How to Make a Resume
I. Introduction to resumes
A. Hello. What is the initial step to getting an employment one the vacancy is advertised?
1. An institution seeks to employ the best employees hence they start by analyzing the qualifications of the employees against their job description.
2. As job seekers (potential employees), you look at the requirements and consider application for the position in case the requirements match your qualifications.
3. The first point of application involves preparation a cover letter and a resume for applications. What is a resume?
B. Description of a resume
1. A resume is a document that should market you before the potential employer in your absence.
2. It should provide a summary of your skills, qualifications, accomplishments, and practices in a manner that convinces the employer of your suitability for the job
3. As a mechanical engineering student, Rosenthal (69) notes that a resume should support your portfolio/ your portfolio should give a summary of the projects you have undertaken while the resume shows how you undertook them to their best possible.
C. A resume is one of the most important documents in the process of employment hence the need to analyze it (Youth Central n.p). This paper analyzes how to prepare a good resume and make it catchy enough to convince the potential employer to invite you for an interview.
II. The Summary and personal Details
A. Writing your personal details
1. The potential employer wants to know you hence; this is a basic introduction with little restrictions.
2. This section should cover all your biographical details including your name, age, contact details (email and phone), nationality and identification or passport number.
3. When writing your resume, avoid irrelevant details such as marital status, number of children, place of birth, social media names, and nicknames unless the potential employer requests any of the details (English et al 7). However, these details are complimented by an outstanding personal summary.
B. Writing your summary
1. A personal summary should stand out in order to make you the unique candidate that the employer is looking to hire.
2. A generic personal summary (copied from the website, friend, or used repeatedly) is potentially detrimental because it will not capture key details about the job.
3. Your personal summary should basically answer the question, “why should we hire you?” This means that it should be tailored towards the value you will add to the organization and not your personal objective.
C. Why should one have an outstanding personal statement?
Your personal statement is probably the only determinant of whether a person will look at your education and experience. It guides the employer’s curiosity to your educational qualifications.
III. Writing your educational background, experience, and achievements
A. The academic background helps one to know whether you meet the academic criteria for the job.
1. The only role of this area is helping the potential employer to understand your level of qualification.
2. There is no need to spend a lot of time here as all you require to write is the period of study, institution of study, and the achievements at that level (Bohn 109). Remember to start from the most recent, as that is the focus of the employer.
B. Professional experience and achievements
1. Why does the employer insist on professional experience? They simply want to understand whether the potential employee can cope with the pressure and requirements of the job.
2. This area shows whether you have worked before in internships/ attachments, jobs, and vocational practice that could help you to fit in the work easily.
3. However, you should avoid experience that does not relate to the job and focus on that which can help you in the course of the potential employment.
4. Achievements support the professional experience, which may prompt the potential employer to call any referees in order to verify the information.
IV. Writing Hobbies and referees
A. Enlisting hobbies
Do not spend much time enlisting your hobbies. They simply help the employer to know how you fit in the organization’s culture (Bohn 108). These can be trained in the organization hence employers focus on them only faintly.
B. Enlisting your referees
1. Referees are puritanically important, as they will be contacted to verify any information on the resume.
2. Their details should be accurate while at the same time, they should have ample information about you apart from awareness that they are your referees.
3. In case the details for the referees are accurate, the resume should be verified to remove any grammatical or logical errors that might cost you the job. However, summarily, a resume should be prepared with distinct summarized steps.
V. Summarizing a resume
A. A resume should be clear, precise, and short in order for it to attract the potential employer while capturing all the important details about you.
B. Your resume should have your personal information, summary, educational background, experience, achievements, hobbies, and referees.
C. Lastly, ensure you check your resume well to remove any grammatical and logical mistakes that may cost you the potential job.
