Writing a Resume by Brett Diamond




I am sure we are all aware by now how to write an effective resume, but we can always be reminded. This video allows the viewers to have fun while learning about resume writing. The first thing one should put on their resume is their own name. It should be the first thing the reader sees and they should remember it. As you move on down the resume, be sure to put in bold that more important facts. If where you worked is important, place that in bold, or if what you did was more important, be sure to bold that. Near the end if there is space, be sure to include references for the employer to call. It is also important to show the employer what you are skilled at, and interest/hobbies that may help you receive the job over other applicants.

  2. Good job. You need more white space and perhaps a discussion of the pros and cons of that objective line at the top of a resume. Some people say it is good to write one; others say it isn't. Your information was a very general. Do you think your readers already know this? Why would you tell them something they already know?
