Are Free Sample Resumes an Ideal Template?

Resumes Articles No Comments »

You can write your own resume. Writing one is not as hard as you may think. Sure, it is probably not your favorite thing to do, but there are plenty of free sample resumes on the internet or in document programs, such as MS Word, that can help you to understand the proper resume format.

With most programs, you simply have to fill in the blanks. It is as easy as that to create an effective resume. Before long you will be confidently embarking on resume distribution to potential employers. Give the software engineers who designed the programs a chance to help you.

Microsoft Word offers templates that are standard components with their Office products. When you open Word, you are given the option of opening a document. You can choose New document and a template appears.

Choose the curriculum vitae template and go from there. If you do not have Microsoft Word, then you can still find resume templates and curriculum vitae samples on the internet. One great place to visit is QuintCareers. They offer a variety of formats from which to choose.

One of the downsides to finding free sample resumes on the internet is that they are often just a picture. They are not a template like Word utilizes. You cannot type in your information.

They are simply designed so that you can see what your curriculum vitae should look like, but then you must reconstruct it in a word processing software program. Some may provide the proper parameters for indentation, but don’t count on this being the case.

Ideally, everyone should take a class on writing resumes. However, some people may think that they will never need one. There are some jobs that only require an application to be filled out. But, if you think you should be prepared with an effective resume, then there are some online programs that will allow you to enter the required information into the appropriate fields and, once finished, it will create your document for you.

There is nothing worse than searching the online job banks, finding your dream job and knowing that you are qualified, only to have your hopes dashed because you can’t apply. Always be prepared by having your updated cover letter and curriculum vitae all set to go.

Wilkipedia is a great resource for definitions on what types of resumes are best for your needs. You can also find links that will take you to free sample resumes.

Just remember that you need to save the information for the future, in case your contact and job information changes. Otherwise, you may wind up recreating the entire document from scratch, if you haven’t saved a copy on your hard drive.

Smart Resumes

Resumes Articles No Comments »

When filling out the employment history section of your resume, you will want to record some bullet points on what you did. For many people, there is a tendency to use expressions such as ‘responsible for’, ‘involved in’, ‘worked on’, etc. But the potential employer, when reading your resume, is really looking to see what you achieved, how much money you made or how much money you saved. In other words, the potential employer is looking for ‘what’s in it for him’ if he takes you on to fill the vacancy. He wants the benefits.

The result is that you need to focus your resume any more specifically on what the potential employer is really looking for.

Now, everyone in business is trained to use SMART criteria in almost all areas of their work. The general interpretation of these smart criteria is often taken to mean, S for specific, M for measurable, A for achievable, R for relevant and T for timely.

If we translate these smart criteria into the world of resumes we could interpret them as follows for each of your achievement bullet points:

- Firstly, be Specific in what you actually did. Do not talk about activities going on around you, but be clear on what you did and what you personally achieved.

- Secondly, make what you achieved to be Measurable. Here you should use numbers of dollars for savings, or percentage increases in productivity, or percentage measures for efficiency savings, etc.

- Then, say what you actually Achieved in clear and simple English.

- Make sure what you say you achieved is still Relevant. Be aware that things you did 10 years ago may seem commonplace or even rather dated now. So, if you cannot make it relevant in some way to enhance your current value than the best left out.

- Finally, assert how you achieved whatever you did in a Timely manner. Perhaps you beat the competition, or maybe you met the deadline, or maybe it was somehow appropriate at that time. You need to use your own judgment here.

You will notice that in writing your employment history to meet these smart criteria, that you will be using what are often called ‘action words’. These are simply words that say what you did. Examples of these words are ‘trained’, ‘developed’, ‘ managed’, ‘ conducted’, etc. and a list goes on.

Let us now take an example of what I mean in the real life situation. Supposing you had an achievement in your employment history like:

* Responsible for supervising a small team of programmers to install a set of changes to a departmental system as part of an overall cost review exercise in the organization. This was due to the economic downturn. The effect was to increase departmental productivity and save staff costs.

Instead, using our SMART criteria, you might change it to something like:

* Managed, developed and implemented a systems project to a tight 3 month deadline, which resulted in a reduction of operating costs of $60,000 per year.

