Think How To Sell Your Resume



The resume should be such that the recruiter would like to "buy" it. For a recruiter, a resume is one of the main tools of his work. You, of course, do not care what interface the programs have or the design of the sites you work with. You will avoid interfaces that you don't like. The same thing happens with a recruiter: if he does not like the interface of your resume, the desire to work with your resume with a recruiter is lower.

An experienced recruiter, if he likes filling your resume, will redo the resume and make it more selling, but this is more an exception than a rule. The next person to watch your resume after the recruiter will be the hiring manager. Thus, a resume undergoes a double and sometimes triple test. I want to read a good resume completely and re-read it again.

Each phrase in the resume strengthens the desire to buy it. It has a very simple and intuitive navigation (sections). In addition, the resume must comply with generally accepted standards. Therefore, if you are not a designer and not a representative of the creative profession, no background pictures in the resume. Use only business spoken language I always pay very much attention to the language of the resume. A resume should consist of simple words and phrases, there should be no formalism (the very words copied from your job description), your phrases should be written by you personally, and not copied from the Internet. All sentences should be short enough, without complex and complex structures. In this sense, I really like Norah Gal’s book, The Word Alive and Dead. Here are a few quotes that apply to your
