Tips for writing a resume?

We Answered:

For resumes you don't start out with "Dear Sir/Madam" because that's for cover letters.

On the top of the page it's usually your name, address, phone #, email. the rest can go by:

- Objective (To seek employment in ----- )
- Skills/Qualifications
- Work Experience
- Volunteer Experience
- School you're attending
- Any other accomplishments you feel you should mention... ie. awarded/received special certificates for a sport or activity

Hope this helps. If you have no idea what you want your resume to look like, you can search online for sample resume formats and get some ideas from there. There are lots.

16 year old in grade 11 writing first resume. Tips?

We Answered:

make sure the words you use are not from the word list you use when you are talking to your friends.. use high elevated words.. make sure you list every single detail of what you've done in your past jobs..
say you worked as a sales associate.. you would just say that you helped out the customers if one of your friends had asked you what you did there.. but for the resume you should put things like
"Sales Associate
Greeted walk-in customers with a smile, processed phone orders, and entered sales data into cash register, reduced check out times and increased sales
Resolved customer complaints in a professional manner ensuring customer satisfaction
Maintained attractive display and cleanliness of the store"

see thats how you should write your resume.. gud luck with that.. :) hope that helped you.. :D

Carolyn Said:

give me nice tips on writing a resume?

We Answered:

First and foremost understand the RESUME is mirror of what you are to the prospective employer.
It needs to be impressive enough to sustain the attention and interest of the reader.
Slogans or tag lines wont help in a Resume. These things make the Resume Jazzy, and gives an impression of mis-leading the reader.

Here are a Few Tips:

Keep it simple and neat FONT. ( Times New Roman- 12 is advisable)

The resume should not exceed 2 pages. ( unless u have a huge set of work-ex wherein a 3rd page needs to be included)

Follow a desending order pattern, where the latest achievements are mentioned at the top and then go down the line.

For Eg:
Latest Work Experience
Acedemic Qualifications
PG
Graduation
10+2
10
Additional Qualificaions, if any

Keep a check on Grammar and spellings. These things matter the most. A single spelling or grammar error can spoil the show.

A Resume well filed with a transparent folder gives a good impression.

Good Luck and All the Best~
