Purpose of a Resume
A resume is a marketing document. It tells employers who you are, what you can do for them, and what you want as a professional. It should be customized to show off your passion, experience, and your skills. A resume is your chance to get in the door for an interview. It's one step closer to getting that job you've always dreamed of, or that job you need to pay your bills. Either way, it's a necessary tool.
ATS and Your Resume
Your resume needs to do these 3 things: get past the Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS), be scannable, and be visually appealing to the reader.
-
For a resume to get past the ATS, there are certain formats and layouts to follow. Also, there are certain font sizes and font types that need to be used. There can't be columns, images, icons, charts, graphs, or text boxes because most ATS cannot read them.
-
Recruiters and hiring managers scan resumes within 10 seconds, so the most important information needs to pop and be seen when it's scanned (this includes keywords, skills, and achievements).
-
Keeping all this in mind, you also want it to be visually appealing to the eye so anyone who reads it will not be turned off or frustrated with how it reads.
​
Your resume must also outline your story, telling others where you were, where you are, and where you want to go.
Resume Review
If you're interested in a resume review, to see how your resume might measure up when applying for jobs, please email me directly at elizabeth@propelyourselfnow.com.
​
Email me your current resume, and your career plans moving forward (if you know what they are). I will review your resume and email you back my suggestions/comments. You will get a reply within 24 hours (usually much sooner).
