How to write a great Resume for the Canadian Job Market
Writing A Great Resume That Maximizes Your Job Search SuccessThe first step in writing your resume is to conduct a thorough personal skills assessment to identify the core competences that you have developed through your working experiences and academic studies. The next step in effective resume writing is to describe those skills using keywords that the employers will understand so no jargon and are relevant to the job you are targeting. ÷
To ensure maximum job search success, you must first develop an understanding of how to identify the skills an employer wants. To do that, you must first review the job description carefully. Most job descriptions are written with the most important qualifications and job responsibilities listed from most to least important. So you must review the posted job descriptions starting with the skills listed at the top to identify the skills that are most important to an employer and incorporate the ones you have into your resume and cover letter.÷ ÷
