The All Important Do’s and Don’ts for a Resume

 1) No typographical errors :

This shows a lack of attention to detail. Using spell-check is not enough. In addition to personally proofreading your resume, ask two friends, family members or trusted coworkers to proofread it. You have worked so closely on your resume that you may miss obvious typos.

2) Punctuation and grammar must be perfect :
An important part of any executive job is communication skills. Would you hire someone who is unable to communicate effectively in writing? You will represent this company to its clients and competitors. Demonstrate that you are an effective communicator before the interview. If you fail in this requirement, you may never reach the first interview.
3) Be concise :
Be respectful of the time of the person reading your resume. If an accomplishment can be stated in two sentences, don’t use five. You will have the opportunity to discuss the details during the interview.