We can quickly check that it does indeed meet the smart criteria discussed above. Firstly it is much more specific than the original few sentences. It’s more concise and succinct. Secondly, it uses numbers for both time and cost. These are measures that are precise. Thirdly, the sentence show now clearly what you actually achieved. That is you managed, developed and implemented the project. Notice also the use of these ‘action words’. Notice too how the subject of relevance is actually skirted around. Instead of bothering about what the nature of system was, you are focusing instead on the project nature of the task and the fact that you completed it on time. The system itself may indeed be out-dated, but the fact that you can run a project is still current and relevant. Finally, the timely nature of the project is borne out by the fact that the cost saving was made and also that the project met the 3 month deadline.

As you can see, the use of SMART criteria helps in many ways to structure and make sense of your employment history and also make it relevant to today’s environment.

Three Steps to a Resume With the Power to Influence

Resumes Articles No Comments »

As a professional resume strategist, clients from around the globe share their existing resumes. I see resumes that are unproductively sparse and contain nothing that might entice a recruiter. I see resumes that are equally unproductively dense, containing every little, tiny, itseebitsee thing the person ever completed, provided and maybe even dreamed, that still contains nothing that might entice a recruiter. The authors range from students to seasoned professionals, from clerical to health workers, educators to trades people, from financial whizzes to organizational gurus. Most people, it seems, have no idea what belongs, and just as importantly, what does not belong in their resumes.

Hans Hofmann, an abstract expressionist painter, uttered these now famous words, “The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.” The key words for the job-seeker about to embark on updating a resume are “eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.” Hofmann shared those words with art students; however, that approach will undoubtedly lend your resume the power of a true work of art-the power to influence.

Three Steps to Eliminating the Unnecessary:

Step 1: It astounds me how often, when asking a client about one of the bullets on his or her resume, the client responds, “Oh, I haven’t really done that; it was just one of the things on my job description.” I can imagine the thoughts of the interviewer who got that answer in a job interview, and those thoughts are not assessing the candidate as stellar. Including something you have never done shows lack of strategy and evaluation of material, and by inference, perhaps a lack of good material, or at the very least, a lack of judgment. Eliminate the “I wish had done that” material.

Step 2: The next step to purging the unneeded, unwanted and unproductive on your resume is to remove everything that doesn’t relate to the job you are applying for. Think of it this way: some information represents what you once did, but if it doesn’t build your case for the position applied for referring to it will keep you stuck in that old position. The purpose of that material is past, and remaining stuck on it may just keep you stagnant.

Imagine that you are stepping up to an Executive Sales, Account Management sort of role. What good would it do you to continue including information from long-past roles, such as: cash register, open and close; tidying store after customers leave? That information paints you not as a super-sales person, but as a good retail clerk. Highlight your sales abilities, how you dominate your store’s, or perhaps the chain’s, statistics in highest monthly sales, in highest add-on sales, in highest repeat customer sales. Eliminate the “I also do unrelated work” material.

Step 3: Eliminate your hobbies, outside activities and religious affiliations. These rarely have a place on a resume. No one cares that you enjoy gardening, going to the movies, or spending time with family. Resume real-estate is expensive. You have one or two pages in which to convince the reader that you are an excellent candidate. Don’t waste that space on details that don’t even get read.

Each and every bullet and indeed every word on your resume must be considered; that is, you must actually think about each and every word, phrase, and point you are making. If it doesn’t build your case as a stellar candidate for the job, with related skills, relevant education and perfectly suited additional value, out it goes. Create your own work of art – influence the reader, by allowing the “necessary to speak.”

Do Resumes Need to Include Months of Employment?

Resumes Articles No Comments »

As a resume writer, I was always taught that resumes did not need to include months of employment, years alone were sufficient.

Nevertheless, recently, more and more companies and recruiters have begun demanding use of months claiming that by not using them, applicants are either “lying” or “hiding something.” I spoke to a hiring manager recently who said, “I want to be aware of any possible gaps in employment.”

This comment struck me as odd, so I questioned her some more on it. “OK, so you find out the candidate was out of work for two or three months in 2000. What does that do for you?”

Her answer: “I drop them from consideration.”

I have to admit that I was stunned by that. As a former hiring manager, I cannot recall a time when I used a two-month gap in employment against someone, particularly someone who was otherwise qualified to work for me.

In fact, my thinking on that has always been, “but for the grace of God, go I.” Who knows when that could have been me?

