Is your resume just stuck in the mundane document format with lines and paragraphs about you?
I know you want to add everything and anything that you have achieved and experienced into your portfolio. But is it necessary to do it in a conventional way (sigh, which is quite boring, I must say)?
So, why not give it a digital twist?
A professional-looking, yet an attractive resume can set you apart from the rest of the other resumes. Since the world hasn’t entirely caught up with the digital age, we do not suggest to completely get rid of your documented CV. Instead of having one of the two, why not have both?
Keep your documents safe in a folder and experiment digitally to craft up a perfect online resume. You can create, manage, edit, and share your online resume in just minutes!
Hard to believe? Well, you can, with Contentder. Go visit their site if you want to learn more on what it does.
Now, it’s time to conjure up your online resume. Here are 7 steps to get started in your professional career.
1. Explore Templates
The first thing you need to start with while building an online resume is to explore templates. Because selecting the right template will give you a strong backbone. Also, your template will give a quick view of your persona and this will add points to your first impression. Don’t hurry and select a random one, rather, take your time and select the perfect template that matches your personality. Then move onto the next step.
2. Mention Your Contact Information
Don’t make the hiring team to go on a journey to get to you. Cut the chase and let them know how they can reach you by displaying a phone number and an email address in your CV. And, make sure to put this contact information where it is visible. Your job is to make the search easier for the potential employers. Maybe you’ll get the call a day sooner 😉.
3. Include Your Personal Statement
Wondering what to include next?
A personal touch to your resume.
The personal statement section will instantly capture your audience’s attention and leave them wanting to know you more. Make sure the statement you provide highlights your true points as well as reflects what your recruiters are looking for in a candidate.
4. Present Your Educational Background
