name and combine it with a few numbers if necessary. Also,
use a modern e-mail provider, such as Gmail, to show that you
are in touch with technology.
5. Combine Files
If you are one of the few
people who need a two-page
resume, or you will be sending
other documents with your
resume (i.e. references), put
everything in one document.
You can do this by creating
everything in the same word processing file, or by converting
multiple pages into one PDF file. This will allow the HR team
to quickly view your information without having to open
various files.
6. Be Accomplished
A good resume does not merely list your previous jobs and
duties. It should thoroughly explain what you accomplished for
past employers, and how you contributed to the success of
the company. You can list awards you received, major projects
you completed, and how you helped increase sales
or productivity numbers.
