These are tips from a past recruiter. Many of folks can blether on about what to include in your resume. There are things that should not appear in you resume. This article shows you how to write your resume effectively and leave off the unnecessary information to make a best resume.
Resume Help 1 - Leave Off The Photo
Never, never, never include a photo on your resume--unless you're applying for a job in Germany, or as a fashion model. U.S. companies outside of the modeling industry will trash your resume immediately to avoid any future accusations that they might have discriminated in a hiring decision.
Resume Help 2 - Leave Off The Personal Information
Decades ago, it was more common than not to see resumes chock full of personal information like marital status, number of children if any, social security number, height and weight, health status and the like. No longer. Leave all of this information off the resume, as none of it is indicative of your value to the prospective employer, and any of it could be used--overtly, subtly or even unconsciously--to discriminate and screen you out.
Resume Help 3 - Leave Off Hobbies, Sports and Interests
Keep your interests your interests. You may be the Friday Night Dart Champion at Willie's Bar, but leave it off the resume. Are you a marathon runner? Fantastic, but the odds are that your prospective boss is not. By including that footnote on your resume, you run the risk of getting circular filed just out of spite if the reader is a couch potato who is struggling to control his weight. Take no chances -- leave it off. Likewise, don't mention your fascination with Star Trek memorabilia or the hours you spend listening for extra-terrestrials with the modified ham radio contraption in your garage.
Especially that last one.
Resume Help 4 - Leave Off Your Salary, Or Salary Expectations
Listing your current salary (or salary expectations) on your resume is 1) Unprofessional, and 2) Asking for trouble. It's unprofessional because it simply isn't done. In the same manner, a house guest doesn't mention his culinary expectations to the host before dinner. It's asking for trouble because whatever dollar figure you mention will be viewed as either too low or too high, and dredge up questions that have nothing to do with your qualifications for the position. Again, you don't want anything in the resume that will make it easy for the reviewer to screen you out.
Resume Help 5 - Leave Off References, Or Even The Mention Of References
Finally, don't include references. In fact, no need to even reference that you have references. If you have a pulse and live in some semblance of a society, it's inferred that you can produce references if asked. Wait until you're asked.
