1 Use a clear and simple format

The first thing you need to do is to choose a format that is easy to read and scan. Avoid fancy fonts, colors, graphics, or tables that might distract from your content. Use consistent headings, margins, spacing, and alignment to create a professional and neat look. Use bullet points to highlight your main points and avoid long paragraphs or sentences. Make sure your resume is no longer than two pages, and preferably one page if you have less than 10 years of experience.

Use a single column format. This will allow you to create a clean, easy to read document with a consistent flow of information. This will also ensure you do not stuff unnecessary Information on the page. Leave a 10-point spacing between headings and sections.

2 Tailor your resume to the job

One of the most important ways to make your resume stand out is to customize it to the specific job you are applying for. Don't use a generic resume that lists all your skills and experiences, but rather focus on the ones that are most relevant and valuable to the employer. Use keywords and phrases from the job description to match your resume to the employer's needs and expectations. Highlight your accomplishments and results that demonstrate your impact and value. Show how you can solve the employer's problems or challenges with your skills and abilities.

First, make sure to research the job so you understand the specific requirements and skills the job listing mentions. Only then will you have the information you need to tailor your resume to align with these qualifications. With limited space, you’ll have to prioritize the most relevant information. Place that at the beginning of each section. This ensures that the hiring manager sees what they're looking for quickly. Keep things concise by using short, clear sentences and bullet points to present information. Avoid unnecessary words or phrases.

3 Use a summary or objective statement

A summary or objective statement is a short introduction that summarizes your main qualifications and goals for the job. It can help you grab the attention of the reader and show them why you are a good fit for the position. A summary statement is more suitable for experienced professionals who have a clear career focus and can showcase their key skills and achievements. An objective statement is more suitable for entry-level or career change candidates who need to explain their purpose and motivation for applying. Whichever you choose, make sure it is concise, specific, and targeted to the job.

4 Quantify your achievements

One of the best ways to make your resume stand out is to use numbers and metrics to quantify your achievements. Numbers can help you show the scope, scale, and impact of your work and make your resume more credible and convincing. For example, instead of saying "increased sales", say "increased sales by 25% in six months". Instead of saying "managed a team", say "managed a team of 10 people and delivered projects on time and within budget". Use percentages, amounts, time frames, rankings, or other measures to demonstrate your value and results.

Numbers and results are a great way to stand out but make sure you don't overuse them. Every sentence does not have to include a quantifiable achievement. Impact and value can also be shown with qualitative achievements. Use numbers once in every three sentences.

5 Proofread and edit your resume

Finally, don't forget to proofread and edit your resume before sending it. You don't want to ruin your chances of getting an interview because of spelling, grammar, punctuation, or formatting errors. Use a spell checker and a grammar checker to catch any mistakes, but also read your resume aloud and ask someone else to review it. Make sure your resume is clear, concise, and consistent. Eliminate any unnecessary or redundant words, phrases, or information. Check that your resume is aligned with the job requirements and the employer's preferences.

This is a space to share examples, stories, or insights that don’t fit into any of the previous sections. What else would you like to add?

Stop filling your resume with useless information. Stop using soft skills. Stop using filler words like experienced, proficient, expert. Leverage your hard skills. Your CV is not your biography, it's your landing page.
