Definition
An overview that sums up 3 - 5 of your most important strengths, skills and accomplishments.
Tips
- Come back to this section later. Your summary might be easier to write after you've written the rest of your resume or CV.
- Consider this your introduction. Identify the main idea you want to communicate and say it here.
- If you decide to use an objective statement, make sure it focuses on what you can offer an employer, not on what you want.
- Keep it short and sweet. You can provide supporting detail later.
- Tailor this section to match the job description. It's your chance to show you're the perfect fit.
- The first section in your resume or CV. This can be a short paragraph OR a headline with 3 descriptions (see examples).
Definition
The Accomplishments section is optional. Only include this section, if you can provide quantifiable examples of going above and beyond your job description or expectations.
Tips
- If you can't think of any note-worthy achievements to highlight, remove this section and let your Experience section speak for itself.
- Use measurable details. Facts and figures do the work of selling not telling.
- Give enough background (but not too much) so that hiring managers can understand the context of your accomplishments.
- If you can't quantify the results of your actions, it probably belongs in the Experience section rather than the Accomplishments section.
- If you have several accomplishments, consider grouping them under skill headings that are most relevant for your target job. (see examples).
- Use bullets beneath each skill heading to describe accomplishments.
- The best format for this section is a simple bulleted list or bullets under skill headings.
- Describe results rather than job duties. Communicate what you achieved rather than what actions you took.
- Don't include employer name, job title or dates since you'll provide these details later.
Definition
Professional, civic or personal organizations that you are a member of, usually industry- or job-related.
Tips
- Do not list any affiliations, such as a political affiliation, that are not job-related and could be considered controversial.
- Participation in professional and personal affiliations shows that you are involved -- and keep current -- with your industry. It can also demonstrate other important skills and attributes. Spell these out, if relevant.
- Show how job-related affiliations and personal affiliations have given you skills and attributes which are essential requirements for your target job.
- Spell out organization's full name and follow with the acronym in parentheses (if there is one).
- You can include affiliations which are no longer active. Just include dates so as not to be misleading.
- List names of the organizations with which you are affiliated. Or expand to include months/years of membership, titles held, committees served on, awards won.
Definition
Any technical skills, including but not limited to computer skills.
Tips
- Highlight skills most relevant for a particular job.
- List skills separately or group together, but keep in mind the table formatting. There is a character limit of 50 characters for the skills field.
- Provide the right mix for your desired job. Include both hard and soft, technical and non-technical, professional and personal attributes.
- Pull relevant skills from job description requirements.
- Shown as a bulleted list of skills or as a table organized by categories of skills. You may choose to provide details such as your level of expertise, number of years used and last used.
- You can choose to list all of your technical skills together or divide them into different categories.
- You may include descriptions for skill level, such as intermediate or advanced, or number of years experience with a particular skill.
