How to Make Your Resume Looks Good

Software Tech

When you are finding a job, the resume is the first thing the employer can get to know you. Basically, a resume is a brief overview of your experience and skills putting together to sell yourself as one of the best choices for a prospective employer to interview. It initiates the process of introducing yourself to the employer. So the quality of your resume determines the whole job hunting process. Some may say the most important is that you have the true knowledge and ability to do the job well, which unfortunately cannot be judged unless you have got that job.

 

The content is the most important of your resume, but it doesn’t mean the more you write the better your resume will be. I recommend the resume to be no more than 2 pages. Basically, your resume should include the following information.

 

(1) First of all, you need to put your complete contact information on top. That includes: full name, full address, phone number, and E-mail.

 

(2) Open your resume with your education. Include all the schools that you have attended and your GPA. Do not put anything below middle high-school.

 

(3) After education, list all your previous job experiences and the volunteer experience that you had and any special awards or honor rolls. This is the most important part of your resume. If you have much experience, remember to keep it concise if you want to list them all. Or you can pick a few and illustrate them in some detail.

 

Another thing to bear in mind is to make it easy to read. You should choose the right background color, font and page structure. Take a reference of the successful resume samples on the Internet will help you a lot. One thing you should not forget is to make it look good after printed on papers.

 

Usually the resume is created in Word, Excel, or Photoshop. It is fine if you make it in Photoshop, for the resume is saved as an image, and it will look quite nice after printing. For those who make resume in Word or Excel, I suggest you save it as a PDF file, for one thing you never know what version of word or Excel processor your recipient is using. For another, a PDF file will look much better than Word or Excel after printing.

 

That’s it. As long as your resume is informational and looks good, it will absolutely impress the employer and more job opportunities will come to you.
