EMPLOYERS
REQUIRE RESUMES
Before
an employer interviews you, he needs to see that you are not
wasting his time. This is where your resume is such an essential
marketing tool. It tells an employer that you have seriously
thought about the job opening, have prepared for it, and have
taken the time to present yourself articulately. In short,
a resume tells the employer that you have a positive work
attitude and that you are a responsible team player.
A RESUME FURTHERS YOUR VOCATION
We
all know that we have to work to make our dreams come true.
This is also true of dream jobs. You need a resume not because
most employers insist on seeing one. It is a means to an end.
If there is a job that you earnestly want, then send in a
resume that will highlight your professional skills. .
It is
only through your resume that you can convince employers that
they will benefit from your presence in their company - why
your skills are worth the company's money, why you are better
than the other applicants, and why you are the best person
to untangle and resolve tough issues that may arise in the
actual job situation.
WHAT
EMPLOYERS WANT TO SEE IN A RESUME
It's
important that your resume be as strong and positive as possible.
A poorly organized and haphazardly written resume tells employers
that you are not serious about yourself. And if you are not
serious about yourself, you are probably not serious about
the job you are eyeing, either.
With your
resume before them, employers can visualize how you will operate
within the framework of their corporation, and how your skills
and abilities will be utilized in the future development of
the company. Make yourself fit the job.
QUESTIONS
EMPLOYERS ASK
The
questions that are going through the minds of employers are:
Can you solve problems?
What are the benefits of hiring you over someone else?
How will you fit into the organization of the company?
Will you have a strong commitment to your job?
How will you increase the company's benefits and profits?
