   :: Resume/CVs

Excerpted from the Singapore Career Guide


Employers today often make up their minds about an applicant by reading the initial summary and key skills section of a resume, and you must recognize that this is your main sales and marketing tool. It must be written to impress and grab the attention of the reader, highlighting your key skills and experience and your suitability for the role. This section can be either a full description paragraph or a list in a bullet-point format to make specific points more distinct. You must include specific examples of your achievements, such as "increased profitability over two years by 25 percent" rather than using generic management jargon, and make use of active keywords, such as negotiated or motivated.

This is just a sample of what you'll find in the complete guide.
