Looking to impress our hiring managers here at Cervus? Crafting a resume that will impress recruitment specialists can be difficult and intimidating. Whether you’re new to resume writing or unsure of the process, it’s important to take the time to gather the right information. Effectively market yourself and attract more offers with our resume writing tips:
Organize your resume effectively
It is essential to organize your resume in such a way that a hiring manager can easily read and identify who you are, your key skills and relevant experience. Be sure to include the following in this order:
Contact Information: Your full name, current address, daytime telephone number and email address should be at the top of your resume.
Career Summary: Include a summary that is concise and specific. State your expertise and incorporate how you can help the company accomplish its goals.
Skills Summary: A clear summary of your skills, experiences, and goals written to align precisely with the job posting requirements.
Experience: Add your work experience in reverse chronological order (with the most recent job listed first). Include the name of the company, the position title, and dates of employment. List roughly three to five important tasks, accomplishments, or skills gained at each job. If you have any gaps in employment, provide a brief description explaining why.
Education: Provide all relevant degrees, diplomas, certificates or certifications you've achieved in reverse chronological order. Be sure to include the name of each institution, location, and date of graduation or expected year of graduation.
Additional Skills: List any other skills you have that relate to the job but are not included elsewhere in your resume. Whether you're bilingual or proficient in specific computer programs, be sure to identify your level of familiarity with each skill (beginner, intermediate, expert).
Volunteer Work, Hobbies and Interests: Highlight volunteer experience or hobbies and interests that might relate to the position you are applying for.
Cater your resume to a specific job or industry
Tailor your resume to the job or industry you're applying for to grab the attention of hiring managers and increase your chances of being noticed in a large pool of applicants. Before applying, review the job posting to see which qualifications are emphasized. Exclude any experience that is not relevant to this specific role and add any information that applies to the employer.
Finishing Touches
Recruiters receive an abundance of resumes every day, make yours stand out! Choose a simple layout or template that is easy to read and one that looks professional. Accompanying your resume with a brief cover letter highlighting your experience, education and any other relevant skills will show you are a strong candidate who is serious about the job. Finally, it is essential to review your resume and cover letter for any spelling or grammar errors before submitting it for consideration.
By following our resume tips, you will increase your chances of getting noticed by future hiring managers. Apply now for a
