Getting Your Resume Updated


posted by: Patrice Fagnant-MacArthur

I have been working on my resume lately. It is one of those things I've had on my to-do list for ages, but keep putting off. I'm not actively searching for a new job, but it is good to always have one ready in case the opportunity arises or in the event you find yourself suddenly out of work. It is also good as a tool to help you look over your work life and see what you have accomplished and where you would like to go.

So, I finally bit the bullet, took some books out of my local library on resume writing and got to work. If your resume is in need of updating (or if you have never put one together), this might be the perfect time. It can be intimidating to summarize your life and accomplishments in one or two pages, but once you get going, the process is really relatively painless.

If you would like more information on how to put together a resume, check out: http://jobsearch.about.com/od/resumes/a/aa040801a.htm. They had links to many good resources. Your local library, career center, or college career office can also be a tremendous help.

Also, once your resume is completed, be sure to have someone else look it over. This is one time when spelling and grammar and the impression you put forth definitely matter.
