5 Quick Resume Tips

  1. typewriterMake it easy to read: Use a plain font in 10- to 12-point type.
  2. Focus on information that is relevant to the employer and the job.
  3. Keep your resume short: In general, a new grad’s resume should be one side of a single page, but can run longer if your experiences and skills are relevant to the job.
  4. Include keywords taken directly from the job description.
  5. Quantify your results, if possible.
