Does it showcase what you have accomplished for past employers as well as what you can accomplish for the potential employer? Your resume is your personal marketing tool that must immediately convey to the reader that you CAN and WILL be a positive driving force to further their organization's mission. They have a need to QUICKLY get thru all the resumes received in response to their job posting so you've got to QUICKLY grab their attention. Numerous surveys conducted by employment professionals indicate employers want to see immediately what you can do for them upon first glance at your resume.

A resume should be words packed with power that form a picture of a productive, industrious applicant in the mind's eye of the reader. It needs to immediately make a powerful and positive first impression in order to do ITS job and open the door to the interview for you.
