DO'S AND DON'TS
www.resumetips2016.com
RESUME DO’S - Use Relevant Font
According to Resume trends 2016, font must
be:
 professional
 Classic
 Easy to Understand
Use only the fonts that are easy to read and
pleasing to the high.
RESUME DO’S – Tell Only the Truth
Telling the truth is one of the best
resume writing techniques.
The fact is that hiring managers will
easily find the truth that is why it is important
that you should not lie. Tell the facts about
your title, employment dates, salary history
and others.
RESUME DO’S – Get Social
Whether you have seen business
resumes 2016 or not, social aspect is a must-
be on your resume.
Be sure that you have a good online
presence to be notice. You should not forget to
include some links to your profile for easy
searching.
RESUME DO’S – Make Keywords Count
Including keywords in your resume will
help you a lot to stand out. Resumes for
dummies recommends you to use keywords as
each match of your experience as well as your
qualifications becomes your keyword that is
why you need to think carefully what to
include.
RESUME DO’S – Use Bullet Points
According to resume tips 2016, bullet
points are all the rage.
They help you to condense
information, thereby shortening your resume –
which is great for hiring managers. They also
make your resume look more presentable, and
they are a great way of emphasizing important
points.
 More Presentable
 Emphasize important points
 Haven’t you glanced here in the beginning
and than started to read the rest text? That’s
right.
RESUME DO’S – Begin On the Top
If you look through these job search
tips 2016, you will notice that Begin on the top
is in the list.
Be sure that you will be careful in using
tact, clarity and respect during whole process.
For job search, it is important to start at the
top and then go down.
RESUME DO’S – List Your Skills in the Top Fold
In the IT resume tips, list your skills in
the top fold so that the employer can easily
see them.
Don’t wait until the near end of your
resume before introducing your skills. In IT,
they are like a gold. There is not need to hide
them in the end of the sheet or on the next
page. Even though, you haven’t got as much
skills as you want to have, list them in the top
fold.
RESUME DO’S – Quantify Your Achievements and Responsibilities
Show proof by showing how much you
have achieved with statistics. You should not
make a vague and unclear resume that only
says so much about you, but fails to prove so.
Provide valuable insights about your
accomplishments and list these down with
bullet points, as one of the best resume writing
techniques. For instance, you have managed
employees. State how many employees you
did manage.
RESUME DO’S – Use Eye Catching Design
A resume that is packed with so much
content will be boring to read that is why
including a great design will help you in getting
the attention of the employer.
Resumes for dummies show that you can use
Arial, Calibri and other font size that is easy to
read. Make it one of the advantages of your
resume. Also, don’t forget to use different
colors, but always remember which color
stands for.
RESUME DO’S – Make It Sweet and Short
Making the resume sweet and short is
next essential DO when creating business
resumes 2016.
Time is essential that is why you need
to make your resume sweet and short. Hiring
managers and employers want to read a
resume that is concise and brief that is why
you need to avoid including useless or
unnecessary details.
RESUME DON’TS – Don’t Use The Photo
It’s really interesting thing, but
according to IT resume tips, you can skip the
photo. Experts say, that you don’t need to
include an image of yourself, according to
resume writers and experts, although you can
still do so if you find it necessary especially for
modeling jobs.
However, it’s always an advantage when hiring
manager can see your photo. Without it, you
can create wrong first expression. Even if you
have a lot of experience
RESUME DON’TS – Never Use a Prepackaged Template
Using a prepackaged template shows
you as lazy. Avoid that now. Resume tips 2016
show that far too many job seekers find a
prepackaged template on the Internet and
assume they can get away with using it.
RESUME DON’TS – Try Not to Use Upper Case Letters
Resume trends 2016 say that upper
case letters are not exactly the worst thing in
the world, but they are difficult to read and
should only be used in proper context and if
you really, REALLY feel that they would add
some value.
Otherwise, it will look as you have
some mental problems or you are just an angry
person. Both variants won’t help you for sure
RESUME DON’TS – Avoid Apologizing
If you have weaknesses in your resume,
do not apologize because it is normal. If you
believe that you can get additional experience
or education, do not think on shortcomings
instead be positive all the time.
In resumes for dummies you can see
that it’s totally normal to have weaknesses.
Another question is what you can do to
improve those weaknesses. And that’s what the
hiring managers are seeking.
RESUME DON’TS – Don’t Include Irrelevant Information
When it comes to the content of your
resume, you need to know what you should
include. In the resume, you need to have
personal information, objective, qualifications
summary, work experience, education and
references.
It is the simplest of resume writing
techniques, but there are people, who starts to
write names of their pets or how great they
spent last summer. Don’t be one of them.
RESUME DON’TS – Avoid the Common Formats
If you want to make one of the best
business resumes 2016 stop using common
formats.
There are many common formats that
applicants are using when they are applying
and you should avoid it. You need to know that
there is not exact format in writing the resume,
which means you can create your own.
Try to be unique in some ways for your
resume to be remembered by the employer or
hiring manager.
RESUME DON’TS – Limit Your Use of Pronouns
According to job search tips 2016, you
should try to limit your use of pronouns such
as “Me”, “I” and “My” as much as possible. If
you can, avoid them all together.
If, however, you’re including an
objective statement, you can include one or
two here. By the same token, objective
statements should only be used if you’re
confident that yours is not shallow.
RESUME DON’TS – Do Not List Responsibilities
Resume trends 2016 show that listing
your responsibilities is not necessary now and,
furthermore, can harm you.
The hiring manager would like to know
what you achieve and he does not want to
know your responsibilities because he knows it.
It is better to list achievements together with
figures.
