What to know
- Keep the document clear, readable and tailored to the role.
- Lead with relevant skills and recent experience rather than a long personal biography.
- Use measurable examples where possible: results, responsibilities, tools and achievements.
- Check spelling, dates and contact details carefully.
- Follow the application instructions for each employer instead of sending the same resume everywhere.
- Use a short cover letter when the role asks for one.
