A guide to résumé writing is useful especially for jobs in Jamaica.
Résumé is a succinct summary of the applicant for a job. Most instances a well designed and co-ordinated resume fits on one page. At most two.
The secret to fitting it all on one or two pages is to design the résumé in columns and rows.
The MUST points of the résumé are
- Name
- Contact
- Objectives
- Experience (list most current one first)
- Education and Training (list most current one first)
- Special Skills
- Special Interests
- Hobbies
- 2 contact for recommendation
