HR Experts Share Tips On How To Write Better Resume

If you want to advance your career then you must definitely think of updating your resume. Sometimes candidates make the mistake of assuming they know it all. But when managers or HR go through the many resumes they discard the resumes with mistakes. Here are some tips that some HR Experts have shared, which you can follow to write a better resume.

Firstly, mention the hard and soft skills that you have. The ratio should be 2:1. Hard skills are mostly the technical skills you have in your niche while soft skills have wider perspective like leadership, communication skills etc. Many people forget to mention it on the resume. But it plays an important role.

LinkedIn is the online resume you did not think you needed. The website is the best place to build your personality according to your profession. Anyone who has a job or business is on LinkedIn, without a doubt. So please mention your LinkedIn profile in your resume. On top of that do not forget to update your LinkedIn profile as well. Add new clients, experience and certificates you achieve. 

Your resume should always look professional. In the effort of making it attractive many go over the top. They use bold colors and flashy designs and too much graphics. It can be distracting for the one looking at your resume. So, design it in such a way that it looks professionally appealing. If needed, take help of professional resume writing services so that you present the best of yourself in front of the interviewer. 

On top of it all, make sure your resume has a proper title. If you are applying for a social media manager job then let the resume title be very clear about it. Or you can always start it with your name and profession. Resumes can get you to the next step of the selection process,  so write and design it better.
