Editor's Notes

  • #7: Image Source:
  • #8: Image Source:
  • #11: Chronological Resume : This format of resume presents your career history in chronological sequence, starting with your most recent job first. Since it lists the candidates’ experience in a chronological order starting with the immediate last work experience, it is also called the reverse chronological format. Functional Resume :This format of resume highlights your main skills and strengths and does not place so much emphasis on who you worked for and what your job title was. The functional resume offers greater flexibility on how you present yourself. Skills and experience come first. Employment history and education is secondary and is listed under the details of your skills. Combination Resume: Combination resume’s combine the chronological and functional resume formats. It includes skills and experience and supports this up with a chronological listing of work history. The combination resume lets you customize the resume to the prospective job opening. Targeted Resume: This type of resume is best to use when you are aiming for one specific type of job. This one will be tailored accordingly. Greater emphasis will be given to detail that relates specifically to the job in question. Resume With Profile: A resume with profile has a base resume in a chronological or functional format and a powerful and effective profile. Visual Resume: An ‘Info graphic resume’ or a visual resume is a resume where the information is represented pictorially. Depicting information through visuals and graphics besides text is not just a growing trend among job seekers looking to represent a huge amount of data in a more memorable and tangible way . It’s an effort to show recruiters that one can think out of the box.
  • #24: Excellent at relationship building and networking. Seeking the position of a Junior Sales Executive wherein I can put my selling and negotiation skills to good use and help the company achieve great financial heights. Diploma in Sales and Marketing. Looking to build a long-term career in the field of Graphic Designing with a design agency. Good at translating paper ideas into creative designs that look compelling & are easy to attract the masses. Holds diploma in Graphic Designing from XYZ Institute. Seeking the position of a Junior Graphic Designer with a company that lets me translate business purpose into attractive designs. Motivated to use my graphic and visual art skills to optimum. Good at drawing illustrations and layouts. A talented, young, and enthusiastic individual with an MBA degree in Finance from XYZ University. Very detail-oriented and analytical. 6-month internship experience with a ABC bank. Excellent knowledge of various accounting softwares.
  • #30: The job candidate showcases the most relevant skills from their resume that they developed while working in the service industry, and highlights how they will take those skills to help make a positive impact on the prospective company’s future.
  • #33: Open the pdf file attached in the slide. Reference: https://university.linkedin.com/content/dam/university/global/en_US/site/pdf/TipSheet_BuildingaGreatProfile.pdf Manage your professional brand – You can define and develop how other members view your professional experience and qualifications. Since you will have complete control over your profile and its visibility, you can customize it to fit your needs. Your customized profile will help recruiters and other members understand your professional personality. Create opportunities for you – Since people and organizations globally use LinkedIn, a LinkedIn profile will help you get noticed. An updated profile is a great way to ensure that you can be found by right people at the right time. It’s also an excellent way to find job opportunities and connect with recruiters. Once you’ve completed your profile, you’ll be more equipped to find jobs on LinkedIn. Build your network and track your professional milestones – All of your professional achievements (new job, work anniversary, promotion, etc.) can be recorded and displayed on your LinkedIn profile. It’ll help you showcase your professional experience and achievements to other members who view your profile. An updated profile opens the door to meeting new members and making connections. Write a summary - The About section of your profile should express your mission, motivation, and skills to people who view your profile. Ideally, you should limit the text to one or two paragraphs while filling this section. You can use bullet points if you’re not comfortable with writing paragraphs. Check out some LinkedIn profile summaries that we love. Add all your relevant work and education experiences – You should keep the profile updated with all your professional experiences that align with your current career goals. You can also add media samples to provide quick access to your work portfolio. Add relevant skills – A list of relevant skills on your profile helps you showcase your abilities to other members, like your colleagues and recruiters. It helps other understand your strengths. Once you add your skills, your connections can endorse them. If someone endorses your skills, it will increase the likelihood of you being discovered for opportunities related to the skills you possess. You can also take assessments for the skills you’ve listed on your profile to showcase your proficiency. Request recommendations from your connections - A recommendation is written to recognize or commend a connection, such as a colleague, business partner, or student. There’s no limit to the number of recommendations you can request for. Once you accept a recommendation written by a connection, it becomes visible to your network by default. You can also hide recommendations that you think don’t suit your professional goals. Use your profile strength meter to gauge the strength of your profile
