well crafted resume can set you apart from other candidates. Strong resumes do more than summarize your educational background and work history; they emphasize the results of your efforts and draw clear parallels between your skills and experience and an employer’s needs. The 5 Steps of Resume Development Step 1: Analyze the Position Description Read the position descriptions thoroughly and then highlight all of the keywords which indicate required and preferred skills, abilities, attributes, and qualifications. If an employer is looking for someone who is innovative, punctual, and attentive to detail, consider using these same or similar words in your resume. Because there are patterns within industries/fields, you may develop a strong resume template for a particular category of positions. Along these lines, it is also often appropriate to have multiple versions of your resume, which may vary in content and structure depending on your target. Step 2: Generate a List of Accomplishments Create an inventory of your accomplishments—tasks you enjoyed doing, did well, and are proud of.

Remember transferable skills, skills you’ve developed that can be used in many different settings! If you are applying to your first position in a field/industry, consider in detail which skills you have developed (and how) from past experiences that may translate to this new environment. Step 4: Write Descriptive Phrases Using action verbs (see p. 18), write concise phrases to describe experiences that demonstrate your relevant skills. The accomplishments on your resume should ultimately be targeted to address an employer’s needs. Do your best to place them in order of relevance with the most relevant information as close as possible to the top. Step 5: Choose a Format Within one page, aim to develop a focused, succinct marketing document that clearly communicates your value and relevant experience and skills.
