Contact Information:

The top of your resume should include the following information:

• Full Name
• Phone number with country code
• Location (City, State, Zip Code)
• Email Address( professional id )
• LinkedIn profile URL

It might seem obvious, but job seekers sometimes forget a key piece of contact information in this section. Double check and make it as easy as possible for recruiters to contact you for a job interview.

Include a personal phone number with country code, never a work number. Add your city, state, and zip code (e.g. “Jayanagar, Bangalore 560041”). This is important as some applicant tracking systems allow recruiters to filter candidates based on location. Recruiters will always start with local candidates first. If you’re relocating from another area, list both your current location and your future location.

Use a professional-sounding email address. An email address based around your name is ideal, such as jackieromano12@email.com. Your “fun” email address might work perfectly fine in your personal life, but “beersnob88” or “biebersuperfan” might not cast you in the most professional light. Even using an email client that is considered outdated — like AOL or Hotmail — could hurt your chances. Consider creating a free Gmail account for your job search.

If a recruiter is intrigued by your qualifications, they will look up your online profiles. All job seekers should create a strong LinkedIn profile and include the URL on their resume. This will make the recruiter’s life a little easier and help them cross check the claims on your resume.

How do I make my resume look professional ?

• Include no personal information: age, health, marital status, height, weight, religion.
• Never use the first person “I.” Do not use full sentences. Eliminate all unnecessary words (a, the).
• Never lie or exaggerate.
• Use “bullets” (•, ♦, *, −) for listing items under a heading description, such as experience.
• Proofread carefully. Grammatical, content and typographical errors may eliminate you immediately from consideration for an interview. Ask others to proofread the resume as well.
• The successful resume is one that results in interviews. Does your present you as an accomplished person? Is it easy to read, pleasing to the eye, devoid of all errors, current, honest?

• Apostrophes indicate possession, contraction or pluralized letters and numbers. It’s easy to confuse it’s (it is) with its (possessive of it). Generally when nouns are possessive, the placement of the apostrophe indicates whether or not the noun is also plural. (Student’s indicates that something belongs to one student, while students’ indicates something belongs to more than one student.)
• A verb must “agree with” its subject: Marie supervises, not Marie supervise. He does, but they do. These rules apply even when subject and verb are separated by other words and phrases. Pronouns must agree with the nouns to which they refer: “A student must type their own resume” does not make sense because only one student is represented by their in this case. The correct sentence would be, “A student must type his or her own resume.”
• Are any of your sentences overly long or overly short? Some short sentences can be combined with other sentences that have related ideas. Some, but not all, overly-long sentences are “run-on,” which means that two independent clauses (a group of words containing a subject and predicate that can stand alone as a sentence) are fused together.

• Does your computer screen have green squiggles under words which may indicate grammatical errors? (Sometimes the squiggles are indicating spacing errors.)
• Are there red squiggles under any words which may indicate spelling errors? Remember that ‘spell check’ will not catch every error. As long as the letters make up a real English word, it is okay with ‘spell check.’ This does not mean it will be okay with the reader! We see letters that contain grate ideas. Such writers may not get two far with there poor writing skills. (Note that my computer spell check totally misses the three outstanding spelling errors in the last two sentences.)
• Does each sentence have a clear message? Is this exactly the message you want to convey? Are the related ideas grouped together? Proofread again. Ask a friend to proofread it too.
