Landing Your Dream Job
When considering the best way to write your resume, there are
many things you can do to help you land your dream job. This can
include anything from using the correct type of paper to using
the correct words and phrases. This article will provide resume
tips for landing your dream job.
TIP # 1: Your resume should be neat and tidy without spelling
errors.
This is an important resume tip that everyone should adopt. Even
though it might seem like common sense, many people still submit
resumes containing smudges, dirty fingerprints, or grease
stains. Employers have been known to receive resumes containing
common spelling mistakes. Even if you are not great at spelling,
you should run the spell checker for your word processing
program, before submitting your resume.
TIP # 2: The resume should be typed and printed on quality
computer paper.
This second resume tip can also help you to land your dream job.
The resume should never be handwritten. It must always be typed,
even if this means using an old typewriter to accomplish this.
Submitting a handwritten resume is very unprofessional. Also, it
is a good idea to use quality computer paper to print your
resume. Using scented paper or multicolored writing paper with
designs is viewed as unprofessional. This will create a bad
impression with most employers. This is not the time to pull out
your leftover funny, fancy or
frilly stationary. Plain paper or
understated letterhead is best in this situation.
TIP # 3: Construct a draft resume first.
It is a good idea to first review what qualifications the
employer is looking for exactly, and then construct your resume
to illustrate this. For example, if the employer would like to
hire someone with extensive marketing experience, your resume
should highlight your previous employment in which marketing was
one of your responsibilities.
TIP # 4: Ask a friend's opinion
After you have written your draft resume, it is a good idea to
ask a friend or associate's opinion. You should ask a person who
has experience writing resumes and hiring people, or one who has
been successful at getting hired themselves to review and
critique your resume and cover letter. Accept their constructive
criticism and adjust your documents accordingly. This step could
help you immensely since your reviewers will see what the
employer would be seeing while you still have time to make
improvements.
Follow these brief, but important tips and you will be closer to
landing your dream job.
