Resumes That Will Blow Your Potential Employers Away

There are so many kinds of resumes out there. There are the good ones, the attractive ones, the lousy ones and of course, those which will blow your potential employers away. I think that's going to be a very tough one to make. I do think that it's possible. There can be two situations for that though. It's either the resume is too good that the employer will call you the minute he finish reading it or too lousy that he can't imagine a good job seeker would write.
Of course, all job applicants want the first reaction. So how do you get to that?
Start by knowing yourself. You are your own weapon. So you have to know what you can bring out to the battle. Analyze what you can offer to the company. Check if you've got what the potential employer is looking for. If not, then don't bother to waste both of your time. Find a job that will make your potentials grow. Although it's a tough game out there, there will always be something that will fit your capabilities and skills. After finding that perfect fit, prepare your resume.
Express yourself. Through your resume, you have the tool to show off yourself. Make sure that it's the best side. Highlight your strong vision by showing that in your job objective. It should be a precise and direct to the point statement.
List your qualifications. Either educational or skills wise, you are qualified to apply for that job. That means that you need to show why. List them according to what you think will fit to the position you are applying for. Just make sure that they're 100% real.
Work it. Potential employers are interested in your previous work experiences and why you left a job. It's important to show in chronological order what you've done. There's never a small job or big job. Just know that listing them would show that you have been working. Every experience helps in making you a better worker.
Check your weapon. Re read what you wrote. Don't under estimate the power of a wrong sentence and what it can do to the overall effect of your resume. It has to be in a perfect working condition so that you're sure that it will have the potential to really help you.
And finally, attach a cover letter. Make sure that it's a great one. It's your timer to the ticking time bomb.
