Resume
Fair or not, the greatest resume won’t cause you to be hired but a poor resume will always be tossed in a “No” pile.Crafting a resume that lands an interview is really important.
Tips: A little self-promotion is good; a lot is not. A little ingratiation is good; a lot is not. Moderation is key.
What you have done is helpful to a point but what you can do and willing to do will get you hired.Your resume should be built from your journey but pointed to your future.It should indicate your development and growth; hence it tells your story. The best resume shows the capacity where you want to go and this should be crafted on the job posting.A great resume leaves the hiring manager wanting to know how well you can do the job.
