		<description>Build a basic resume worksheet to work from. Put down EVERYTHING that may or may not be required in all, but so you have it ready. 

For each job for which you want to apply, tailor a resume specifically for that job and that employer. Don&#039;t fall into the habit of &quot;one-resume-fits-all&quot; because they don&#039;t. Everyone else does that and you DO NOT want to look like everyone else.

Do your research about the job and the employer.

Use the same catch phrasing in your resume as is used in the job listing.</description>

		<description>When building a resume:

If you have the job history, don&#039;t be shy about putting it in there. Most candidates with over 10 years in a field (specially technology) are going to have done a lot of different things. 

If one page can&#039;t do you justice, do what does. Some jobs really can&#039;t be explained in 10 words or less. With engineering or technical resumes, brevity can be your enemy, preventing your exposure to things that might be you.

List education and specialized training, to support the job experiences you had. It reinforces that your experience was tempered by training (&amp; vice versa), showing that you were willing to learn how things were supposed to work before you and Microsoft or Sun or Oracle, got together and made it do something new.

If you were in a job for 3 years or more in the technology industry, (where longevity &amp; commitment is commonly boohoo&#039;d as a lack of exposure), show teams and different experiences within that &quot;job title&quot; as roles. What role did you have when you worked on that special project? This will help an interviewer and resume reviewer understand that you did keep growing in technical knowledge, even though you chose not to job hop.</description>
