Don’t be designers 



 





 




Don’t try to be a designer while preparing a resume unless you are. Recognize your strength and keep design element to minimum. Try to keep your resume simple and eye catching, just because you know how to use Photoshop doesn’t mean you will use as an expert. Stay away from over-used templates because that will not help you to stand out and it makes you look completely generic.



 



A career summary/objective



 



A strong but short career summary in the beginning of a resume helps as a preamble.Always remember to mention your key skills and experience in it.

Some recruiters also view this summary as synonymous to the candidate's positioning. Entry-level candidates could put an objective statement instead.

For instance a trainer's resume could have a summary statement such as: Soft skills and a Public Speaking Trainer with experience in Asian/European markets.Some recruiters classify a career summary or objective statement under optional parts of a resume. I suggest that you include a summary in the beginning when you have ample space else leave it out.
