No matter how experienced you are, while applying for the next “dream” job of yours, the way you write your resume will tell a lot about what have you been learning in all these years of “Experience.” With hundreds of individuals applying for the same job as you, the interviewers are very likely to spend as little as about 6 seconds on your resume. Therefore, it is imperative that your resume stands out and has been created in the right manner. With very little time that employers have today, your resume must not be a long list of clustered stuff that serves little or no purpose.

Here are a few quick points on the Dos and Don’ts for your resume:

• Stick to the ‘single page’ rule.
• It’s never about the quantity. Your resume is not your grocery list, keep it brief!
• Check, and re-check your resume with eyes wide open!
• NEVER state a skill you don’t possess. Lies can hurt!
