During the admission and recruitment
process, companies use resumes to learn more about applicants to evaluate
whether they are the right fit. Studies suggest that, on average, recruiters
spend only six to seven seconds on each resume. Hence, it is essential to get
noticed by a potential employer/moderator in this limited time span. And for
this, submitting a well-written resume is indispensable.
How do tips for resume help students?
Just like resumes help job aspirants in
job search, students submit their resumes to colleges to get admissions and to
companies for internships. An updated resume is a crucial document that highlights
your skills, qualifications, achievements, ambition and passion for pursuing a
course.
So, here are some resume writing tips and
samples that will make your job or admission application stand out from the
crowd.
Resume Writing Tips
·
Include necessary information: The foremost important thing is that a
resume must include some basic information that helps employers to understand
who you are, what you have studied, how you are different from others, etc. The
basic information comprises name, academic qualification, relevant skills,
additional courses/certification programs undertaken, projects or research,
extra-curricular activities, internships and work experience (if any) and
contact details.
·
Add career objective: Adding a career objective to a resume is
essential to tell why you are the right person for the particular position.
Keep it short to 3-5 sentences. You can write it in bullet points or a sentence
format.
For instance,
if you have completed your education in the Engineering domain and looking for your
first job role, impress the recruiters by writing your career objective as a “Self-motivated
and hardworking individual with exceptional research and data analysis skills
seeking the position of Junior Mechanical Engineer in your company”.
Pro-Tip: Tailor the career objective of the resume to
suit the position you are applying for.
Resume writing: mistakes to avoid
·
Do not include unnecessary personal information (age,
weight, height, etc.).
·
Do not lie regarding your skill set and work
experience; be honest.
·
Avoid using hard-to-read fonts. “Times New Roman” and “Arial”
are the best fonts for resume writing.