Let’s face it. You could have numerous reasons for having employment gaps of less than a year. Health reasons, either because of you or a family member being one of them. Now who wants to put that on their resume “I was out of work because I had a major medical issue” or because “my spouse was sick.”

So I responded to my hiring manager friend, “what if the candidate explained the job gap on the resume? For instance, they put something like “laid off from Jan. to Mar. 2000″ or “medical sabbatical.” Would that make a difference?”

Her answer: “Probably not.”

My reply: “No wonder people lie on their resumes then.”

In another scenario, I was having a conversation with a recruiter who was bemoaning the lack of months on most candidates’ resumes. In this case, my recruiter friend made an interesting point: “If they leave off months, then a candidate can easily make one year look like two.”

He then gave me a scenario:

XYZ Company: 2006-Present (but with months: Mar. 2006-Present)

ABC Company: 2004-2006 (but with months: Dec. 2004-Mar. 2006)

LMN Company: 2002-2004 (but with months: Jan. 2002-Nov. 2004)

His point was that if you look at the ABC Company listing, without the years, it looks like the candidate worked there 2 years when in fact it was only 16 months.

Again, my reply: “OK, so it was 16 months instead of 24. Otherwise, the client has had a steady work history. What difference does it make to the employer to know this? I mean, can’t you find this all out when you ask the candidate to fill out a more extensive job application?”

His answer: “We want to know what people are hiding.”

My reply: “I’m confused. What is this client hiding exactly?”

His answer: “Eight months of employment at ABC Company.”

My reply: “So what difference does that make in evaluating this candidate to determine whether you want to interview him or her?”

It seems to me we have all forgotten the main intent of the resume: to review a candidate’s background and decide whether you would like to move forward. After all, if a candidate is well qualified and seems to meet your needs but you are concerned about the actual dates of employment for some reason, isn’t that something you could just…ask?

Maybe it is just me, but I am having a hard time understanding how the lack of months is the great differentiator. In the case of my recruiter’s candidate, adding dates would not be a big deal. (Unless, of course, you see that “gap” from Nov. 2004 to Dec. 2004, and you just need to know how many days elapsed in there!). But in the previous case with my hiring manager, if a candidate showed a two-month gap, he or she wasn’t even up for consideration! So what is a job seeker in this situation to do?

It seems reasonable to me that applicants should have some room for providing their background in the best light without being accused of “lying” or “hiding something.” They should also not be stuck in a position where they feel they have to divulge personal information like an illness or family issue in the hopes that a hiring manager will be OK with that explanation.

I recognize that hiring managers/recruiters and the like are tired of uncovering lies later on in the process after a candidate is hired, but there has to be some room for middle ground.

Resumes With Impact

Resumes Articles No Comments »

A resume is a work of art and therefore needs a plan and structure. Ensure your resume is packed with facts allowing a prospective employer to make an informed decision and generating enough interest for you to be invited to an interview.

Make your resume as punchy as possible. Try to stick to 3-4 pages – you would not want it to be an epic! Try to use bullets as much as possible – it is easier on the eye and attracts attention.

Provide a short career overview of about 2 to 4 lines. This tells the employer what you have done and also informs the employer what to expect from you. It might also be a good idea to include your plans and what you want to achieve in the role you are applying for i.e. your unique selling proposition. Hey – this might get you the interview and the job!

For each position that you have held, follow the STAR approach depicted below. I know you may be wondering that STAR approach should be followed to answer behavioural questions, but it works well in resumes as well. Believe me!

Provide details about your education. It is generally adequate to provide details about your tertiary education. However if you have achieved extraordinary results in academic and non-academic activities, and demonstrated skills relevant to the role you are applying for – by all means state that in your resume. Who knows, the hiring manager may have similar interests or may have been to the same grammar school!

Tweak your resume to for each role. If you need to restructure your resume to bring pertinent sections of your resume to the first page, do it. The first few sections of your resume are very important, so make sure you don’t end up in the recycle bin too soon.

9 Tips For Turning Your Insurance Sales Resume Into a Winner

Resumes Articles No Comments »

Whether you are a longtime insurance agent or new to the profession, the pointers below are sure to boost the effectiveness of your insurance sales resume.

1. PROOFREAD CAREFULLY. Any good insurance agent must have an eye for detail. Your resume is your first impression, and if it is riddled with careless mistakes or poor grammar, you can be sure your potential employer will choose from among the other candidates. Have a friend or colleague proofread your resume before you submit it, since it can be difficult to catch your own errors.

