There are several excellent resume books and software available to assist you in presenting your skills and experience well in the written form of a Resume. However, the following are tips from an interviewer's perspective that may add to your success in this arena.

Proofread and Edit.

Make sure your resume has "eye appeal" and be extremely careful to correct any typographical errors-they kill your chance to prove you care about details.

Objectives.

Career objectives are always a welcome addition to any resume giving the employer a direction you are heading. The only time career objectives become a problem is when they restrict you by title or industry or speak only of what your future company can do for you instead of what you can do for your future company. (Sounds like a quote from the past doesn't it?) Therefore a Summary of skills, experience and education can work well in the place of an objective.

Style.

What type of resume is best for you? There are really only two prominent styles in the thousands of resumes Select Staffing has observed. One is the "traditional - chronological" resume and the other is the "functional" resume. Usually a traditional resume is most common, however, a functional resume is best whenever you are making a career change, a change out of a particular industry after several years, or have any recent instability in your resume.

Length.

Do not fret about keeping your resume to one page. At least 40% of all the resumes received are two pages in length. Use your own judgement, for most candidates one page should be fine however for those more experienced two pages are acceptable.

Accuracy.

Although a resume is more of an introduction to an employer and does not include all the facts about your employment, always be entirely truthful about whatever you put on a resume. This will begin a trusting relationship with your future employer and save on any embarrassment later in the hiring process.
