Dear ,

This is the first in a series of articles highlighting the keys to writing a sparkling resume. Each article presents one or more keys to creating a professional and effective resume that generates interviews.

Does it sparkle or sleep in a pile of other resumes?
Does your resume accurately communicate the values you've delivered and the talents you possess?
Resumes are marketing documents with the sole purpose of generating interest in you that results in job interviews.

Accomplishments and Skills
Professional resumes highlight accomplishments you've achieved and the skills you possess. Highlight several key accomplishments for each position. Each position on your resume should include the company, a descriptive title of your responsibilities, and dates worked (starting and ending dates). Below the position title, summarize your responsibilities in the first several sentences. Then, list several specific accomplishments you achieved.

Action Words
Resume sentences with the most impact begin with action verbs, words that communicate action and normally end in “ed”. Even though such words are the past tense of verbs, research shows that using such language conveys action. Here are a few examples of action words:

- achieved, acquired, adapted, addressed, administered, analyzed, assisted, audited
- calculated, centralized, changed, collaborated, conducted, constructed
- demonstrated, designed, developed, devised, discovered

Objectives
Your professional objective should be short and to the point.  Describe what type of positions and industries interest you.  If you do not include an objective, resume readers will assume you are seeking a position similar to your most recent position.  Objectives are also important when you are seeking to change careers or industries.
