1. Before you write the first word of your resume, determine the position and industry you want to target. Then make an outline of your presentation and fill in the details of your background. Make sure you keep the focus on your target.
2. Avoid the functional resume format. Too many negatives associated with it
3. The general rule for page length is 1-page for typical entry level college students and 2 pages for everyone else
4. Don't include a picture of yourself unless you're in an industry that requires a photograph
5. Don't include personal information (marital status, children, date of birth, ethnicity) on a US style resume
6. Make sure to put your name on the first line at the top of your resume in a large font with your contact information immediately below it. Don't include cell phone or pager numbers
7. Use a summary section "intro" on your resume to give the reader a brief picture of your background
8. Use a font size between 10 and 12 for the body text of your resume. Make sure to choose a font that's compatible with applicant tracking systems that many employers use.
9. Make sure your resume is accurate and be honest with what you say
10. Once you've finalized your resume, make sure you make all the file conversions you will need in your job search
