Create Content That Sells
Resume
design should get attention but it's really the content of your resume,
the descriptions you include of your skills and abilities, that determine
how many interviews you generate--as well as the level of salary offers
you receive. Compare the before and after statements from Roger's resume
shown below:
Before Resume:
Maintained records for accounts receivable and accounts payable accounts.
After Resume:
Managed over 1,000 accounts receivable and payable accounts working
directly with the Chief Financial Officer. Which of these examples presents
Roger as being more qualified, having higher skills and worth a higher
salary? As this example illustrates, our image of Roger is changed and
elevated when we read the after example.
