how do u write a RESUME??? what do u put in it? 10 points?

We Answered:

resume includes:

- job / company you applying to
- contact info
- education
- work experience / skills
- job history
- references

cover letter should have 3 parts: the intro, body, and conclusion

the intro usually focuses on your education (your university and major), what position you are applying for, how you found out about the company, and some other stuff.

the body tells them why you should get the job. Why should I be picked from the others? How am I qualified for this job? Skills? Experience?

the conclusion.. a strong point of why you should be picked for the job.. request an interview.. leave contact info.. thank them.

Hi,
Writing a resume can be easy if you are fluent in the language you are writing it in. When you write a resume, use the setup below.

1) List your Career Objective. (3 sentences should be enough)

2) List your experience (list where you recently worked on the top. Basically order it from recent to furthest). For each work experience explain what you did briefly, what you learned about yourself and how your work benefited the company. For example you can tell, the company saved thousands because of your intense calculation and budget optimizer.

3) Next list your education. List the highest degree to the least.

4) List any awards or recognition you may have gotten.

5) List any publications you may have. (e.g books, articles or editorials)

You can also use a resume builder to write your resume. Try out the ResumeMaker by www.resumemaker.com. Their step by step resume builder really works and it tailors down to your specific career.

How do u write a good resume?

We Answered:

When you begin to think about how to write your resume, think about how you can sell the most important product, YOU. The goal is to identify how to make a powerful impression in approximately 1 page. When you write your resume, you want to stand out from all the other pieces of papers, resumes the company has received. You want the company to find a way to visualize you and your qualifications, educations and experience through a piece of paper. In some ways less is more, but more accurately stated, a resume must be CONCISE and POWERFUL.

First, you will clearly state who you are. Your name, address, phone and email should be included at the top of your resume. Remember that your name is more important than your other identifiers at this stage. Make your name lager in font or change color from address. You will want your name to stand out over your address, etc. If the company does not know your name, you will not be getting a call, letter or email.

Next, when you write your resume, you will want a summary of your qualifications or a list of core competencies. This list should have 4 or 5 key competencies. Examples would be: excellent communication skills, supervisory skills, accomplished resource for others, etc. This is the place where you will make it or break it with the company you are seeking employment. Make this section fantastic.

Next is your education. Be concise about school name, year and degree obtained. If you had any special academic awards, add them here.

The section on credentials is important if the position you are applying for requires certification or licenses.

The next section is also very important. When you write your resume, focus on how to best describe your experience history. Your potential employer will want to be able to understand your responsibilities quickly. Use of bullet points is necessary to draw attention to an articulate description of your responsibilities. Identify how to write your experience in powerful words. List responsibilities you have experienced in words that demonstrate your knowledge and competency in these areas.

Other accomplishments: If you have any other information, jobs, publications, honors, affiliations with career groups, etc. Place them in this section.

References: This is highly debatable. Many resume companies state that this does not have to be included. Prepare your reference page to include current supervisor and professional references. Include their title and phone number. It does not hurt to include it, even if it is not required at the beginning stages. Companies can not contact your references without your permission. You can rest that your resume had been complete.

Remember to check that your bullet points are included and that your wording is powerful and accurate. You are sending everything you worked for in a piece of paper. Your goal on your resume is to allow the employer to develop a picture of you on that resume.

Spell check and edit your resume several times. Have friends and family review your resume. Take their feedback. You can also submit to a professional site for review. There are a few that will do it for free, others have a charge.

how do u write a resume? what do you put it in?

Besides setting all margins to 1", the most important criteria for setting up a professional resume besides relevant text, is "scanability." Here are some helpful tips:

1. Place just below your identification header [your hame, address, phone, email address] any Conditional Warning Statement such as "Confidential Resume,"Do Not Contact Current Employer," etc.
2. Always fill-in an Objectives category [just below the Conditional Warning Statement] and make sure that he Objective will contribute to the profitability of your future employer;
3. Select a mono-type font such as Helvetica, Arial, Courier or Times Roman; do not select any cursive handwriting styles which cannot scanned;
4. Keep font sizes within a range of 10 to 12 pts.;
5. Avoid styling text with a justified alignment, keep it flushed left;
6. Instead of using tabs to set up blocked text entries, generate a table and use the column and row settings accordingly;
7. Do not place an i.d. picture anywhere on the resume, this is a major taboo due to discrimination issues;
8. Do not place any graphic text [saved as .gifs] onto the resume since it may be overlooked during the scanning phase;
9. List at the very end of the resume your interests which should include travel experiences, language skills, social interactions such as golf, team sports, tennis, etc.

In conclusion, the above helpful hints were designed to allow ease of scanning of your resume into PDF which can then be text captured for seach purposes by your potential employer. If the original resume was created in Word, WordPerfect or Mac Appleworks, it can be Saved As a PDF file which then can be saved as an email attachment. Otherwise, you can simply use a scanner and scan a hard copy of the resume and then save as a PDF file.

Failure to conform the resume to appropriate fonts and styles as outlined above will result in rejection of the resume simply due to the inability of the scanning device to properly index relevant resume entries.

Good luck!
