RULES TO WRITE THE RESUME AND THE COVER LETTER
A RESUME is a short description of your history in work and at school. Resumes have a fairly standard
format and should be neatly typed on good quality paper.
At the very top, give your name, address, and telephone number. Your age and marital status may be in-
cluded if necessary.
The next item in the resume is a brief paragraph that may be labeled "Objectives". In the paragraph, you
indicate what job you are looking for and your major qualifications for such a job.
Following this is the record of your work experience. This record is the main part of the resume. Your work
experience is listed with your most recent job first. The job before that is listed next, and so on with your first job
listed last.
After the record of your work experience, list your schooling, any degrees, relevant courses, hobbies, hon-
ors, and affiliations. For example, physical fitness is an asset: if you jog, swim, play tennis, golf, or engage in
any other fitness activity, it may be worth noting. If you belong to professional societies, you should definitely
list them. Do list any awards or honors you have received whether or not they are job-related. Such honors indi-
cate that you are esteemed by others.
Resumes are generally kept to one page.
