Here are a few tips when writing your resume:
- Don’t write a book. Keep your resume within two pages.
- Have your resume available in multiple formats, like .pdf or .doc
- Have an appropriate professional email address listed.
- Use correct spelling and grammar.
- Make sure your resume is clean. Don’t use to many different fonts, colors, etc.
- List experience relevant to the specific position.
- Don’t list references on your resume. If a recruiter needs references, they will ask you for them.
Two thoughts:
1) Never use more than one font. If you do you better be a designer and have a very good reason.
2) One page resume is preferred and if more than one page you better have a really good reason.
