Need help with your resume? Do you have a gap in your career? Is your resume dated? Are you new to the job market and need to create a winning resume? Have you listed your top 5 strengths on your resume? Is your current resume out of date? When did you last format your resume? Have you upgraded your resume for your next level job?

If you need help with your resume, you’re not alone! Here are a few tips to keep in mind:

  • Address Gaps in Your Career: If you have gaps in your employment history, be sure to address them in your resume. Include a brief explanation of why there was a gap and what you were doing during that time.
  • Keep Your Resume Updated: It’s important to keep your resume up-to-date, even if you’re not actively job searching. This will make it easier for you to apply for jobs when the time comes.
  • Highlight Your Strengths: Including your top 5 strengths on your resume can help showcase your unique skills and talents.
  • Use Clear and Concise Language: Keep your language simple and easy to understand, avoiding industry jargon or technical terms that may be unfamiliar to the reader.
  • Showcase Your Achievements: Instead of just listing your responsibilities, focus on the accomplishments and results you’ve achieved in your previous roles.
  • Use Bullet Points and White Space: Make your resume easy to scan by using bullet points and plenty of white space, rather than long paragraphs of text.
  • Keep It Brief: Aim for a one to two-page resume that highlights your most important skills and experiences.
  • Focus on Formatting: A well-formatted resume can make a big difference in how it’s received by potential employers. Make sure it’s easy to read, with clear headings and bullet points.
  • Tailor Your Resume for Each Job: When applying for a specific job, tailor your resume to match the requirements of that job. This may involve rearranging or adding sections to highlight relevant experience and skills.
