Hit the hot buttons with your resume. It is important to view the hiring process from the employer's standpoint. They are looking at a dozen resumes, maybe even a hundred resumes, and often they have to narrow their search for appropriate candidates from this single document. Often times we assume the prospective employer will make the connection from our past employers and duties with their needs for their open position. Do not count on it. Make every sentence support your ability to perform duties, execute projects, and demonstrate successful outcomes. You will have to be specific and resist simply stating a job title and responsibilities. Think hard about what work you have done in the past and highlight accomplishments and get specific about what you actually did. It may seem obvious to you but you might just connect with some key duties and skills that the employer is looking for. Cite details of sales goals met, department cost savings realized, award winning designs, and any other special skills you utilized that produced a desirable result. Be sure to mention any key relationships you developed between customers and within the company departments or team of people you work with.
