Tip on resume writing on-line
1. Pay attention to style
Put in some effort to make sure the overall layout or presentation of your resume has a good visual appeal
2. List your professional strengths
Focus on your strength, avoid giving general statements but use keywords or buzzwords that companies and recruiters need to see, for example, " project management", " marketing management", and "training and development".
3. Highlight your achievements
Be specific and clear about what you have accomplished under different job positions or titles. Apart from stating your job duties and responsibilities, take a step further to highlight the results of what you have accomplished and achieved for the organisation.
