The resume is generally the first thing a potential employ will see so it is extremely important to make a good impression.
All good resumes should include you name and contact details at the top. Is your name William but your friends know you as "Dirtman"? By all means include this information. Employers like to get a sense of "the real you" when they read your re
sume.
Next should be your objective. What do you hope to accomplish with this resume. You might ask, "What if the job I'm applying for is an unpaid entry level internship but what I'd REALLY like to do is have the job of the person interviewing me?" Go for it! Employers love ambition and drive.
Your education and work experience should be next. Education is fairly self-explanatory. This should list your college and graduation year as well as your major and GPA. Your experience should include all jobs and give a brief description of what your responsibilities were. If you really want to impress your future employer, go a step further and give a reason for why you left each job. This will help the interviewer realize that you were way to good for any of your previous jobs and reaffirm that their company is where you shou
ld be working.
Finally, include any and all certifications as well as any relevant computer skills. This will further help your future employer to connect with you and start planning what position you will play on the company softball team.
With the proper resume there should really be no need for an interview. By following the steps above you can ensure you will land the job of your dreams every time! Please refer to the sample resume below.
