Tips before you download

  1. Read every line out loud once — it is the fastest way to catch typos.
  2. Make sure every job has a month and year for start and end dates.
  3. Keep it to one page unless you have 10+ years of relevant experience.
  4. Save the file as FirstName-LastName-Resume.pdf and send Word only if the employer asks for it.
  5. Run the final file through the resume checker before you apply.
