I’m going to take a wild guess and say that you’ve learnt how to write an effective resume. In schools they’ve been teaching students how to write effective resumes since the olden days! But let me tell you right now, that the methods are changing. Back a few years ago resumes were simple, these days they’re more complex. So forget all you’ve learnt about writing resumes, bin your current resume. It’s time to leave the old tired methods of writing behind and enter the new era of resume writing.

These days writing an effective resume isn’t just important, it’s vital. So is presenting your resume. A well written and presented resume will do you justice and ensure your resume actually gets read by a potential employer. I’ll let you into a little secret, potential employers don’t have time to read every resume they receive. They simple scan each one for a few seconds! But when they find one that’s presented nicely and is well written they read right through to the end! It should go without saying that a well written and nicely presented resume is the way to go!

Before you started writing your new effective resume, you have to put yourself in your potential employers shoes. Think about the job role you’re applying for, the requirements for the job, what they’re looking for etc. You better have qualifications related to the job role you’re applying for, that is a requirement! But understand that most people applying for the same position will have the same qualifications. So you have to be more unique so you stand out from the crowd. Are they looking for a team leader with stellar leadership skills? Great! Include your hobbies and other activties where you demonstrate leadership skills. In my case, I’m a captain of a local soccer team.

Always remember to sell yourself in your effective resume, that’s the only way you can stand out and beat out the other competetion. Brag about your qualities all day long.
