The resume is the business card of the applicant, and it depends on how correctly it is drawn up and executed, whether your meeting with the HR manager and the interview will take place. It is important that not only basic, but also additional information about you attracts the attention of a personnel worker.
General rules for drawing up a resume
The resume should be written in a standard Word text editor format, be legible and free from grammatical errors. Its structure must necessarily include an indication of the vacancy for which you are applying, your full surname, first name and patronymic, as well as contact information, when indicating which it is advisable not to be limited only to an e-mail address.
In the main body of your resume, you will need to write about your education and work experience. This is, of course, important information, but in addition to it, you will also need to provide the potential employer with additional information about yourself, which will help him to form a more complete impression of you. Do not think that this part of the resume is not as important as the main one. Often, it is by her that the employer judges how much you meet the corporate requirements that exist in this company, and also gets an idea of what kind of person you are, and even what psychotype you belong to.
What can be included in additional information about yourself
As a supplement, you can list those skills that allow you to evaluate you as the right employee: knowledge of standard office programs and specialized software, having a driver's qualifications and licenses, degree of proficiency in foreign languages and membership in professional organizations and associations. This is an opportunity to give a recommendation to oneself as a person who fully owns all possible tools that can facilitate the process of mastering at a new place of work and reduce the training period to a minimum.
In the additional information, you can also talk about your hobbies and interests. In some cases, it is important that you also engage in some kind of social activity. This is especially paid attention to in companies working together or with the attraction of foreign capital. The one thing that should not be mentioned in this section is your political and religious beliefs. But it is imperative to talk about how you spend your leisure time, especially when it is associated with extreme sports or outdoor activities.
In additional information, you can also provide links to your portfolio or page on the Internet, or inform that, if necessary, you can send the employer all the necessary certificates that can confirm your professional qualifications.
