Many of us wish we were in a better-paid or more interesting job but don't know how to start looking for something else. If this describes you, the first thing you need to do is update your resume. A resume is a tool that can be used to obtain a job interview. Along with a cover letter, it is the first impression a prospective employee makes on a potential employer. Therefore, it is important that a resume provide as much relevant information as possible while remaining brief. A resume should be no more than two sides of A4 paper. Make it any longer and it won't get read. A resume must be neatly typed, with at least inch margins on all four sides. Use underlining, capital letters, and asterisks to highlight important information. A resume should be single-spaced with an extra line of space between blocks of information. Begin a résumé with your name, address, and home and business telephone numbers. Do not include age, marital status, or other personal facts. Next, many résumés list a career goal, followed by a chronological outline of work experience, starting with the most recent job and working backward including a brief description of relevant duties and skills. Finally, include an outline of your educational background from the most recent backward. Include dates, schools, and diplomas awarded. Before you send it, make sure you check your spelling and grammar, or get someone else to go over it if you can.
