Developing your resume

5 tips for success

• no need to include personal details that are not relevant e.g. age, marital status, religion, children etc.
• 3 pages maximum with plenty of white space
• use dot points rather than paragraphs of text
• tailor your resume – it is a marketing document not the story of your life - include the most relevant information first
• include a skills section and highlight the transferable skills you have developed from employment, volunteer work, university, extracurricular activities etc.
