Format to get noticed!

How do I format my resume for the most impact and get it noticed?

Consider the reader of your resume and subscribe to this concept:
When recruiters are reviewing your resume, they are reading their job description and not your resume. Plan accordingly by mirroring the job description, honestly, so the reader can clearly see that you are a match!

7Solutions to consider!

  1. Use bullets to identify widely recognized tools and skills.
  2. Use your bullet items on the first page of your resume if possible.
  3. Limit or refrain from using paragraphs.
  4. Focus your resume veribage toward the key words in the job description.
  5. Mainstream your job titles so they can be clearly understood.
  6. Identify each previous and current employer's industry.
  7. The reason to submit is for the job not just to submit your resume. Modify your resume to speak to the job description.
