Curriculum Vitae Tips |
You will find lots of free resume writing tips and advice
on our site. Your resume is a very important document; with it rest your
hopes and dreams.
These days employers often receive a lot of resumes for each advertised
position - jobs advertised in national papers can often attract hundreds
of applicants. So your resume has to be just that little bit special to
stand out if you want to obtain interviews. The good news (for you) is that
most people do not know how to write a resume and only spend a short time
preparing a resume. Writing professional resumes is a skill, which these
people have not learnt.
Of course your resume can continue to work in your favor even after it has
obtained an interview for you. It can help you at an interview by carefully
focusing the interviewer's mind on your good points and on your achievements.
Once you have left the interview it will continue to work in your favor
as the interviewer will probably reread it before making a decision, either
on who should be invited to the second interview stage or who the job should
be offered to.
When it comes to salary negotiations a well written resume can help. If
your resume conveys your full worth you are likely to get a higher salary
offer than you might have done with a poorer resume. So do not skimp
on the time you spend on writing a resume as it will probably be a false
economy.
In the following sections, we will teach you how to write professional resumes
