JCOM 2160 Reading 2

After looking at all this resume advice I definitely think I need to redo mine! There were a lot of good tips throughout the readings. One thought was mentioned a couple times, it said that every line on your resume is there to get you and interview. I thought that was great because that is your ultimate goal. It was interesting that it was recommended to put a link of your resume on your Facebook, Twitter and other accounts. More and more employers are looking at people’s web accounts and finding more information about individuals. Something interesting that I didn’t know was that you shouldn’t put references on your resume unless requested to do so, and if it is requested bring a separate sheet in just for references. I loved how resumes were compared to first dates, list your good qualities but not all of them, leave them hanging, the interview is where you really need to shine.
