These articles on writing resumes came at the perfect time. I am currently trying to update my resume. The points made in these articles were of value to me because I feel like somewhere in between learning how to write essays and papers I missed the day we were taught how to put together a resume. Whenever I sit down to write a resume I always draw a blank and even when I finish it, it looks bland and boring.
I especially appreciated the article on common resume mistakes. It seems as though I never know how to word certain tasks I did at other jobs. I also worry I’m not being the most honest I can be in resumes. The article doesn’t suggest lying but marketing yourself in such a way that is appealing to the person hiring you for the job. It’s nice to have a source to tell you what’s good resume etiquette and how to compile a proper resume to your best advantage.
