Crafting an Impressive Resume

How to Create a Resume walks you through the process of creating and updating your resume. It’s crucial to ensure that your resume makes the right impression. In fact, it’s not uncommon for an employer to review a resume for only five to six seconds before deciding whether to "keep" or "cut" an application. To stand out from the dozens or even hundreds of other applications for a single job opening, your resume must capture attention quickly and effectively.
