Employers want specifics on how you can do the job for them. Vague, general resumes that cover many possible job options often get lost among the competition. Target each resume to the job you seek. Although you may qualify for several different positions, it's better to create a different resume for each job and incorporate only the information pertinent to the specific job title. This will alleviate the tendency to crowd your resume with too much non-related information.
Employers react only to related specifics.
Use a summary of qualifications This is the most important part of your resume. Be sure to demonstrate results of your work and how your former employers benefited. Include evidence of your productivity by noting any cost or time savings, and mention innovations, changes or actions that show you actively produce desired results. Be accurate State your skills, qualifications and experience as positively as possible without exaggerating or misstating the truth. Be sure your job responsibilities are adequately described by your job title, and indicate the true level of your abilities.
