VA JOBS GRAND JUNCTION

In order to help you secure the job in San Diego that you are searching for, your resume should include the following information and components:

Your Contact Info: This should include your name, address, phone number, email, etc and be located prominently at the top of the page.

1. Objectives: Avoid sounding cheesy and generic, and try to update your objective section for all of the San Diego jobs that you apply for. For example, do not say A great job, say a rewarding and challenging career in the (insert career field here)” or something similar.
2. Education: List your most recent educational experience first, and be sure to mention any degrees, certifications, etc. that you have obtained. Previous Relevant Job Experience: Start with your most recent job experience first, making sure to list all of the duties you performed and the tasks that you were responsible. If you have an extensive work history, you should only list your three most recent, relevant jobs.

If your work history is limited, however, devote more time to highlighting your career accomplishments. Special Skills, Awards, Achievements, and Certifications: Be sure to include details highlighting the importance and relevance of each one, if possible.

References: It may be tempting, but do not fall into the trap that so many job seekers do of saying that your references will be available upon request. List your references, and make sure that you include all relevant contact information, as well as a brief mention as to why you are including a particular individual as a reference.

There are many different ways to write a resume, but following this method will ensure that you will appear polished, professional, and prepared, like the dedicated San Diego jobs seeker you truly are.
