airann 1 #3 January 8, 2003 Over the last 2 years I have become kinda good at it. Do you have a rough draft? Start with that. Dates of employment to and from - What you did there, how you were a hero and etc.... See if there are ANY persons who can vouch for you. To use as references. That is about it for a resume... some big words here and there and you got it. There are several forms for resumes in Word, under templates. I customize those and go with it. ~AirAnn~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

weegegirl 2 #5 January 8, 2003 If you want someone to check it out once you draft something, I've helped a lot of my friends with theirs and I wouldn't mind taking a look at it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,129 #6 January 8, 2003 One hint is to make sure your grammar and spelling are accurate. Particularly spelling, but grammar (within resume bounds) makes a big difference too.

lizzieb 0 #10 January 8, 2003 Keep the formatting simple and only use bold or italics on phrases you really want to stand out. I've done a bit of recruiting for my work and most of the time I spend no more than 30 seconds on a first glance at a resume. I am just looking for key things that make that person a possible match for the job opening. Neat, concise presentation usually works best. Good luck!

pack40 0 #12 January 9, 2003 MS Word has built in templates for Resumes, called Resume Wizard. File -> New -> Other Documents -> Resume Wizard If you do not have it can download it from Microsoft website. I attached some templates use WinRAR 3.00 to open it.
