Hello dear friends! Alexander Berezhnov is in touch.

As you already understood from the title, today we will talk about getting a job, namely well-written resume. There is a lot of literature on the Internet on this subject, but I did not find a clear and understandable instruction. Therefore, I offer my instructions, compiled according to an accessible and simple algorithm.

Be sure to read the article to the end - in the final you are waiting for download!

1. What is a resume and what is it for?

If you still do not quite understand what a resume is, I propose to give it a definition:

Summary- this is brief self-presentation in writing of your professional skills, achievements and personal qualities that you plan to successfully implement in your future job in order to receive compensation for them (for example, in the form of money or other type of compensation)

I myself in the past had to write a resume when applying for a job. Indeed, without this, no employer will even know about you and your professional skills.

I remember when I sat down to write my resume for the first time, it took me a lot of time to competently compose it and arrange it according to all standards. And since I like to understand everything thoroughly, I also studied the issue of its correct spelling very deeply. For this, I spoke with professional specialists on personnel and studied a large number of articles on the topic.

Now I know how to write a resume correctly and I will gladly share it with you.

I share with you samples of my resumes, which I wrote personally for myself:

(you can download them for free)

Thanks to my ability to write professional resumes I have never had difficulty getting a job. So my knowledge is reinforced practical experience and are not dry academic theory.

So what's the secret to writing good resume? Read about it below.

2. How to write a resume - 10 easy steps

Before moving on to the steps, I want you to remember 3 main rules for successful resume writing:

Rule number 1. Write the truth, but not the whole

Focus on your strengths and don't talk too much about your weaknesses. You will be asked about them at the interview, be prepared for this.

Rule number 2. Stick to a clear structure

The summary is written on 1-2 sheets, no more. Therefore, try to briefly and succinctly state in it all the necessary information, even if there is a lot of it.

Take care of the accurate formatting of the resume text, its structured presentation. Since no one is pleased to read abracadabra.

Rule number 3. Be optimistic and cheerful

Positive people attract success. In your case, a new job.

So, let's move on to the structure of the resume.

Step 1. Resume Title

Here you must write the word "Summary" itself and indicate to whom it is drawn up.

All this is written in one line.

For example: CV Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich

Then your potential employer will immediately understand who owns the resume. For example, you have previously called a company you are interested in in order to find out if they still have this vacancy open. You were given a positive response and offered to send a resume.

At the end of the first step, your resume will look like this:

Step 2. Purpose of the resume

It must be remembered that your resume must have a purpose. Correctly formulate it as follows (phrase):

The purpose of the resume is to apply for the position of an accountant

Since at this moment you are called that - an applicant, that is, a person, job seeker, potentially claiming it.

At the end of the second step, your resume will look like this:

Step 3. Applicant and his data

At this point, you must write the following:

  • date of birth;
  • address;
  • contact number;
  • e-mail;
  • marital status.

At the end of the third step, your resume should look like this:

Step 4. Education

If you have several formations, then write them in order.

For example:

Moscow State University, 2005-2010,

Speciality: accountant (bachelor)

Moscow State University, 2007-2013,

Speciality: translator in the field of professional communication (bachelor)

At this stage, your resume should look like this:

Step 5. Experience

Please note that the “work experience” column is written in the resume starting from the most recent place of your work, if it is not the only one, and starting from the period spent in this position.

For example:

Job title: chief accountant's assistant;

Job title: accountant

So we have already written half of the resume, it should look like this:

Step 6. Job Responsibilities

This item in the resume is not always required if the vacancy you are applying for is quite common, and you held a similar position at a previous job.

Sometimes this item can be included in the previous one by writing your own official duties immediately after the post.

Step 7. Achievements in previous jobs

The item "Achievements" is one of the most important in the resume! It is much more important than education and even work experience.

Your potential employer wants to know what exactly he will pay you wages for. Therefore, it is very important to mention when writing a resume about all significant achievements in previous jobs. At the same time, please note that it is correct to write in words that are the so-called "markers" for employees personnel services reviewing your resume.

For example, it is correct to write:

  • increased sales volumes by 30 percent in 6 months;
  • developed and implemented new technology into production;
  • shortened equipment maintenance costs by 40%.

