Resume Writing – Your Skills Brochure
FIND OUT MORE ABOUT SHERI GAMMON DEWLING >>

An organized, effective resume will get you interviews. The job of the resume is to act as the brochure of your skills; designed to ‘pique interest’ in potential employers – not a biography or complete work history. Your job in the interview is to sell the skills your brochure promised.

Top 4 Rules
The structure of the resume should include your contact details, objective, key qualifications, recent work history and highest/most recent education.
Spelling and grammar must be PERFECT – this is critical!!
Always cater your objective to the specific role you are applying for. It is one sentence that is simple to customize for each opportunity.
Maximum 2 pages, plus cover letter (putting cover letter content in an email is acceptable if you are delivering your resume electronically).

Qualifications
Most of us have trouble writing nice things about ourselves. Get over it! No company looking for a programmer is going to call for an interview if you say, “My C++ skills are ok.”

Results Driven Role
Include your results! If you led a department that exceeded budget by 40%, the line under qualifications should read something like:

Managed Team to 40% revenue growth in one year.

not

My Team did really well last year and sold more than ever.

Supportive Role
Don’t underestimate your skills. If you are proficient in three or more Microsoft tools, qualifications should read:

Proficient at Microsoft Office.

not

Worked with Outlook, Notepad and Word.

Writing Style
Many of us think we know how to write. There are different categories of writing that require unique writing skills by type. Resume writing should be professional, short, concise, and results-oriented.

It is likely that there is a position open because the interviewer is overworked and needs help. Accordingly, the interviewer doesn’t have time to read a biography for each candidate. A qualified resume with key words and results that jump off the page is likely to lead to an interview.

JustMOMsense.com is Your Resume Writing Tool
Let us design the ‘brochure’ that will get you to the interview. Reorganize and polish your existing resume, $50.00 / page. Complete resume; collect information and write, $100 / page.
