ANYONE KNOW ANY GOOD RESUME SOFTWARE???

[KAYNE]

I NEED SOME GOOD RESUME WRITING SOFTWARE. IF ANYONE HAS USED ANY OR KNOW WHATS GOOD, LET ME KNOW PLEASE.

I REALIZE I AM GOING TO HAVE TO BUY IT BUT IF ANY IS AVAILABLE ONLINE, THAT WOULD BE EVEN BETTER.

BTW...I'M LOOKING FOR SOMETHING THAT GIVES ME A CHOICE OF WHAT TYPE OF RESUME I'M CONSTRUCTING I.E...FINANCE, ACCOUTING, EXECUTIVE, ETC. ETC.

Agree with Warick, Microsoft Word.

There are a few templates if you have a copy of the CD, but best to format individually for the style you're going for.

You don't usually do differently for Finance, Accounting, Exec., etc.

Either go chronological (reverse) with or w/o an objective or summary, or skills/experience based (usually for those with significant experience). If you don't have very much experience you can break down the chron. one into projects or engagements you've been on.

 

[Warik]

MS Word man. Why do you need a special program? Focus more on the content rather than the appearance and you'll probably build a better resume. Just as long as its easy to read you should be in good shape.

That's what I used and it worked very well.

Presuming you have Microsoft Word, just go the template section for Office on microsoft.com.

You can templates that make it quite easy and professional looking. Just tweak the templates to your liking.

I JUST PICKED UP SOME SOFTWARE. IT LOOKS GOOD AND HAS LOTS OF FORMATS TO CHOOSE FROM. WHOMEVER SAID THAT I COULDNT CHOOSE A FINANCE TYPE OF RESUME IS WRONG. IT HAS OVER 50 FORMATS FOR DIFFERENT INDUSTRIES AND WHATNOT. PRETTY CHEAP TO. ONLY 30$.

THERE IS NO WAY WORD CAN DO SOME OF THIS STUFF. THIS LOOKS GOOD.

YOU SPARKY!!! ME NO SPARKY!!! GET IT RIGHT SPARKY!!!

I GRADUATE NEXT SEMESTER. I HAVENT BEEN IN COLLEGE FOR 7 YEARS. I HAVE BEEN IN FOR 6 YEARS. HOWEVER, I WAS A PRE PHYSICAL THERAPY MAJOR FOR THE FIRST 2 1/2 YEARS. THEN I CHANGED OVER TO FINANCE. SO AS YOU MAY HAVE GUESSED, BASICALLY NONE OF MY HOURS COUNTED TOWARDS FINANCE EXCEPT MY FIRST YEAR (WHICH WASNT MUCH, I PLAYED AROUND). I ALSO SAT OUT 2 SEMESTERS DUE TO PERSONAL ISSUES. I ALSO WORKED TWO JOBS AND ATTENDED SCHOOL FULL TIME MY FIRST 3 YEARS.

AND NO, I'M NOT FINISHING AT ALL. IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS, I HAVE BEEN GIVING SERIOUS THOUGHT TO GOING OUT OF STATE TO GRAD SCHOOL FOR MY MBA. THATS ANOTHER YEAR AND A HALF POSSIBLY TWO. HOWEVER, I WILL BE A SMART MOTHER FUCKER (ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT I AM NOW) WHEN I FINISH. DONT YOU THINK SPARKY!!!

damn keepin them cap locks on has me crying, cause you keep yelling!
I don't listen to yellowers.

 

[DigitalKyle]

Will you be typing in all caps on your Resume too?

Kayne,

It really makes no difference what lay out you use for a resume, but rather it is the content and verbage that makes a difference. The reason here being is that 99% of all major corporations that receive resumes use an automated scanning program to compare your resume to certain buzz words in the job title, it is a strong match, then it gets copied in a pre defined format into their system and kicked over to the HR rep. This is why when you send in a resume and get an automated response first, then the rep calls you, the first thing they ask is if you can send them a copy of your resume.

If you send me a copy of your resume - no matter what format you use - I will gladly look it over and rework it into something stronger and attention grabbing.

Keep in mind that the first person to see your resume is usually a HR rep, who really has no clue to the aspect or job duties that go along with other departments. They are usually just given a minimum comparision sheet to judge resume's by. You want your resume to get past them without confusing them to the hiring manager where the same resume will dazzle him.

Isn't this true 99.99999999% of the time for anyone in HR?
