Business Resume Do’s and Dont’s
Here are some simple DOs and DON'Ts that can help you avoid many of the more
common mistakes associated with a poor business resume:
DO'S
Make an easy to read resume. It is a summary and not a biography.
Keep the whole resume short. Depending on your work experience, a page or
two would do. A third page is only used when necessary.
Stress your past accomplishments and skills to get better results. Be specific on
this.
Focus on information that is relevant to the position you are aiming. Also highlight
transferable skills from a different career.
Neatness is very important. How your resume appears tells a lot about your
personality.
DON’TS
Do not enclose a photograph of yourself. There can be a chance that you ahve a
resemblance to a person that the potential employer might not like. This could
spell trouble to your application.
Don’t include personal references. Employers are only interested with references
if they are considering applicants fro interviews. At that time, they will ask for
references.
Avoid using odd shaped paper or those with loud colors. Good quality white
paper is safe.
Your previous salary or the reason you left your previous job should not be
included. Lawsuits, sexual harassment issues and other related issues should
also be not included.
Do not included information that are not relevant to the position you want to get.
Do not expect that you can get hired instantly with your resume. It can help you
but you need to speak for yourself too.
