Transcription de la présentation

  1. Resume Writing

  2. Why do I need a resume? • A resume is your self-marketing tool. It demonstrates focus and highlights abilities/accomplishments along your career path. • A resume gets your foot in the door by highlighting your strong points.

  3. How do I get started? • Make a list of your work history, education and skills • Write down a brief job description for each of your last 3 or 4 jobs

  4. Common Resume Sections • Personal Heading • Objective • Summary or Highlights of Qualifications • Work History • Education

  5. Personal Heading • Name, address, phone and email address. • Joe Jobhunter • 221 Opportunity Street • Appleton, WI 55555 • (920) 888-8888

  6. Objective • Maybe better left for cover letter • Be specific • Do not use empty fluff statements like “A challenging position in a growing company that uses my skills and abilities.” • A good example might be: “To obtain a position as a tax accountant with XYZ Corporation.”

  7. Summary or Highlights of Qualifications • Somehow summarize your best skills • Sum-up what you’re all about • Example: “Communications professional with 15 years of experience in public relations and journalism. Recognized for award-winning coverage of breaking news. Skills include strong/concise writing, research and meeting tight deadlines.”

  8. Work History • Start with your most recent employment • List name of company, your title and dates • Explain duties and accomplishments • Begin bullet points with action verbs • “Supervised and trained staff of 7”

  9. Education • List most recent education first • Since you are still in high school, for dates put: “Anticipated Graduation 2014”

  10. Resume Writing Tips • Proof read. Do not have any errors. • Have your resume read like a road map. Use a consistent format with bolds and underlines. • Do not list personal information like hobbies and interests. • Do not list your references. They belong on a separate sheet presented at an interview.

  11. Resume Writing Tips continued • Do not list addresses and phones numbers • Do not list names of supervisors • Use resume quality paper: cream, white or grey • Always send a cover letter with your resume

  12. Be creative • One size does not fit all. Different professions require different things. • Whatever format you settle on, make sure your resume is a reflection of the quality you have to offer a perspective employer. • You may need to tweak your resume every time you send it out. • Have fun!!
