Make sure the message is clear and concise, whether you use sentences or point form.  \nHave you included specific key words from the job description into your resume?  \nAre descriptions under each role listed as tasks or responsibilities? Start each description with a strong active verb and change tasks to Accomplishment Statements.  \nHave you included a highlight of your achievements, that are either academic, memberships, volunteer, or activities you are involved with?  \nIs your resume formatted so that there is consistent spacing and clear structure? There are a few different styles of resumes, make sure you use only one style.  \nIs your resume in chronological format? If not, it may appear you are trying to hide something. Is font and font size consistent throughout your resume?  \nProofread! Have you asked someone to look over your resume? Consider someone at Tyndale or a close friend or family member with lots of resume writing experience.  \nWe Recommend:  \n1. One person whom you trust that has gifts with the English language (i.e. grammar and spelling) .  \n2. One person who is in the field that you are applying for as they know the terms and language that is helpful to use.  \nIs your resume content consistent with your online presence: social media, cover letter, LinkedIn etc.?  \nDo not include references in your resume or include the phrase,“References available upon request”as this is inferred.
