NOTE
Do not include every single bit of information about yourself as a rsum
should focus solely on the most significant data points about the individual

WHAT YOU MUST DO?

Ensure the interviewer takes time to read 100% of the information you provide, even if it
represents only 50% of the potential content you could glean from your life. Rather than 0% of the
information, because you have overloaded your rsum with every possible detail
Try putting yourself in the shoes of an admissions officer these individuals
have neither the time nor the desire to filter out the relevant information in your rsum.

In short keep it simple and include only the most relevant details keeping 3 most
important aspects in mind
Managing your space
Maintaining a consistent format
Crafting compelling bullets

MANAGING YOUR SPACE

Your rsum should be only one page long.

If you insist on a two-page rsum or longer, your reader may have difficulty scanning it and
identifying (and remembering) the important facts.
However, this does not mean that you should stuff two pages of content onto one page by shrinking
your font and broadening your margins to the edges
Think carefully about how to manage your space

WHAT You Should Avoid While Writing a Resume?

x Do Not Include Your Address
x Avoid Listing Basic Computer Skills

x Preserve White Space: You should have ample white space on your rsum so that your reader
does not feel overwhelmed by information when scanning your map.

MAINTAINING A CONSISTENT FORMAT

Crafting Compelling Bullet Points

Use bolding, bulleting, margins/spacing and font sizes consistently throughout your rsum, It helps
your reader navigate the information you have included.
