Write a Resume

A well written resume won't get you a position but it will get you an interview! Take the time and decide what type of resume will be best for your needs. Decide if you will take on the resume writing process yourself or if you will look to a resume service for help.

Organize your information yourself so that you have your data organized. Remember your resume is a reflection of you and it needs your personal input. An effective resume is a clearly written, concise document which presents your skills, knowledge, experience, education and other relevant data.

What a Resume Does:

• Focuses attention on your special abilities
• Creates a favorable impression of you
• Creates a desire to meet you personally to find out more about you

What a Resume Does Not Do:

• Get you a job... you do
• Present all the facts about you (no life story)... just give pertinent information
• Misrepresent you... a good resume presents you "favorably" but does not state untruths.
