Kevin Varnes Resume Comments

Hello all of my FirstTeam bloggers. I think we are on a roll now! This is a great place to share resume ideas and to check out some informing videos about how to properly compose an effective resume. I took a look at what youtube has to offer and their are plenty of ideas and examples that everyone should take a look at. I wanted to share some thoughts with everyone on creating a good and effective resume. I have a friend of the family who is a very successful and well established CPA in the Naples area. He started is own auditing firm and ran it successfully for over twenty years. Now I believe that everyone who is in the position to hire has their own method of reviewing a resume, and maybe professor you can comment on this, when he looked over the hundreds of resumes' the most important thing to him was that is was very short and concise. He explained to me that he never wanted to spend more than five seconds looking at it. He knew right where to look and what to look for. If it looked like a book to him or longer than one page, in the shredder. If you passed the first five seconds your resume would make it to the pile on his desk for a phone call and an interview to follow. As he told me, he had work to do and money to make. Oh, and always hire people smarter than you!
