Resume Rubric


I got this from Grant MacEwan University back in 2007.  These are some resume tips that I would like to share.
 
Resume Rubric

Have you…

o       …targeted your resume to the job ad?

o       …put the most relevant information in the visual centre of the resume?

o       …expressed your experience within the language of your potential employer/industry?

o       …organized your resume so that it is easy for the employer to see you have the skills and experience for the job?

o       …included your current and correct contact information?  (And does your e-mail address sound professional?)

o       …carefully proofread and edited your resume?  Do not rely on spell check.

o       …created a visually appealing and professional looking resume?

o       …included relevant information and omitted or briefly summarized dated or unrelated experience?

o       …written a targeted cover letter?

o       …picked appropriate references? Does the employer want you to include them with your resume or at the interview?

o       …researched the company/employer?
