Get a Better Job? - Easy Ways to Better Your Resume
Get a Better Job? - Easy Ways to Better Your ResumeGet a better job? Yes, I hope you do. I want to give you a few suggestions on how to do it so that your resume will really stand out from the rest.You might think you can get a better job just by playing by the rules. Do you have your own business card with a phone number on it? Just put your name and your contact information on it and you're ready to go. Well, it's not quite that easy.So called 'professional' resume writers will sometimes lie on your resume. They'll say you have all the experience you really don't.This is one of the most common mistakes you can make. If you add up all the experience you've ever had, including it with what you've been at for the past ten years, then that's probably one of the top three accomplishments.Now if you went into business for yourself, you'd obviously write a 'proper' resume so you'd have much more experience. Now that's what most people consider to be a 'better job.' That's the part where t hey show that they're well prepared for whatever the next big thing is.When you combine all the experience you've got, you'll have something that's not just good for the headhunters but also stands out in the applicant pool. This will give you a leg up when you first interview with a potential employer. It'll also set you apart from the rest of the applicants. Some people don't even know why they aren't getting hired right now because they don't have the experience.So how does one get a better job? Well, first you need to do the proper research. Many people get in trouble with a resume that is filled with, 'Hey, I'm just going to add up all my experience here...' or 'Hey, I think I might have been doing some technical writing for a while.'
