Resumes for Techies - Tips, Ticks and Samples
Friday November 21, 2008
We all need occasional resume tips - it's always handy to keep your resume up to date! One of the most common questions I get from job seekers is - how do I write a resume? What do I put on there, and what should I leave off? This can be especially difficult for techies, where the temptation is to list every single project you have ever worked on. Remember, the goal of your resume is to get an interview, so there should be just enough information on there to make a recruiter or hiring manager want to pick up the phone and learn more about you.

Remember when employers are looking at resumes, especially for tech jobs, they are looking for specific skills and applications. Job search engines like dice.com work just like google when searching. They are looking for keywords so make sure your skills contain those keywords exactly.
