Resume Resources

What is a Resume?
A resume is a brief summary of personal and
professional experiences, skills, and
education history. Its main purpose is to show
off your best self to potential employers.

When applying for a job, you’re (in most

cases) going to be asked for a resume
accompanied by a cover letter.

If you manage to create a “good” resume,

you’re going to 2x your chances of getting
hired. Want to learn how? Check out our
complete guide on how to make a resume.

How to Write a Resume

for Your First Job?
The process of writing a resume might seem
super scary to you. After all, most resume
examples you see on the web are 80% about
work experience. So, what the heck can you
include in your resume if you have none?

Well, here’s some good news. If you’re

applying for an entry-level job or an
internship, no one expects you to have ANY
work experience.

Instead, you should focus on what you DO

have: education, projects, volunteering
experience, hobbies & interests.

For a complete guide on how to make a

resume with no work experience stand out,
check out our article.

How to Format a
Resume?
There are 3 typical resume formats:

Reverse-Chronological Resume
Functional Resume
Combination Resume

In 99% of the cases, you’ll want to go with

the Reverse Chronological resume format.
That’s the format most resumes you’ve seen
follow - its main focus is your work
experience, written down in reverse-
chronological order.

Unless you’re looking to create a career

change resume, we’d recommend sticking
with this format.

If you want to learn more about resume

formats, check out our comparison guide.

How Long Should a

Resume Be?
Ah, the most popular resume question in the
world: “how long should your resume be?”

Short answer: one page. If you have a lot of

work experience (10 years +), sometimes it
makes sense to make it 2 pages MAX if
everything you mention is super relevant for
the position you’re applying for.

Long answer: check out our guide on how

long should a resume be.

P.S. all of our templates are one-page resume

templates, so you shouldn’t have a lot of
trouble sticking to the one-page limit!

How to Write a Resume

Summary?
Your resume summary is a “hook” that goes
on top of your resume. Think of it as an
introduction to the rest of your resume. It
should, in 2-4 sentences, explain what your
background is, and why it’s relevant for the
position you’re applying for.

Want your resume summary to stand out?

Use this proven formula:

“Professional [job title] with X+ years of work

experience in [job responsibility]. In the past
Y years, I have [your top 1-2 achivements].
Seeking a position of [job title] at [company
name]”

To learn more about how to create a resume

summary that excels, check out our guide.

On the other hand, if you’re a student or just

don’t have a lot of work experience, read our
article on how to create a resume objective
instead.

How to List Work

Experience on a Resume
Work experience on a resume is one of those
things that’s easy to learn, hard to master.

Each work experience entry should contain

the following:

Position title
Company name/description/location
Achievements or responsibilities
Dates employed

Now, if you want to create a work

experience section that stands out, you
want to focus on quantifiable achievements.
What this means is, instead of creating an
entry like:

“Carried out sales operations”

You list an achievement:

“Hit and exceeded monthly sales KPIs for 5

months in a row.”

This shows the employer that you’re not just

a random candidate, you’re an A-player! To
learn more about how to list achievements in
your work experience (and land the job),
check out our article.

How to List Skills on a

Resume?
Simply create a ”skills” section on your
Novorésumé resume template, and list your
top skills. We usually recommend going for a
mix of hard and soft skills.

resume? Check out these 101 essential skills
for any resume.

How to Make a Cover

Letter For a Resume?
Every job application asks for a cover letter
(in addition to your resume). Here are some
of our tips on how to do this right:
