Description

The resume is a paper presentation. Listing responsibilities is not enough. The number one mistake that most people make is underselling their skills. The inclusion of your significant accomplishments will differentiate you from other applicants. Your resume should include: assignments you created, wrote, designed, developed, implemented, set-up, modified, co-authored, planned, managed, invented, and any quantifiable results. All of those activities create a positive image for a prospective employer. (Example: If you implemented a new inventory software system, include the financial gain/savings the new system provided, or explain the reduction of inventory, reduction of returned goods, reduction of staff, etc. Your resume should be easy to read, have defined sections, have enough detail to appropriately represent you, and have a consistent format. Many books are available which define resume outlines specific to different disciplines. These can be very helpful in creation of your own outline. The best way to begin is to brainstorm on paper. List every task, skill, duty, project or responsibility as it comes to mind per position. Then organize items according to category. Write a summary for each position held and a general description of duties and responsibilities. Under the summary, use bullets to specify major projects, responsibilities and significant accomplishments. See the following suggestions under " Work History ".
