Writing a Resume:
At the
outset use the creation of your resume as a means of clarifying your
goals and defining the direction you wish to take. Take advantage of
the opportunity to improve your self-knowledge.
Do present
your good, qualities, advertising sells people as well as underarm
deodorants, but never give in to the temptation to exaggerate and
embellish your abilities and skills.
Make your
resume stand out from the others. Get noticed by producing a well
written, aesthetically attractive document. Do not use inferior quality
or flimsy paper. Not too many fonts and colors.
Research
the company, find out as much as possible about the company and why
they need a new employee. You will be at an advantage over the other
candidates if you can clearly show that you understand something of
what is expected of you in the new job.
