Writing a quality resume
Writing a high quality resume is an important step towards finding a great job. This might mean extra pay, more flexibility, more interesting work or a more fun working environment.
Consider the time spent writing a quality resume to be an investment in your future. Spending an extra few hours writing your CV can save you the time that you would have to spend working to make up for a lower pay rate. And, if you’re happier in your new job, it will be longer before you have to go through this process again.
The purpose of your resume is to describe your work history, training and achievements to a prospective employer. It should be submitted, along with a cover letter, when you apply for a job.
The easiest way to write a new resume is to use Staffme’s resume builder. Our resume builder guides you through the process of writing a resume. There is a field for every piece of information that you need to put into your resume and a description alongside every field, to give you advice on how to fill it.
Your resume is automatically formatted and made available on Staffme for employers to view so that they can find and contact you if they have work that suits your skills. Of course, it’s still your resume and you’re welcome to copy it into your own document and use it to apply for jobs outside of Staffme.
Remember, you’ll spend around 2000 hours per year at your job. It’s worth spending an extra hour or two making sure it’s the right job. Writing a good resume makes you more money, gives you more time and gets you more out of your work life.
Staffme offers a professional CV writing service for $129. If you’d like to be confident of the quality of your resume, have a recruiter, who sees hundreds of them every week, write it for you.
