Should I put my blog on my resume?
92725
Set up a new blog to feature just your professional writing.  There have been news stories about people being fired because of the content of their personal blogs even if the content isn't work related.  You can bet that a potential employer will check out your blog and he/she might not like what they see.

Be succinct in your points, don't get wordy in the description.  Use action words as to exactly what you have completed in your career.  Have multiple versions of your resume tailored to positions you are interested in pursuing and capable of fulfilling.  Also, don't follow the standard on-line resume format.  This is boring and very repetitive for people to review.

Yes, mention it in your resume if it's part of your work experience.  If they ask about it during your interview, offer the documents that you have or a contact number wherein they can do a background check on you with your previous employer.

Yeah, it does sound kind of lame to keep <<blog>> as part of the site name. It's more useful when the site has various content on it, and you could name the blog section. Otherwise, I am getting kind of tired of the word 'blog' on every other site I visit. Viva BonAveo!

use one of the templates on a word processor and just make sure everything is spelled right, you don't use any weird grammar and that everything is aligned *perfectly*\n\nif you want it to really stand out there should be uniformity in how each section is setup\n\nmake sure it is only one page long, unless you have a TON of work experience you need to list and it sounds like you do not.\n\ndon't list anything that you cannot relate to the job in some way as to why it would be beneficial to them if asked in an interview.  if you are fresh out of high school, community service activities and extracurriculars are OK to list but if you've been to college leave stuff from high school to the basics, i.e. you got Salutatorian or graduted with honors.\n\nList a section of relevant skills if you don't have a lot of work history but just a lot of knowledge\n\nabove all be TRUTHFUL.  if you steal someone else's as the idiot above suggested the employers will probably just find out in their background checks so don't.  employers google prospective employees now too so make sure there isn't a picture of you on myspace hitting a bong.

It depends on your work experience.\nI am assuming you are new to the field? I would focus more on the technical skills that you have that would fit the job requirements, rather than job history. I would make your past jobs *line items* at the bottom, and enlighten the reader as to how qualified you are :)

You can right a book and sell it which would be great and it would also look very good in your RESUME and it would be beneficial to you in the future.\n\nOr you can launch a website (a company to offer HTML Services). Website creating, specific coding etc. You can also offer website maintainance etc.\n\nHope i've been of some help.

It's definitely a good idea to send out resumes as early as possible, it allows you to get a better feel of the job market and what your value is in that market.  Out of my last six jobs (ranging from $30K to $90k/year), I found four through head-hunters and internal references, two from Internet websites.  In general, the higher up you go, the less likely you'll find the job on line.  One nice feature is that most job websites will allow you to filter out certain companies from seeing your resume which will conceal your job-search activities.  \n\nWhile most larger companies have their own internal job posting websites, more and more companies are utilizing Internet websites such as Monster.com, Hotjobs.com, Dice.com, Craigslist.com given the low transaction costs.  But they get inundated with resumes and cover letters so it's difficult to make yourself stand out.  \n\nMy recommendation is that if you're serious about looking, do a more active and targeted search.  That means trying to find internal references (or use a service such as Linkedin.com) that will hopefully make your resume stand out a bit more.  My thought is that any job you take is a substantial commitment so you need to take an active role, even if the job search is just exploratory.  \n\nChecking company websites for job postings is sometimes a better solution than relying on Monster.com, etc...  It shows you did some research on the company and have an active interest.  Plopping your resume on Monster and waiting for responses is pretty passive and companies normally prefer more motivated candidates.  Also make sure to send out a cover letter with company specific reasons as to why they should hire you.  \n\nThe job market is improving for job-seekers but if you want to land the RIGHT job (as opposed to any job), you'll need to actively do some work to make yourself stand out.  Like most things in life, the results depend on how much effort you put into the task.\n-------------------------------------\nIf you have concerns that your resume doesn't represent you well enough, that's where your cover letter comes into play.    The cover letter is your opportunity to tell about the person behind the resume, why you're the right person for the job and why they should hire you.  As someone changing careers or industries, you need to actively sell that message which is why I don't recommend just passively posting your resume.  The cover letter and taking initiative to find the right company will help with that transition.  Good luck!

try monster.com where you post your resume and it is reviewed by different employers

It will look better if you give a written notice than an e-mail which is less formal.  And make sure you sign it in pen.  Writing an e-mail makes you look like you're afraid to let them know.  Give notice since this job is going to be on your resume and future employers might look at them about how you were at your job.  Go out on a high note rather than on a sour one.

Your meta tags are basically keywords to help search engines find your sites.  So if it's a blog, for example, you could put in your name, the words "blog" "diary", etc.  \n\nIt's not really necessary any more, since search engines look through the whole site now, but it is done.

It's sometimes hard to tell how the employer will see the uploaded resume.  Your best bet is to use a resume with absolutely no formatting - no underlining, italics, not even a tab.  Try your best to get things lined up or bulleted without using tabs, alignment tools (left aligned, centered, etc.), or actual bullets (I use dashes mostly).  Yes, it looks incredibly bland, but at least it won't come out weird with tabs shifting things where they're not supposed to be, or with bullets that show up as ?s.  And if your resume is written well enough, the employer will notice and perhaps call you in for an interview, at which time you can present him or her with the nicer copy.

Not really, it wouldn't look to professional.  Look at this link.  It's great for resumes.

Start with a summary (in point form) of what you have accomplished. Then followed by your detailed work experience. Each one should have a strong emphasis of what exactly you have done in that job which stood out. Lastly write about your education/studies (degree) which should mention about your major and thesis. Also include other personal developments (workshop, seminars, etc.) as well. Eventually, you can always add more later to 'spice' it up. Remember, a good resume is never perfect and finalized; you will always need to update it occasionally. G'luck.

You might try these links.\n\nGenreally keep relevent, they don't need to hear about your dishwasher experience probably.   \n\nAnd keep in short, as an empoyer, I don't want to read a novel.  I'd call you in or ask you to email me some more infomation if your one page resume looked interesting at all.\n\nMore or less a resume is an ad.  You don't see any effective WORDY ads.

These days, with the online submissions and everything, length isn't as important.  Traditionally, back in the old paper days, entry-level and those with not much experience kept their resume to one page.  Those with quite a bit of experience and therefore much to write about would go for 2 pages.\n\nNow, if you have enough *substance* to go for 2 pages, that's fine.  If it's just fluff, then stay at a page.\n\nYou want to print out 2 separate sheets because many times employers will see the first page and think that is it, so they'll miss your second page if it's on the other side, especially if the paper is thick and you can't see through it.

It depends what sort of blog you've got.  :s