Wrong to write:

  • worked to increase sales;
  • took part in a project to create a new technology;
  • reduced equipment costs.

As you can see, it is also important to write specific numbers, as they very clearly reflect the essence of your achievements.

Now your resume looks like this:

Step 8. Additional Information

Here you need to describe your strengths, professional knowledge and skills that will directly help you to better and better perform the tasks assigned to you at a new job.

Usually they write the following:

  1. Knowledge of computers and specialized software. This is true for office workers and employees whose direct work is connected with a PC. For example, for designers, accountants, programmers, office managers.
  2. Proficiency in foreign languages. If your future job involves reading, translating or communicating in a foreign language and you speak it to a certain extent, be sure to write about it. For example: English spoken.
  3. Having a car and driving skills. If your work involves business trips and you often have to drive a car, for example, while working sales representative, then you should indicate the presence of your car, as well as the category of driver's license and experience.

Thus, in additional information along with computer proficiency and a foreign language, write: there is a personal car, category B, 5 years of experience.

Step 9. Personal qualities

There is no need to describe too many qualities here, especially if they do not apply to your future work. You can be a kind and sympathetic person who loves children and respects your friends, but a potential employer will not be interested in reading about your “cordiality” and rich inner world.

For example, if you are applying for the position of an accountant, then it would be good to write here: composure, attentiveness, punctuality, efficiency, mathematical mindset, ability to analyze.

If you are applying for more creative profession, let's say a designer or creator, then it should be indicated here: developed creative imagination, sense of style, non-standard view of the problem, healthy perfectionism.

It will be great if you mention your full name at the end of your resume. and positions of your former managers, as well as indicate their contact numbers so that your potential employer or his representative can verify your professionalism by receiving feedback about you from your former direct supervisors.

Even if your potential employer does not call your former supervisors, the mere fact of having contacts for recommendations will significantly increase his confidence in you.

At the very end of the resume, you must indicate when you are ready to start working, here you can also indicate the desired level of remuneration.

The final look of your resume:

Congratulations! Your resume is 100% ready!

To find the job of your dreams, you need to post your resumes on Internet portals. A very convenient and simple site for job search is JOB.RU. Here you can very quickly and today receive the first call from the employer.

I am glad to welcome you, dear readers, on the pages of my blog. Today we continue to solve problems related to employment and talk about how to send your resume to an employer by e-mail. For some, this may seem like a completely banal operation that does not deserve special attention, but do not underestimate this point, because even here you can miss and lose your chances to get a dream job.

From this article you will learn:

At present, the Internet has firmly entered our lives, more and more of our compatriots, from preschool children to pensioners, are happy to master the computer, playing online games, using online stores, ordering meals and watching movies. Therefore, it is quite logical that the first, in absentia, acquaintance of the employer with the candidacy of a potential employee now also increasingly takes place via the Internet - via e-mail.

This is a great way to save precious time, because now everyone who wants to get a job in the company does not need to be interviewed - just select a few of the most suitable resumes. Despite the fact that such a practice is very convenient, not everyone can appreciate its positive aspects, because someone is used to having people at their disposal precisely in person, but it’s not at all possible for the employer to be “hooked” by this.

Sending a resume letter to an employer e-mail, it is important to somehow attract his attention. But how can this be done if the message can simply be lost among spam and letters from other applicants? There are certain tricks that will increase the likelihood that the resume will get to its addressee and be read by them, and we will talk about this below. In fact, all this is not at all difficult, the main thing is to follow simple rules and do not try to hope for a lucky coincidence. In such an important issue as job search, with this, alas, not everyone is lucky.

Why send a resume by email?

As mentioned above, there is a certain business etiquette in the field of employment today. It means that before you appear for an interview in person, a potential employer will receive your resume by e-mail and decide if you are a good fit for him, based on the information received from this document. To come to the office and demand that they immediately talk to you about employment is at least incorrect, because the manager who is responsible for this issue may simply not have time for this.

Of course, there are exceptions to any rule, and in some cases this works - bosses may like your confidence and you will get a job. However, I repeat, this is just an exception to the rule, because, with a greater degree of probability, they will think of you that you are not a very well-mannered person, and simply do not want to do business with you. So with business etiquette we figured it out.

