Resume Tips
From e-resume.net®

  • Typos. Don’t make them. If you make them, fix them. Better yet, have a pro write your resume for you. A resume company pays people to catch typos, errors and inaccuracies. Using a resume company is like paying for insurance that it will be perfect.


  • Professional Resumes
    A professional resume is appropriate for 60 percent of the workforce. If you need a professional resume, you are not necessarily a recent graduate, but you are not to the executive suite quite yet. Professional resumes should be career focused and chronological starting from your most recent job.


  • Most professionals will need a one to two page resume. People with fewer than 10 years of experience should stick to one page. Executive resumes tend to default to a lengthier format, often stretching to two or three pages.
