Resume Tips
From e-resume.net®

  • Grammar. So, you weren't an English major? That is not an excuse for grammatical errors. Your resume should be flawless. Proofread it several times, checking for words that spell check. Keep it in the same tense throughout. Do not write in first person, using pronouns such as you, me, I, he, she, we…Your resume is a formal, professional document! If you cannot be 100 percent sure that it is grammatically correct, solicit the help of a resume company. They will have several sets of professional trained eyes to look for errors. Better to be safe than sorry!


  • Keywords are pretty much the same as buzzwords, but they are so vital to your resume that it bears repeating. Keywords should be sprinkled throughout, but only use them if you know what they mean. Again, keywords are helpful because they trigger a response from employers.


  • Just like college students, professionals and executives, IT professionals or engineers need their own type of resume. The important thing to remember is to use industry-specific words, but make sure someone outside of your distinct position can understand what you do at work. Scientific and technical careers can be hard to describe because of all of the jargon, but help is available.
