A guide to resume writing

Be sure to leave your phone number and e-mail (contact details). Otherwise, if you forget to mention them, your resume will be useless; an employee will never manage to contact you. There is one ticklish issue to mention. When you mention your e-mail, try to use only neutral e-mails, an e-mail like maniac@ can produce bad impression on the employer.

Professional history. In this subsection of your resume, state the previous places of work in chronological order.

Strengths and achievements. Do not be too shy; do not underestimate your strong points. At the same time, do not boast, this will not be useful. You may also state your weaknesses in the resume, but be careful with this point. Let us play a trick, let us state a drawback that will be a strong point as well. For instance, you may state that you are a workaholic or a perfectionist; any employer will think it is a merit.

Your hobbies. Make sure that the hobbies you are listing here will not harm you. Try to choose some original hobbies but do not let them show that you are eccentric and weird.

Where shall I place my resume?

There are a lot of web sites where candidates place their resumes and employers search for them themselves.

If you have found a vacancy, send a resume to the employer yourself.

Take your resume with you if you are going to an interview.
