Resume Star Tips

A Simple Trick


Here's a simple technique that will at least double your chance of being interviewed, that almost no one follows:

Write the name of the company and position in the resume and cover letter.

We've scanned through hundreds of resumes in hiring for our own business, and I can tell you that the worst thing is to read generic descriptions of what people are looking for. It sends the message that they aren't that interested in this job.

So, instead of saying you are looking for 'a manager position', say you are looking 'to fill the Sales Manager position at BigCorp inc.'.

Resume Star lets you create as many versions of your resume as you need. We highly recommend creating a separate one for each job you are applying for.
