OP...any template for fresh graduates?? |
| Re: Importance Of A Professional Resume by mosh2035(m): 8:49pm On Nov 04, 2015 |
adedee14: Sure you can use the above template and Redesign to suit ur situation. It's good to engage in internship during ur studies especially during strikes. Internship is easy to get once you tell the company to keep the monthly pay. Your goal should be professional knowledge and experience. In Nigeria money is the 1st priority that's why have loads of mess around. Always carry a honest resume because false claims might ruin. Best of luck sir |

Avoid these Top Resume Mistakes. 1. Typos and Grammatical Errors Your resume needs to be grammatically perfect. If it isn't, employers will read between the lines and draw not-so-flattering conclusions about you, like: "This person can't write," or "This person obviously doesn't care." 2. Lack of Specifics Employers need to understand what you've done and accomplished. For example: A. Worked with employees in a restaurant setting. B. Recruited, hired, trained and supervised more than 20 employees in a restaurant with $2 million in annual sales. Both of these phrases could describe the same person, but the details and specifics in example B will more likely grab an employer's attention. 3. Attempting One Size Fits All Whenever you try to develop a one-size-fits-all resume to send to all employers, you almost always end up with something employers will toss in the recycle bin. Employers want you to write a resume specifically for them. They expect you to clearly show how and why you fit the position in a specific organization. |
