Слайд 3Resume Writing Tips
Use the following six-step writing process to help you
clarify your experience, achievements, skills, education, and other background information.
Step One: Focus. Decide what type of job you are applying for and then write it. You should name the position you want.
Step Two: Education. List any education or training you have got. If you are a recent college graduate and have little experience, then .our education section should be placed at the top of your resume. Show your secondary school education and activities on a resume - you are under 20 and have no education or training beyond secondary school. Continuing education shows that you care about life-long learning and self-development, so think about any 'elevant training since your formal education was completed.
Слайд 4Step Three: Your Jobs. Starting with your present position, list the
title of every job you have held along with the name of the company, the city, and the years you worked there.
Step Four: Job Descriptions. Under each job, make a list of your duties. Never use personal pronouns (I, my, me). Instead of saying, " planned,organised,and directed...,"you should say,"Planned, organised, and directed...." It is important to use nouns or short Erases that describe your experience and education like: UNIX, network, project management etc, well-known company names and universities.
Слайд 5Step Five: Relevant Qualifications. At the bottom of your resume, mink
about anything else that might qualify you for your job objective. This includes licenses, certificates, and sometimes even interests and hobbies if they are truly relevant. For instance, stating or your resume that you play tennis or are a gymnast would be appropriate if you want a job in sports marketing.
Step Six: Profile. Last but not least, write four or five sentences that give an overview of your qualifications .This profile, or qualifications summary, should be placed at the beginning of your resume. You can include some of your personal qualities or special skills.
