How strong is your résumé?

by Josh Doody

It’s not just HR who is looking at your résumé! I sit down with Eric to dissect this résumé from an HR and Developer perspective.

Learn what hiring managers are looking for when they review your résumé!

Key takeaways

• Your “objective” or “positioning” statement should be a short paragraph. If you want to share more about yourself and your qualifications for this role, that’s what your cover letter is for.
• Make your résumé skimmable. The hiring manager will probably be in a hurry, so make it easy to skim your résumé for the most relevant information.
• Make your résumé longer because you have to, not because you can.
• When listing your experience, choose the most pertinent activities and describe how they benefited the business whenever possible.
• Tailor your résumé to the particular job posting by mimicking the job posting language whenever possible.
