How to write an effective Resume

Your resume is a marketing document. It needs to be effective in telling your story. Here are some key things to consider while you're building your resume: 


Contact information: You need your contact information on your resume when applying to jobs. Name, email, phone number, LinkedIn Profile. You can add your city, state, zip but not your home address.


Experience: Make sure you use data and ROI. The top 2-3 bullets should be about achievements. You can add additional duties under each role but make sure you add how you made an impact rather than just listing your duties.


☕ Education/certifications/Licenses: School, degree, Level of degree is what you need. Unless you're a new-grad with no work experience leave the year you got your degree off your resume.


Skills: Your top skills as an employee. Don't self-rate. It's not necessary and the other party can't quantify it while just looking at your resume. You can list them either in their own section or in under each job. 


Make sure your experience has achievements listed. They don't always need numbers but people love to see numbers.
