Resume Tips & Sample

The Objective of a Resume is to get an Interview!!

These are just a few of The Waters Organization’s suggested tips for a resume:

  • Be concise (Limit resume to 2 pages)
  • Use the Bullet Format (see actual sample below) – this format is easy to read and/or eye scan.
  • Avoid fancy typefaces/fonts and page layouts.
  • Tailor your resume to the job description you are responding to – highlight important points or words, particularly those contained in the job description.
  • Be clear in your writing; do not assume the reader will know what you mean.
  • Do not include an “objective” at the top of your resume. This is risky, particularly if
    your objective is different than the job description or that of the reader’s.
