5 Essential Elements of Your Resume

Canberra

If you are someone currently looking for a job, may you be a freshly minted graduate or a professional with decades of experience, your résumé should include five critical elements. Adding these parts will organise your resume and will focus on your keys to success and accomplishments, and you will present a complete and concise resume and increase your chance of landing the job you really aim for.

A Stand Out Professional Profile
Start your resume with a quick glimpse of your professional qualifications. Adding your specified skills and professional attributes will help the employer in moving you to the next step of the selection process. Resume evaluation will help the employer weed out those unfit candidates and if you have a standout professional profile summary, it will assure you a spot on the next round given that your skills exactly highlight what they are looking for.

Proof of Expertise or Core Competencies
This section will expound the soft skills you have mentioned in your summary. Also, this is the time you have to include all necessary skills you have gathered all throughout your education or your work experiences. The more specific this could be, the better. The employer will usually read this through and look for keywords relating to the role of the professional they are looking for.

Work and Any Relevant Experience
Most people focus intensely in this part without really emphasising the Key Achievements they earned within the specific role. Employers will be more interested in what you have accomplished rather than the duties and tasks you are hired for. This will give them a hint that you have reached and performed your duties as you have achieved something in return. This will answer their question on what you can offer for their company.

 

Education and other Qualifications
It is really vital to include your background for the employers to see how is your professional development in the course of time. This will not only include your education but also the trainings, conferences, certificates and other relevant events happened in your professional journey. Continuing education, on-the-job training and other nontraditional education should be included here as well.

Add Who You Are
You can also include your hobbies and interests on this part. It will give the employer a hint that you are a person who is passionate with something and that you can time manage very well. Moreover, adding your professional memberships and charitable institutions you are affiliated to will do the trick. This will also be something interesting to talk about if you land the next stage, which is interview.
