Not Everyone Needs a 
Professionally Written
Resume…
How do you know whether or not you even need a
professional to write your Resume? Try asking yourself the following
questions:
 |
Do I have the time
to prepare a quality product? |
 |
Do I have the
money to hire a certified professional? |
 |
Do I possess
superior writing, spelling, grammar, and punctuation skills? |
 |
Do I know what
information is critical, optional, and extraneous? |
 |
How long should my
Resume be? What’s the best format? |
 |
How can I best
describe my military experience in a language civilians can understand? |
 |
When is a cover
letter preferred? When is it inappropriate? |
 |
Should I always
include references? |
 |
What is better—faxing,
e-mailing, Internet posting, or mailing an original? |
 |
How do I prepare
for an interview? What is my net worth? What is the best way to negotiate
a fair salary? |
Once you have discovered the answers, you’ll
have a pretty good idea of what you should do.
…But if you do write your own, it’d better
be exceptional.
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
 |
You only have
20-30 seconds to impress a prospective employer, and only one
chance to make the "call back" list. |
 |
If your Resume
doesn’t stand out, neither will you. |
 |
Your work history
is only half of what you need for a good Resume; the other half is
readability, presentation, and powerful wording. Your Resume is not only
a summary of your strengths, skills, capabilities, and potential, it is a
direct reflection of your professionalism. |
Do you have what it takes to make a memorable
impression? Remember, you only have one chance to make a good first
impression!
