Of course, there are also plenty of people entering the job market for the first time. They may not know where to begin. Experience makes everything so much easier.
I'm here to tell you we can do this. Writing a resume is really not that difficult.
Okay, so let's get you some help making a resume!
First, you should make your name and contact information very easy to read. Particularly your name. Why? Because when an employer reads our resume the main thing we want them to remember is who we are. You want them to easily remember you.
Second, perhaps one of the most important, and often neglected, areas in your resume is the objective statement. This is where you tell the employer what kind of position you are looking for and why. Be sure to state your objective in a way that matches the employers needs. For example, if you are applying for a night shift position be sure to point out you are looking for a night shift position. If the job advertisement said they are looking for a help desk person don't write that you are seeking a position as a computer repair person. Write that you are seeking a help desk position.
Third, focus on your accomplishments for previous employers. If you have not held a job yet then focus on your accomplishments in volunteer work, personal projects, club projects, and so forth. The point is to show the employer what you have done in the past. This gives them an idea of what to expect from you in the future.
There are plenty of more very easy to understand tips like the ones listed above that will help making a resume.
