I tend to write duplicate posts, so I checked if I had written anything on resume and found out that I did do so but that was a more of a general thing. So if you want to check that one first here is the link Professional Resume Tips. So read along for IT consultants resume tips, it can also be helpful for IT professionals in general. These are trade secrets so don’t miss it. Here we go
1. So the first thing is that the resume should have a summary of the whole resume at the top, it should be a bulleted list of points telling about the skills you possess and in order of their priority.
2. Next is the technical skills section, it should list all your technical skills, probably in a table.
3. Next is the education section, this should list out your education details in brief, the thing to list here would be university and GPA.
4. Then Professional Experience Section, list the client name, location, duration and responsibilities. Responsibilities can be a bulleted list and if applicable list the technical environment of the project.eg: Environment: Windows, .NET, MS SQL etc.
5. Also the most important thing is to count the keywords in your resume, this number depends on a lot of factors but the more they are the more chances of your resume landing on the first page of a job site like dice.com. eg: for a java developer, the keywords might be java, struts, J2EE. Make sure you have enough of them in your resume.