The second point is that the resume should be sent by e-mail - it can be the mail of the head of the organization, the head of the personnel department, the manager responsible for recruiting, or a corporate mailbox.

In any case, the subject of the letter should indicate that this is a response to a specific vacancy. Is it possible to give the document to the secretary or send it by regular mail? It is possible, but not the fact that it will not get lost among other business papers and correspondence.

By the way, sometimes it is great to simplify the task on a site specially designed for this, sending only a link to employers. This is not always a good decision, as someone may take your letter for a viral mailing list and refuse to follow the link. It is better to duplicate the resume with a text document, formatting it according to the model.

What should be in the letter and what should not be there?

Even if you figured it out correctly, this is not a guarantee of success. When sending an email to an employer, you must without fail take care of the following things:

  • a readable format of a text document (resume) that you attach to the body of the letter;
  • transmittal letter, short and concise, written in accordance with the requirements that formal business style(you can specify more detailed information in it - experience, preferences, motivation);
  • the subject of the letter - this item is mandatory, otherwise your message may easily end up in the spam folder.

If you have taken these points into account, your letter is sustained in the best traditions of business correspondence and, at least, will not cause a subconscious negative assessment in the addressee. By the way, this is a little strange, but sometimes even the mailbox address can play a role. Perhaps you registered your email in high school or while studying at the university, and used a name for this that you found funny, interesting, or meaningful. Now put yourself in the shoes of an employer who received an email from a person with the email address "homyak_ubiytca" who is applying for the position of Deputy General Manager.

So, if the address of your mailbox is original, it’s better to get yourself another one for official correspondence, and use the surname and initials for its name.

Don't get carried away with smilies. An exception is if the vacancy was presented in an informal style, and the overall corporate image involves communication in this format. Now this is no longer a rarity, but still, if you get a job in a company that adheres to the traditional style of communication between employees, it is better to refrain from emoticons. Slang and profanity are also unacceptable.

Step-by-step algorithm for sending a letter to the employer's email

You may not be familiar with modern technologies, and even such an ordinary operation as sending a letter can cause difficulties. Especially for you - a step-by-step list of actions that you need to take.

  • log in to the mail by entering your username and password;
  • select the column "write a message" in the menu and click on it with the left mouse button;
  • specify the subject of the letter;
  • type text (or copy prepared in advance) in the dialog box that appears;
  • find the “attach” icon at the bottom, click on it and select the desired file in the window that appears;
  • specify the recipient;
  • press the "send" button.

Now take a look at a few useful tips, which may come in handy when you send a letter to a company where you want to work.

  • Try to send a letter in the morning or in the evening. As a rule, this is the time when most people check their mailbox, and your message will be much more likely to be noticed. If the resume is sent to the post office during the day, after it you may receive several notifications about promotions and letters from competitors, the addressee may not reach your message.
  • Report your letter. Mail by mail, and no one canceled the phone. After submitting your resume, simply call the HR department, tell them you are interested in working for this company, and you can check your resume by checking your mailbox. If you are confident enough, ask the department to call you back and tell you when you can come for an interview.
  • When writing a resume, first type the text of the cover letter, check if you did it correctly, then attach the document (of course, also carefully checked). Only after that you should write the address of the employer, because one wrong mouse movement - and you run the risk of sending him an indistinct piece of text, in which, perhaps, there will also be errors. The first impression is very easy to spoil, so it will be safer to play it safe.
  • If the employer asks you to send some other files in addition to your resume, for example, a photo, a copy of work book or a document on education, it is highly desirable if all this is placed in one file. This helps organize information about you and speeds up decision making.
  • If you plan to submit a resume to several companies at once, it is better to do this not by mailing, but by sending individual messages to everyone. Why? Yes, because a potential employer will not at all enter into a struggle with “competitors” for the opportunity to employ you in their own company. Most likely, he will consider that you are a “random guest” who does not seriously consider his vacancy and sent a resume “for show”, and will not answer you with a positive verdict.

Today it is simply impossible to find a job without a well-written resume. In the 21st century, a resume is a modern tool that helps many citizens find a job for themselves online. Such a document will immediately tell the employer about all your strengths and weaknesses, so he should pay attention and approach the issue as seriously as possible. Now it is possible to create and download a competent resume with a photo online using an online designer in just three steps.