2. LET THEM KNOW YOU CAN SELL. Sure your education is important, and your job experience counts for something too, but your employer really wants someone who can close sales. Indeed, regardless of your qualifications, it is your ability to make a sale that will most impress. So make sure your resume highlights your salesmanship.

3. SAY IT WITH NUMBERS. Whenever you have a chance, quantify your accomplishments in numeric form. Include your GPA (if greater than 3.5), closing percentages, corporate rankings, etc. Anytime you have a number that positively represents your ability, put down on paper.

4. STREAMLINE FOR EASY SKIMMING. Supposedly the typical hiring manager devotes less than twenty seconds to a resume. It merely takes a quick skim to efficiently narrow the pool of applicants to a more manageable level. Make sure your most important information stands out so you make the initial cut.

5. DON’T SKIMP ON DETAILS. You want your resume to be easy to read, using lists and bullet points, but you also want enough substance to hold a reader’s attention a second time through. Adding detailed content helps a reader form a more accurate picture of you, and really brings your insurance sales resume to the next level.

6. STICK TO STANDARD FONTS AND STAY AWAY FROM MS WORD TEMPLATES. Word templates are now ubiquitous and overused. If you want your resume to stand apart from others, then take the time to design your own resume. A simple design is sufficient. Additionally, resist the urge to use fancy fonts in an effort to get noticed. Instead stick to a standard typeface. You don’t want your resume to be difficult to read, and you definitely don’t want the font to be the most memorable part of your resume.

7. MENTION EXTRACURRICULARS AND ACHIEVEMENTS. Whether you lecture on financial literacy or have a black belt in karate, you should put it on your insurance resume. Activities and achievements help you stand out and show you are driven and capable.

8. CUSTOMIZE EACH INSURANCE SALES RESUME. Don’t merely make one resume to use. Instead, customize each resume specifically for the job you seek. Take time to learn about the company to which you are applying and use what you find to make your resume more personalized and attractive.

9. DON’T SKIMP ON STATIONERY. Using quality paper makes a big difference. An insurance resume printed on thick, textured stationery is much more impressive than one on a flimsy sheet of paper. Like a handshake, the resume makes your first impression.

Resumes – US Vs French

Resumes Articles No Comments »

Mirror, mirror on the wall who is the fairest of them all? The issue of someone’s physical appearance affecting whether or not they get a job offer is not new. In fact, there have been many cases in which this has been a central issue. I was given an assignment in one of my classes, which involved me reading about a woman who was preparing to apply for a job. She spoke about putting her résumé together. She needed to decide what to say about her previous jobs, which picture of herself to include, etc. This shocked me. She was not only required to include a photograph of herself in her résumé, but she also had to state whether she was single or married. This is simply unheard of in the U.S. However, in France it is considered normal.

I brought this matter up in class the next day because I was curious about whether she was looking for a job or a date for Friday night. My professor said that although requiring that type of information to be included would be considered to be a form of discrimination in the U.S, it is not viewed that way in France. I found the prospect of being required to submit such information offensive, and I was feeling quite pleased to live in a country that does not require that type of information to be included in a résumé. A moment later, I was faced with a rather harsh reality check. My professor said that we do the same things here in the U.S.; we are just more subtle about it. If you just look at someone’s résumé, you can discover pretty much the same things that a photo will tell you. For instance, often times a person’s name will reveal what their nationality is. If you look at the date of their graduation, you can guess their age pretty accurately. The rest will all be revealed at the job interview.

The French like to know about the whole package before they hire a person. That is why their résumés typically include how many children they have, their marital status, etc. This gives the potential employer a better idea of where the person is in his/her life. There is more to life than merely working for a living and, whether we would like to admit it or not, personal lives do affect work lives. For instance, someone who is single may have more freedom to switch jobs due to having fewer personal obligations than a married person. This may lead to a higher turnover rate than if the company hired more married people. A more typical concern for women is that companies will discriminate against them if they feel that the women are likely to become pregnant. This concerns American’s because they see that type of information as something that could cause discrimination during the hiring process.

