How To Make A Professional Resume That Works

The best way to make a professional resume that works is to incorporate a professional resume template with the exact language that your future employer is looking for. The objective of the resume should be to give employers an idea of who you are so they can determine whether or not they would like to commit time and resources to getting to know you better and hopefully bringing you onto their team.

1. Professional Resume Template:
First and foremost, you want your resume to be clean and presentable. If it doesn't, you won't be taken seriously and your resume will end up in the round file (aka the garbage). There is no reason for you to bother worrying about re-inventing what a professional resume should look like. Employers know what good resumes when they see them and luckily for you, there are pre-made resume templates and resume builders that you can use. The point is, a crappy looking resume won't get you the interview or the job. Stick with what works and you'll be one step closer to the goal.

2. What To Put In Your Resume:
Once you get a professional resume template or resume builder, you need to fill it up with the type of language that your future employer wants to see in the resumes he or she is sifting through. How do you do this? Well, where did you hear about this job position? You need to go back to the origin of your interest in your future job and why you are pursuing it, whether that be a job listing or a referral. Use the same type of wording that you saw in the job listing in your resume.

For example:
If you are looking for an accounting position and the job requires that you are a CPA or are at least CPA eligible, make sure that you specifically mention those details in your resume. If you don't meet those requirements you need to mention it somehow and be very straight forward about the issue. NEVER LIE because you will be caught sooner or later and it will damage your career and reputation.

The other really great way to use your employer's language to your advantage is to take any mention of "what your employer is looking for in an employee" or "an ideal candidate for the position" and tailor your resume to talk about these points specifically. If the ideal candidate is a great communicator, you need to talk about your communication skills in relation to your work experience and education.
