Resume Overview
A resume is a way of showcasing your experiences, education and skills. It is a marketing tool that plays
a crucial part in getting noticed by an employer and secures future interviews. If you were to Google the
word ‘resume’ you would be given millions of websites from how to write resume, tips on building a
resume or even people willing to make one for you for a monetary fee (word to the wise, don’t pay a
stranger to write your resume. It never turns out well and recruiters will notice it immediately).
Writing a quality resume begins with a targeted one-page summary of your skills and experiences that
convinces the employer you would be successful in that position. It should be honest, positive, concise and
easy to read.
Resumes answer the employer’s question, “What can this candidate do for my organization?” Consider the
following:
What are your marketable skills?
What special qualities do you have that set you apart from others?
What is your goal(s) and how have you achieved it so far?
What are some tasks and projects you have been involved with?
How are you involved in school? In your community?
When have you demonstrated leadership skills and exhibited good team player skills?
How would others describe you in school? At work? At home?
Why do you want to work for this company? In this industry?

Build Your Bullet Points
Bullet points describe your experiences to the questions from the Resume Overview section. Answers to
these questions and examples of each bullet point can be broken down into 3 categories:
1. What did you do? SITUATION
Examples can include work experience, internships, volunteering, clubs/organizations, research
projects, sports, etc.
2. How did you do it? ACTION
The steps you took or techniques you used to achieve the end result.
3. What was the result? ACHIEVEMENT
Show measurable results whenever possible. Quantify your achievements- numbers stand out
in resumes and speak in volumes to employers in hiring.
It can be easy to state what you did in a particular job but the more important part is telling the reader
how good you are at what you did. Your descriptions should be stated in terms of what value you were
able to add in a tangible and quantifiable manner.
Your goal is to write accomplishment statements that always start with a unique action verb and are
direct in explaining what steps you took or the techniques you used to achieve the result.
Action Verbs
Using strong action verbs help to compose concise, persuasive, reader-centered resumes, cover letters, or
other types of professional correspondence. The examples below are to assist you in describing your
experiences and achievements.

Target Your Resume to the Job
There is no ‘one size fits all’ when it comes to resumes. A resume is often the first impression you make on a
potential employer so you want to stand out from the other resumes. This chapter has all been about how you
can answer the employer’s question, “What can this candidate do for my organization?” You want to answer the
question by representing the skills you have and how it can address the company’s need.
Things to remember when writing a targeted resume:
Don’t Assume That the Employer Will “Know What You Mean”
You need to be specific in what you can bring to the employer and showcase how you have used the skill
previously.
Be Consistent!
Your resume needs to be easy to read so the easier you make it for the employer to see how you are the
right fit for the job the better.
Take Ownership of Your Accomplishments
Action verbs demonstrate your achievements but your resume should be a testament to all that you have
done…and you have always done more than you think!
Let a Job Position Be Your Guide
Read the skills and qualifications listed in a job posting and underline the words that match your
experience. Read the job responsibilities and circle the words that match your experience. Review the
matches and ask when you are faced a similar task and how you applied these skills then put those
examples on your resume.
By tailoring your resume for each company you are applying to, you give them no doubt that you are the best
person for the job.
A great resume takes time and the Center for Career Development is available to help you at every step along
the way!
