5 tips to know for creating a good resume and making a difference
Looking for a job? Seeking a permanent position or a seasonal job? You will need to start by creating your resume. This document provides recruiters with an overview of your professional background. What information should it include? Here are five tips for writing a good resume.
Writing a resume in 2023: what elements to include?
A resume is divided into several sections. The first section focuses on work experience, outlining your career path by presenting all the positions you have held. The second section provides information about your educational background, specifying the degrees you have obtained and the courses you have taken. Lastly, there is a section for interests. Today, recruiters place significant importance on both technical skills and soft skills (personal competencies). It is wise to include this information on your resume to maximize your chances of success.
How to make your resume attractive?
It can sometimes be challenging to include all these elements on a single page, especially when you have a rich career history. The difficulty lies in providing all the important information while creating an attractive document. To achieve this, you need to pay attention to the presentation of your resume, making it as clear as possible. Focus on the essentials by summarizing the information. You can create a resume using word processing software or free online tools. Regarding the layout, adopt the following best practices:
- Choose a classic and readable font
- Opt for sober colors
- Highlight certain elements in bold or italics
How to write a standout resume?
To differentiate yourself from other candidates and increase your chances of being selected, focus on the content of your resume. You can detail your experiences in chronological order, listing the names of the positions held for each period. Be sure to include examples of tasks you completed. If you are just starting out, it might be more effective to match your skills with situations where you have applied them. You can also combine these two approaches by organizing your experiences from the most recent to the oldest and highlighting the skills you developed in each role.
What information should be highlighted on your resume?
While acquired experience is an asset, we also place great importance on the skills and qualities of our candidates. Writing a resume requires emphasizing the most relevant information according to the job you are applying for. For instance, if you are applying for a seasonal job as a Childcare Animator, highlight your previous experiences related to this field.
What qualities make an effective resume?
A good resume must be clear and easily readable. It should summarize your professional background while emphasizing the skills you acquired through each experience. It should enable recruiters to understand why you are the ideal candidate for the targeted position.
