make a resume in gist -14-1-14

What is a resume? Resume is a document which narrates you, your career experience and skills in hope of getting a job. Let us discuss about best resume practice. LANGUAGE: Use of business language (i.e. English) is critical to the professionalism of a resume. FONTS: First of all fix the correct font to start writing the resume. NUMBER OF PAGES: Keep in mind that now-a-days recruiters prefer resumes to be in two pages or less. CAPTION: You should write the caption in bold letters as, … EXPERIENCE IN …………….. FIELD, after this write professional snapshot, in about 4 to 5 bulleted lines, narrating the job handled i.e. your designation in the company, your skills etc. PROFICIENCY MATRIX: Start writing about your proficiency Matrix, in about 2 to 3 bulleted lines i.e. career related courses undergone and proficiency level. WORK EXPERIENCE: If you are a experienced, write work experience in detail starting from present job. Write name of the organization, designation and year of start and end as subtitle of the paragraph and explain your responsibilities and contributions in 3 to 4 lines only. Continue the same format if you are worked for more than one company. You should provide only relevant information in the resume. ACADEMIC QUALIFICATION: After completing the work experience, write about academic qualifications starting from basic graduation i.e. B.Sc. in physics, electronics, mathematics as major subject, BE or B.Tech in electronics, computer science, electrical etc. Add other proficiency courses done by you in this section. ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Best part of your resume must have quantified accomplishments like your role and benefits to employer in terms of business development. PERSONAL MINUTIAE: In this section, write about your personal information like fathers name, date of birth, present address, communication address, languages known, hobbies etc. REFERENCES: References play an important role to recruiter as they would like to know about your character, behaviour, your qualification and work experience from the references you have provided in the resume.
