If you're going
to use a resume writer, consider
looking for some of these traits:
* Experience either working
in your field or helping a considerable
number of people in your field
with their resumes.
* Experience working as a recruiter.
* Experience working as a manager
who made hiring decisions.
After creating the perfect resume,
you then need to distribute
it. You'll likely be sending
some professionally printed
hard copies, especially to "A
list" companies or organizations
you've set your sights on. But
just as likely, you'll be distributing
other copies electronically.
Your resume must be :
1.Searchable:
Someone searching the Internet
resume banks for the perfect
candidate (you) needs to be
able to weed out all the unqualified
candidates, which potentially
number in the tens of thousands
nowadays. Typically, they'll
enter search terms intended
to
eliminate the vast majority
of posted resumes and select
the most promising.
However, if you have technical
qualifications that can be searched
in different ways - "Bachelor
of Science" and "B.Sc." for
example, your resume should
use both variants so that a
search engine finds you either
way. And if you possess job
experience that's highly relevant
to the job in question, be sure
to describe it in the most common
ways that it would likely be
searched on.
2. ASCII Format:
You’re professionally laid out
and formatted paper resume may
end up looking like gibberish
if simply transformed into an
electronic copy. Programs like
Word allow you to format nice
looking documents with features
such as tabs, bullets, centering,
bold, italic and other word
processing niceties. Unfortunately,
when converted to electronic
form, many of these word processing
features are lost. Worse, what's
left over may bear no resemblance
to the exquisite resume that
you labored over to produce.
To avoid such problems use a
program specifically designed
for writing resumes like Win
Way Resume Express. It features
an easy way to transform your
resume into a searchable electronic
version with very little effort
after you've created the word
processing formatted version.
