hey guys ECR G here back with another episode today's episode is about why
proper formatting for your resume is absolutely crucial now as you guys know
I review a lot of resumes for clinical research a lot of people have been
sending their their resumes in to the email address elite clinical group at
gmail.com for their resumes to be reviewed we have the ongoing resume
interview program so email me there if you're interested in improving your
resume to improve your chance to get into clinical research but one of the
things that I have found when I've been reviewing a lot of these clients resume
is the formatting now the formatting for the resume is almost as important as the
actual information on the resume and that's because it's the first initial
it's like the first impression of your resume that people are gonna get the
first thing that they're gonna notice when someone opens your resume is how
does it look you know what kind of font are you using what kind of colors are
you using how is the spacing is it crowded as it congested is it hard to
read is there a lot of text is it two text heavy this is this is one of the
most important things about your resume that you have got to understand because
you know you you know how it is in real life the first impression is everything
you never get another chance to make a first impression and that formatting I'm
realizing is super super important to the overall feel look and resume and it
has an effect even if the words on your resume are really beautiful
if the formatting is terrible it's gonna leave a bad taste in the recruiter or
hiring managers mind about about your resume and your overall work experience
even if your experience is great so I just want to let you guys know that
formatting if you need help formatting your resume we we can do that for you we
can't help you there but it is incredibly important almost as important
if not more important than the actual words and text on
resume so just want to leave that message for you guys today just just a
quick little episode here about the formatting but I know I've talked to a
lot of recruiters and a lot of clients about it and you know that's one of the
reasons why if you have a lot of experience I'm tending to lean more
towards the two-page resume if you've got a lot of work experience years and
years but if you don't have a lot of work experience still the one-page
because it's nice short clean into the point but if you've got a lot of
experience you might want to spread that out over two pages because if the
formatting is gonna be a lot better a lot easier on the eyes
people don't like congestion on a resume you wanted things to be nice evenly
spaced you don't want to make it make it feel like it's you know very very tight
because that kind of congestion can come across and it can let the recruiter or
hiring manager know things about you that you didn't want them to know or
that you weren't even trying to portray in your candidacy so just something to
think about guys formatting your resume huge thing to focus on in 2019 all right
