qWhen Job application writer creating a successful resume is about impressing employers
and increasing the chances of the applicant gaining an interview for the desired position.
qIn this day and age humans are all very much advertising aware consumers. Why
therefore, do we fail to approach our resume writing like we are producing a billboard on
the side of a busy highway?
qThe resume should be shouting out to potential employers but instead in many cases it is
more like a small advertisement buried amongst many similar advertisements in the
middle pages of a magazine.

submitted to suit the potential employer and job application.

qBalancing space and text – the resume writer uses bullet points to list information and
make the document easier to read than if there was large blocks of text.
qInclude normal margins – the professional resume writer is aware many employers write
notes in the margins of the resume for use in the interview and selection process so it is
important to provide adequate space for this.

consulted prior to being listed.

to sending it so that it maintains the desired formatting when opened by the potential
employer.
