🧠 Most Important Tips While Creating a Resume
- Start with a Clear Objective
Write a short, focused career objective that matches the job or field you’re applying for. Avoid generic lines — make it specific to your goal.
- Keep It Simple and Professional
Use a clean, readable format with clear headings. Avoid too many colors, fancy fonts, or graphics unless it’s a design-based field.
- Highlight Your Key Skills
List your most relevant skills first. Include both technical and soft skills (e.g., teamwork, communication, problem-solving).
- Focus on Achievements, Not Just Duties
Use action words like “Led,” “Developed,” “Achieved,” or “Improved” to describe your accomplishments.
- Use Keywords from the Job Description
Employers often use resume scanners (ATS). Include relevant keywords from the job post to make your resume searchable and more likely to be shortlisted.
- Keep It One Page (If You’re a Fresher)
For students or freshers, one page is enough. Experienced candidates can go up to two pages — no more.
- Check Grammar and Formatting
Spelling or grammar mistakes leave a bad impression. Review carefully before submitting.
- Include Updated Contact Information
Always double-check your phone number, email, and LinkedIn link.
- Add Projects or Internships
If you’re a student or fresher, add real-life projects, internships, or volunteer experiences — they make your resume stronger.
- Save and Send in PDF Format
PDF ensures your formatting stays the same everywhere. Avoid Word or image files when sending.
