• A resume is a summary of relevant job experience and education used to secure a new job.
• It is often the first thing a potential employer sees, so it carries a lot of importance.
• An effective resume should show the simplest information about yourself and the technical skillsets that pin-point what you are best capable of executing.
• It should be precise, to the point, and no-nonsense.
• The writer prefers resumes to stay under 3 pages, with 5 pages as the maximum.
• Spelling mistakes and grammatical errors should be avoided.
• The resume should not describe what you want to do for the organization in vague company-growth language.
• It should not list every technical term you have heard of, but focus on your core competency and the area you want to pursue.
• It should not try to present you as both a good developer and a designer at the same time, because that creates confusion about what you want to do.
