Resume writing - identify skill groups and then expand on them in the profile section

Resume writing is a complete process which has several distinct steps.


The first step in resume writing is that of personal inventory. This is perhaps the easiest part of the whole process due to the fact that you do not have to state anything new. It includes all your personal information like your full name, address, email ID and etcetera. The second step of the process is that of writing about employment history. In this regard, you should write more relevant jobs first to gain the attention of the employer or recruiter. The next in resume writing is that of educational background.


The same tip which we mentioned in the job history also applies here. A good idea would be to also write relevant courses which you took during the course of your degree for demonstrating the employer that you are suitable for the job you are applying for. Moving on, you could also write about the memberships you possess of societies and organizations. The next step is to mention your volunteer services if there are any. You could also write personal interests and hobbies in your resume. A word of caution, however, is that you keep these things to minimal.


The things we mentioned in this article are very basic and part of each resume. The next step in resume writing is that of writing talents and skills that are transferable and more importantly marketable. In the profile section, first write a big picture of talents you possess in specific fields like development or any other. Once you have decided on those, now you must also write briefly about the duties you performed in the company and also your achievements. In this regard, you have to expand on all the skills you write to demonstrate the recruiter that these are not just words but you have sufficient experience as well.


Summary

Resume writing is a complete process and it would not be a good idea to complete all of it in one go. It would be better to break down the process and do them individually.
