How Your Free Resume Review Is Determined
Resume Summary
When evaluating a resume summary, our team of professional and executive resume writers are looking to make sure your resume includes a balance of appropriate SEO resume keyterms and professional attributes that help you stand out from other job applicants. Additionally, our Certified Professional Resume Writers are looking to make sure your resume actually includes a professional summary, as opposed to a resume objective statement. Do people still use resume objective statements? The answer should be no. Real estate on a professional resume is limited, so using the top of your resume for a professional resume summary is a far more effective and efficient use of space. When crafting your professional summary, make sure to showcase your hard and soft skills, as well as some keywords specific to the kinds of positions you want to pursue.
Resume Content
When it comes to your resume content, and what kind of resume content you should use, our team of professional resume writers are looking for a combination of clarity, quantitative information, and utilization of appropriate language. In conjunction with our in-house research group and partner recruiting firms, we have found that resume content constructed in the format of a situation, action, and result, is the most effective – both for applicant tracking systems and hiring managers. Constructing your resume content in bullet form and using the situation, action, and result equation is the best way to ensure your resume stands out in a pool of job applicants.
Resume SEO Value
Making sure your resume is optimized for search engines (SEO) is very important in today’s digital world. All resumes nowadays go through an applicant tracking system (ATS) before landing on a hiring manager’s desk, so it is crucial to make sure your resume includes all the appropriate key terms and words needed to beat the computer. Does my resume have all the SEO key terms needed? Good question. Our team of professional resume writers will determine this on your free resume evaluation and free resume review.
Resume Word Count
Your resume must have enough content and word count in order for it to be optimized for applicant tracking systems (ATS) and search engines (SEO). Having been in the professional resume writing and career services space for more than a decade, our team has worked closely with our in-house research group and partner recruiters to determine the optimal word count per page on a resume. Our team of expert resume writers will provide feedback on whether your resume reaches this number in your free resume review.
Resume Formatting & Resume Layout
The ideal resume formatting is very important. While it may look nice to include charts and photos on your resume, a computer cannot read these resume elements (yet) and so it is always best to use a simple resume format that allows your experience and accomplishments to speak for themselves. How is my resume formatting? Another great question. Our team of resume writers will provide feedback on your resume formatting and resume layout.
