In addition to using this guide, we suggest that you get personalized feedback from professionals in your specific area of interest to further improve your resume. Keep in mind that no matter what feedback you receive on your resume, you and you alone are responsible for it; you need to own the changes you make. If you are uncomfortable with a suggestion, you probably shouldn't use it. Often, you will receive comments that seem to be in direct opposition to each other, so use what best sells you to your preferred target audience.\nFormat\nThe format of your resume should be clean, easy to scan, and not distracting to the reader. For this reason,  BYU’s Marriott School provides a suggested resume format for students. While the Marriott School does not require that you use the suggested format, the undergraduate format reinforces your professionalism and sets you apart as a business school student. Your resume should not exceed one page. You should use 10-12 pt font depending on the amount of information on your resume. Use an email address with a professional  appearance on your header and avoid emails like “hotstuff8824@hotmail.com.” In general, do not use periods at the end of bulleted items. Also, it is wise to send or upload your resume as a PDF, not as a Word document.\nEducation\nAs a student, your Education section should normally come first on your resume. The Education section is straightforward. Show your university, major, GPA, and a list of school awards and activities relating to your education. When you state your degree, say “Bachelor of, \" not “Bachelors of.” Bullet points do not need to begin with action verbs like those in the “Experience” section; rather, they should read like a list with the most eye-catching bullet points at the top. It is helpful to explain honors and awards such as what percentile of your class you are in if you get “Dean’s List Honors,” or what it means to be a member of Phi Kappa Phi, etc.\nExperience\nThe bullet points on your resume should not be a list of job responsibilities. While everybody has responsibilities, exceptional people achieve results. Whenever possible, quantify your achievements showing your personal impact (3, $545 K, 67%). Each bullet point should answer the following question: What unique value did I personally add to the organization? Each bullet point must begin with an action verb. Try to avoid general or less descriptive verbs like “helped,” “assisted,” “managed,” or “supervised.” A good way to get started is to (1) write down a list of everything that you did while at that job, (2) pick out the activities where you feel like you made the biggest contributions, and (3) quantify your results and contributions. Always present your experience in reverse chronological order with the most recent experiences at the top. Place the bullet points that would be most impressive to your potential employer at the top of your list of achievements. Consider the following examples:\nPoor: Managed accounts receivable of over $10mm & supervised 10 employees in the collections department Best: Increased collections by 10%+ each year and increased employee productivity by over 25% in collections  department\nPoor: Answered phone calls and managed appointments for senior attorney\nBest: Earned the “Most Friendly Receptionist” award in our firm and increased senior attorney billing time by  10%\nAwards, Skills, and Interests\nThe personal section on your resume is a place to display some of your unique and valuable qualities, interests, and experiences that do not relate specifically to one of your prior experiences. Whenever possible, use quantifiable results. For example, it is better to say, “Placed 3rd in Utah Valley Marathon” than “Enjoy running marathons.","cbCaivztzriC2Fip","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivztzriC2Fip","docx",21485,"English","# Purpose of this Guide\n# Format\n# Education\n# Experience\n# Awards, Skills, and Interests\n# Leadership & Service\n## Mission Experience","[{\"question\":\"What is the main purpose of this BYU Marriott resume guide?\",\"answer\":\"The guide provides the information needed to create a high-quality business resume and encourages seeking personalized professional feedback to improve it further.\"},{\"question\":\"What formatting and length recommendations does the guide give?\",\"answer\":\"The resume should be clean and easy to scan, ideally limited to one page, using a 10–12 pt font and a professional email address in the header.
