Dear Chaobo,
To start with first you have to go trough the advert for a job position you want to apply for. Than pick up their key requirements and see if you can meet them. If you think that you can apply, then you are able to start preparing yourself to write a Resume.
I will give you a couple of basic advices. First you need to know that the purpose of your Resume is not to get you a job; it is there to get you an interview with a hiring manager.
When a hiring manager takes your Resume and starts reading it, you have 15-20 second to attract his/her attention. So, the most important part of any Resume is Objective or Summary Heading. In order to achieve that try to write the most interesting and persuasive facts about you. Writing an excellent opening statement of this kind is gathering experience and skills into phrases that demonstrate your qualifications for the new job position.
After that try to list all your relevant past experience making “Employment” heading in chronological order, starting from the recent one. When I mentioned relevant it means to concentrate on bringing benefit to the employer throughout concise, results-oriented and measurable statements.
Then list all relevant education in brief with the name of your college/school, city where is the college/school, year of your graduation, degree and field of study.
If you can try to indicate as well some awards, publications, community/voluntary service, special achievements, certifications or anything else that is relevant to the job position you are applying for.
A couple of advises at the end:
- Be clear in your vocabulary,
- Be optimistic showing incentive,
- Avoid grammar errors and low quality paper,
- When you are printing your Resume, always use the best quality paper. It can be from 50gsm up to 100gsm. Do not use glossy paper! Use only mat paper. Keep your printed version away from damages.
