categories • Certification/licensure status • Internships • Professional affiliations/memberships • Work experience (education) • Work experience (other) • Academic honors and awards • Technology experience • Teaching philosophy • Testimonials • Philosophical quotes • Committee work, leadership, extracurriculars • Community service • Conferences and presentations
- 6. Employer Tips • Education section: “Expected.......” • Objective: be specific; what do you have to offer • Languages: don’t hide them at the bottom • Grab their attention at the top of the page • If you have a multi-page resume, put important information on page 1 • Make it easy to read; imagine employer with hundreds of resumes • Employers create stacks: yes, maybe, no
- 7. Cover Letters & References • Separate page for cover letter • Separate page for references • Remember that resume, cover letter, references are part of an application with other submissions • In cover letter they are evaluating your writingddd • In cover letter you should be unique from other applicants
