CRAFTING AN EFFECTIVE RESUME:

CREATIVE PROJECT FOR KNJ LABEL

Crafting an Impressive Resume: Your


Ultimate Guide

Let's Get Started


Alright, let's dive into the world of resumes! Think of your resume as your professional story in a nutshell.
It's like a sneak peek into your education, work history, skills, and unique traits. Crafting it well helps hiring
managers quickly see how awesome you are for a job. Plus, it's usually the first thing recruiters check to
decide if they want to chat with you in an interview.

Recruiters are on the lookout for three main things in your resume: "What did you do? Why did you do it?
And what happened as a result?"

The Must-Have Sections


How to Get in Touch:
Your contact info is like the VIP section of your resume. Stick it right at the top, and make it easy for
recruiters to reach out. You'll need:

Your full name (the one you use online)


Phone number
Professional email (no "[email protected]," please!)
LinkedIn or personal website link
Social media profiles that match the job (like GitHub or Behance)
Where you live

Pro tips:

Link your LinkedIn: It's a favorite among professionals and gives a peek into your professional side.
Got GitHub? Show it off! It's a big deal for developers.
Have a portfolio? Share it, like your personal website link (e.g., https://jonny.me/).

What You're All About (You Can Skip This)

This is like the trailer of your resume movie. A summary is a short pitch of why you're a great fit, while an
objective tells what kind of job you're after.

Example: " I'm all about solving problems with tech. I'm on the hunt for an exciting role in a cool company
where I can use and improve my techie and problem-solving skills to create software that impacts loads of
people."

Showcasing Your Experience

This is where your job history comes in. If you've worked before, this is the star section. Here's the plan:

Say your job title, company, and how long you worked there.
Then, share 2 to 4 things you rocked at the job. Tell what you did, what you learned, and what you
achieved.

Action time:
Action Verb | What You Did | What Happened Example: "I led making media kits, boosting sales by 8% for
all company projects."

School Days (Can't Skip This)

Got any degrees? Cool, let's talk about them:

Say what you studied.


Tell where you studied.
Mention when you finished.
Share how well you did.
Your Skills on Display (Can't Skip This Either)

Show off what you're good at. Here are some examples:

Tech skills: Coding languages, Algorithms, Designing, Troubleshooting, Databases, Project management,
Web stuff (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, etc.).

People skills: Teamwork, Leadership, Talking well, Being organized, Working with others, Problem-solving.

Projects That Shine (Also Can't Skip)

Tell me about your projects and why they're cool. Use around 3 to 5 points for each project.

Got More Space? Here's More:


Awards and Wins (If You're Feeling Proud)

Did you rock a coding contest or something? Brag a bit!

Lending a Hand (If You're a Volunteer)

Did you help out an NGO or do some community stuff? Let it be known.

Languages You Speak (Not Code, Human Languages)

Let 'em know what languages you're comfortable in.

Hobbies (Your Fun Side)

Talk about things you love doing outside of work, like swimming or traveling.

Tips to Rock Your Resume

The Do's

Keep it to one page. If it's tiny, add more. If it's huge, trim it down.
Balance things out. If it's all projects, mix in some skills or experience.
It's okay if a project isn't done yet. Show it off!
Put your LinkedIn link there. It's your pro hangout.
List things from newest to oldest. It's like a timeline of you.
Fonts: Think Ubuntu, Roboto, Overpass. Stay away from Comic Sans. Font size: 11-12 point for
words, 14-16 points for titles.
Leave space at the edges (0.5 to 1 inch is good).
Read it over before hitting send.
Make it breezy – white space is good. Not a heavy novel.
Save and share as a PDF, named 'CV-firstname_lastname.pdf.'
Highlight your wins and the awesome stuff you did.
Always start with the latest stuff in each section.

The Don'ts

Don't crowd your resume. Keep it neat.


Not every project, just the top ones (like 4-5 max).
Keep the "What I'm All About" bit short. No long speeches.
Pro emails only – no [email protected], please!
Skip the fancy abbreviations (ISO? Nah).

Alright, now you're ready to craft a resume that'll make waves! Go show 'em what you're made of.
