Guide to Writing a Killer Resume
Guide to Writing a Killer ResumeMany people are looking for a guide to writing a killer resume. The problem is that, as I see it, there really isn't one! Let me tell you why.First, let's look at the fact that a resume is not something that you just type up and shove in a folder and forget about it; nor is it some kind of document that you don't have to update every once in a while. A resume is, in fact, a form of communication - specifically, an application form. There are thousands of questions that go into a resume; different types of career goals, different career experiences and objectives, etc.As a form of communication, a resume is obviously designed to be easy to read, to make it easy for people to skim through and to quickly get the information that they want out of it. It has a short and concise format. However, as a form of communication, this is the exact opposite of what a resume is designed to do! A resume is designed to communicate directly with the employer.If the empl oyer can't easily read a page or two of text, they're going to take a while to understand the job market, the job profile, and the qualifications of the person applying for the job. That's why it is so important to write your resume in a way that allows the employer to quickly and easily see exactly what the person is looking for and what he/she wants in the job!Let's get real, though: there are no free resume services out there that will help you write your killer resume. Sure, there are templates and guides to help you do it, but those are not necessarily written to be easy to follow; they're written to be cute and attractive, designed to attract the eyeballs and the attention of someone searching for the job that you want. They don't offer any solid advice on how to write a killer resume.That doesn't mean, however, that you can't find a guide to writing a killer resume. Of course you can! Just find a reliable, proven system that offers realistic advice on how to write a killer re sume that is understandable and easy to read - advice that takes the average person who knows nothing about resumes and puts them on their toes, so to speak, to make them the most effective in the eyes of the employer!As you may know by now, there is no free lunch; there are no free services that offer free advice on how to write a killer resume. You will still have to pay for those services. But, you can be sure that a professionally-written resume that offers you an easy-to-read and comprehend version of the information that you are looking for is definitely worth paying for - even if you only spend $20 for it!A truly killer resume is one that is designed to catch the attention of the employer as soon as possible. Your resume is your first contact with the employer, and it is the first contact that are going to help you land the job you really want. Make sure that it's the best possible first impression!
