RESUME BUILDING


The Marketing brochure of 20 years of your knowledge is known as Resume. A  Guiding principle of resume writing profession is that there are no hard and fast rules.  Before we get into the steps it should be noted that there is no certified way to write one. If your resume grabs the attention of hiring managers then it would be easier for anybody to shortlist for the interview. Rather than write, "Designed window display on monthly basis," you might write, "Increased customer walk-in rate by 10% with themed window displays, updated on monthly basis. “Resume represents you. It helps employer to know you better. It gives an idea of your writing skills. 

One cautionary note: To make your job sound, impressive and meaningful there is a need of boasting. If you puff up recognizable positions with over-the-top language, it can really backfire and make you seem silly. The hiring manager will know what it means if your job title is "assistant" or "manager" and aggrandizing the position's responsibilities with inflated language won't help you land an interview.

Being deceitful or dishonest or Lying on your resume can cost you a job opportunity and is even grounds for dismissal if the lie is discovered after you're hired on—hence the most important is to keep the resume honest, because “Honesty is the best policy”.
