Resume Writing Tips

• A good resume will let employers know that you are organized, focused and know what your goals are. So make sure those ideals are reflected.
  
• Keep it short and to the point. Any additional information can be given at the time of your interview.
  
• Keep it relative. If it's information that has no bearing on the essential function of the job, it doesn't need to be listed.
  
• Use bullet points. Bullets points will allow someone to quickly scan your resume and still absorb the information.
  
• Use buzzwords. If there are terms that demonstrate your knowledge in your field, use them.
  
• Proofread your resume for grammar, spelling and punctuation errors.
  
• Don't underestimate the importance of a job specific cover letter. This is also an opportunity to showcase your skills, so use it.
