Tips for a Profile & Resume








Make your resume stand out with a profile.




There is no need to pay someone to create a resume for you, especially when there is no guarantee you will get a job offer. Make your resume stand out from the others with a personal profile. Like a profile on a social networking site, your professional profile lists key pieces of information about your qualifications and explains how you can benefit the company.

    • Place your professional profile on your resume under your name and contact information on the first page. This placement allows recruiters to get a glimpse of what they can expect to see in your resume.

    Profile Formatting

    • Unlike a paragraph about your career objectives, a profile should have information about you listed as bullet points.

    Things to Include in a Professional Profile

    • Use the profile as a way for others to learn more about your qualifications. Preferred Resumes' website suggests including skills, traits accomplishments and your career focus. If you are shifting your career focus because you have a new interest or because you moved, the profile is a good place to explain this. Young Money's website newsletter recommends thinking of this section as the condensed version of your full resume that highlights how your traits match what employers want.

    Font and Text Size

    • Save fancy fonts for party invitations and use a font that is easy to read on your resume, such as Arial or New Times Roman. Resume Resource states your font size should be at least 14 or 16 for your name, and the rest of the text should be 11 or 12---no greater, no smaller.

    What to Include on a Resume

    • On a resume, include objectives that are strong and clear, and avoid clichés. Additionally, make sure there is a connection between your objectives and the rest of the resume; this will show steps you have made to achieve your goals. Use industry-specific terminology and keywords to show your proficiency in the field.
