What makes a good resume

What makes a good resume?

Recently, we’ve spent a considerable amount of time reviewing applicant resumes, and we’re truly honored that so many talented individuals are interested in building their careers with us. While we wish we could accept everyone, we ultimately have to make difficult choices, and those with standout resumes often rise to the top.

Since we cannot take in everyone, at least we would like to benefit everyone. So here is our feedback on what makes a good resume.

Clarity and Conciseness
A good resume is clear and easy to read. Use concise language to communicate your experience and skills effectively, aiming to keep it within one or two pages. Avoid long paragraphs and use bullet points to break down information for better readability.

Relevant Skills
List technical skills, software knowledge, languages, and any certifications that are relevant to the position. Many companies use applicant tracking systems (ATS) to screen resumes, so including keywords from the job description can help your resume get noticed.

Professional Summary
A brief summary at the top of your resume provides an overview of who you are, your expertise, and what you bring to the table. It should be tailored, impactful, and focused on YOUR specific strengths relevant to the job you’re applying for.

Clean Design and Formatting
A resume should have a clean, professional layout with consistent fonts, spacing, and alignment. Use headings for each section, and avoid overly flashy designs unless you’re applying for a creative role. A neat and organized format helps employers find the information they need quickly.

Error-Free Content
A good resume is free from spelling and grammatical errors. Mistakes can make your application look rushed or unprofessional, so be sure to proofread thoroughly. Consider asking a friend or using proofreading tools to ensure accuracy.

Also, please dont copy paste portions from friend’s resume.  🙂

Now after you have made your resume right, note down this checklist before your press the send button.

All the best with your next job application. While waiting for your next job, work on your skills. The most valuable asset you have is time. Use it.
