Writing a Job Winning Resume
Have you sent your resume online? And still no response from any employer. You are not the only one here. Resume will only get you an Interview. So to get shortlisted for the interview, you should learn to prepare a Resume accordingly. Let’s find out some information about the Resume.
Your resume is the first meeting between you and a prospective employer. In short it is your bio data or that sheet of information that should give the interviewer /recruiter a gist of who you are and what you have to offer. It should not run into many pages and be crisp and to the point. Writing only as much as required is the key to a perfectly balanced Resume which doesn’t go on and on about you, but just lets the interviewer or recruiter what he needs to know.
Remember that your Resume speaks for itself but you need to know everything that’s on it. If you have not done it don’t write it down…
Never lie on a resume. You might not be caught right away, but you will be eventually
