List quantitative support for statements made - back up your skills and experiences with real scenarios, facts and figures
Begin statements with action verbs - action verbs demonstrate your importance to the achievement or experience being described
Don't do these things
Have any grammatical errors - always have someone else proofread your r?sum? for errors and flow
Have any spelling mistakes - always spell check your r?sum?, your contact's name, and the company's name
Misrepresent your background or experience - employers oftentimes verify this information and can fire you if it is discovered that you were dishonest
Fill in employment gaps with unrelated information - wait to discuss this information in person to put a positive spin on it
Use lengthy paragraphs - employers notoriously skip over paragraphs in r?sum?s
Use long sentences - just like paragraphs, the reader easily skips over long sentences
Use personal pronouns - keep your r?sum? impersonal for a more professional image
