How To Write Resume
A resume is a marketing tool we use to get a new job, or a promotion or even a salary increase.
A good resume can convince our prospective employer that you are the most qualified candidate to be selected. In addition to that, a good resume should physically be appealing to the eyes and attractive to whoever reads it. More than that, a good resume should also be effective in showing our most strength so that our prospective employer is eager to contact you easily due to your skills in presenting what you have for the employer. To sum up, make sure your resume or curriculum vitae (CV) contains the followings:
- Your Highest education.
- Your Personal Strength.
- Your Experience.
- Your Skills.
- Your Highest Accomplishment.
- Your Best Imagination in Designing the Look of the Resume.
Types of Resumes
To write a good resume you have to consider two common types of resumes :
- Chronological resume
- Functional resume
Chronological Resume
The next The chronological résumé is the most commonly used resume by most people. This resume presents our background chronologically either starting from the most recent experience going chronologically backwards through a succession of previous experience or vice versa. The chronological résumé is better used if we have a good steady career growth and consistency. It is also good for the new entry. If we are often between jobs for quite a long period of time, It is not good to use this type because It will show our prospective employer the time gaps. This time gap can be negatively interpreted. See the resume samples below.
type of resume we are going to consider is functional resume.
Functional Resume
The functional resume is best used for us who have a lot of working experiences, job functions and skills. This resume can really highlight our strength and skills. It usually ignores the time frame. Therefore, It is good for people who are sometimes unemployed. This type of resume will not show the prospective employer our unemployment periods.
So, these type of resumes can be used in different situations. Here are those two types of resume :
