Looking for a job can be stressful. Trying to put together a resume that stands out might seem impossible. September is National Resume Month, and we include four tips that you can keep in mind when organizing your resume.
An online resume offers a lot of advantages, the most common places being:
Recruiters and employers do a lot of searching online these days, so if your resume is online, they can find you more easily. An online resume also functions well as a “master resume.” For each job you apply for, you typically edit your resume down and tailor it to that particular job. Having an online resume allows potential employers to see a complete picture of you, and there might be something on there you didn’t choose to include that sticks out to them that gets you a callback.
There are a lot of different ways to organize your resume, and all can be successful.
Even if you are not currently seeking employment, you have a lot to gain by periodically updating your resume. Opportunities can arise very quickly, and even if you are content in your current job, your dream job might make itself known to you at a moment’s notice. It’s good to be able to respond immediately when opportunity calls instead of having to take up precious time to massively update your resume or build another one from scratch. You also might forget particular accomplishments when you go to update your resume at a later date.
So give your resume some love this September by picking it up, dusting it off and looking at it critically. Update it even if you’re currently happy with your employment situation. You never know when your dream job will come knocking, or your situation will change.