American’s try to keep their work lives separate from their private lives. Their résumés contain their various accomplishments such as awards received, jobs held, degrees awarded, etc. They are not typically personal in nature. The goal is to show what you have done, not who you are. After a potential employer decides that the accomplishments are suitably impressive, the individual is invited on an interview. This is where the individual will display his/her personal traits. Although, the interview usually focuses on what the person is like to work with, not what they do in their spare time. This makes the potential employee feel like he/she is being evaluated solely on his/her professional abilities.

The issue of discrimination during the hiring process is an important one; however, it is important to note that very few companies will hire someone without having met with them at least once. Most, if not all, of these personal questions will be answered by the end of that meeting, even if there are no specific questions asked regarding them. Discrimination in the work place and during the hiring process will always be an issue, but it is not necessarily a very personal résumé that will keep an individual from obtaining a job. It may keep them from obtaining an interview though.

Why Sample Cover Letters Are a Bad Idea

Resumes Articles No Comments »

Are you looking for sample cover letters? It’s never a bad thing to look at examples in order to get an idea of what they look like. However, if you’re looking for samples so that you can copy one to use if for yourself, I would say that is a bad idea. You might be surprised that I’d say that. However, the reason is because cover letters essentially sell your resume. The resume tells the employer who you are, and the letter tells them why they should hire you. Your letter needs to be very personal, and stock samples often won’t do the trick.

If you really want to make a cover letter that is going to produce some serious results (and who doesn’t?), then you need to apply some simple marketing strategies to writing it. Don’t let your eyes glaze over just yet – these are really simple strategies I’m talking about! Things like using testimonials and postscripts (P.S.) are incredibly powerful, and are only two of the many different ways you can give your cover letter a tremendous boost. Simply by re-wording something you may already have in there, the words can jump up off the page at the reader, insisting that they give you a call, instead of getting tossed directly in the circular filing cabinet.

Applying marketing techniques doesn’t require a degree; it just requires looking at your cover letter from a different perspective. Instead of using the space in your letter for mundane formalities like everyone else does, consider how you might say things differently if you were using your cover letter to sell your resume. You’ll be surprised how a different perspective gets different results!

Military Resume – What is Your Objective?

Resumes Articles No Comments »

One very important part of your transition from military service to a civilian career involves creating your military resume. It’s essential for you to translate your military skills and experiences into a language that civilian employers can understand.

Your military transition resume involves many bits and pieces that, when viewed as a whole, outline who you are, what your experience is, and whether or not you’re a good “fit” for the job opening for which you are applying.

The first thing employers see on your military resume is the OBJECTIVE. This is your chance to grab their attention. Fail here and no matter how qualified you might be for the job, your resume will not get read any further. You must pass this first hurdle in the process before you can hope to move on. The Objective is that important (stomp, stomp) get it? So…What is your Objective?

Only you can determine what your real objective is. Before writing your resume, pause and think about the career you’re pursuing. Ask yourself these questions:

Which career path am I pursuing and why?
Which job position am I applying for?
What are my goals in regard to my job search?

Your Objective should align with your answers to the questions above. Have you been told that an Objective isn’t necessary or should be avoided altogether–the purpose of which is to leave you “open” to all available job postings? Don’t believe everything you hear!

You’re first step should be to front load your military transition resume with a specific job title Objective. This is the only way to let an employer know what you want, and not make them guess. For example:

OBJECTIVE: To obtain a position as an IT Manager with XYZ Company which will utilize my considerable IT and management skills.

Writing your Objective in this fashion shows an employer that you are serious about the position. It proves that you have done some homework on the company, and that you appreciate the time associated with the vetting process.

Don’t be afraid to use the EXACT job title in your Objective that’s used by the company advertising the position. You’ll find the exact wording to use from the job board, website, newspaper, etc. where you found the job advertisement.

Said a different way, your military resume Objective should include the job title that you are applying for EXACTLY as the employer wrote it in the advertisement. Do this and you’ll be sure to get the employer’s attention and move your resume to the short list of contenders.

By writing a specific job Objective on your resume, you will:

Automatically stand out from the crowd
Show you are serious about your job search
Communicate that you’re a person who can make a decision
Increase the odds of having the rest of your resume read
Get the job you really want

Honestly, you’d be surprised at how many people fail to specify their Objective or fail to provide an Objective at all on their military resume. Now you know better.

Is it time to update your resume with a powerful, specific Objective? Do it today and your resume won’t find its way into the circular file!
