A
great resume will open doors - a poor one slams them shut! As a
Military Transition Coach I see too many perfectly qualified individuals
missing out on great opportunities when all they lack is a proper resume. Many
transitioners believe "the more skills I can list on my resume, the better my
chances of being hired". In fact, the exact opposite is true. Employers
don't even bother trying to read long resumes filled with too much jargon.
Top 5 Requirements of Civilian
Employers
- Highlight your best qualifications first. Your resume must spark interest like
the front page of a newspaper.
- Use a layout with bold headings to provide emphasis where it is needed.
- Translate your most important skills and accomplishments into civilian
language.
- Eliminate information that is not relevant to the job you are applying for.
- Make it easy for the employer to see that you are qualified for the job and
capable of doing the work!
