Hi guys. So it is summer job
time and a summer internship
time.
And maybe you're wondering
how you're going to land that summer
gig. Well last week on episode
59 we shared with you
how to write a cover letter.
So naturally this week we
wanted to share with you how
to write a resume.
Hi
everyone.
Welcome back to our channel.
This is the homework help show
hosted by homework help global.
And my name is Cath Anne.
This is episode 60 of
the show.
Here on the show we provide you with
valuable content for your
academic and student life.
Let's talk about how to write
a resume.
Tip number one.
Think about the purpose of the
resume.
Essentially a resume is intended
to catch the eye
of the hiring manager.
You also want to land
a job interview.
Make sure you tailor your resume
around those two concepts.
Catching the eye of the hiring
manager and securing
a job interview.
Tip number two
gather background information
even if you have an old resume
lying around.
It can help to go through your
most recent accomplishments
experiences education
before you begin writing your resume
may go through all your recent
accomplishments and include them
in your resume.
Tip number three
decide the focus of your resume
and decide which type of
job you are seeking and
how to focus your resume.
Include relevant details on your
resume that speak to
the specific job you are currently
seeking.
Tip number four.
Do some research on the job
and the field that you're looking
at.
Research the field that you're
interested in as well as some
relevant keywords to include in
your resume.
By including these keywords in your
resume you'll catch the employer's
attention and they will
be more likely to bring you in for
a job interview.
It will help you to look
knowledgeable and prepared
for the field that you're seeking.
Tip number five include
relevant contact information.
In most cases due to
current privacy issues your
name phone number and
email are appropriate to include on
your resume.
You may also want to include the
state or province where you live.
So the hiring manager knows
where you are located.
Also make sure to provide
a professional email
creating one using Gmail can
be helpful.
Tip Number six.
Create a professional profile
at the beginning of your resumé.
Summarize your top accomplishments
that apply to the job that you're
looking for.
Use three to four bullet points
to denote these accomplishments
and also include some of the
keywords that you have found in
your earlier research.
Remember the components that you
include in this section should
be backed up in the body of
your resume.
With specific details linking
to experiences and accomplishments
that you have had.
Tip number seven.
Develop your professional
experiences section
working from your most current
job backwards.
Describe the job that you've had.
Now make sure you're not just
including duties or
responsibilities.
You'll want to include two to three
bullet points under each job
experience that denote a
quantified accomplishment or
experience that you've had in your
job placement.
Here try to think about including
a description of how you made
the job your own.
Shy away from including duties
or responsibilities do
not include older or
non relevant job experiences
on your resume.
The hiring manager won't be
interested.
Tip number 8
format your educational
experience section
just like the job section.
Start with your most current
experience first
and work backwards.
Include all relevant accomplishments
degrees diplomas in this
section.
Finally you may
want to include a skills section.
Now this is a great opportunity
to use some of those key words
that you found in your prior
research.
Discuss awards accomplishments
or other types of skills you have
developed through your education
or your job experience.
