    A great resume does not only relay your previous work experience, but like any great ad, advertises the specific benefits of working with you. One of the first things that an employer sees on your resume is your objective statement. It is often debated whether you should include this statement at all and if you choose to, how specific it needs to be.
    The objective is most useful when the person reading your resume is unsure of the position you’re applying for, usually because this was never made clear by the company or if you’re just entering the work-force with an entry-level job. The general pitfalls of an objective statement is either making it too specific or too vague. Though the hiring manager wants to be able to tell immediately whether you’re a well-suited candidate for the position, they are even more interested in whether you are suited for the company. If your objective doesn’t convey why you would be an excellent hire, chances are your resume will go straight to the wastebasket. If your objective is too vague and says absolutely nothing about you, you might as well not bother writing one at all. The well-written objective will tell the employer immediately the kind of job for which you are looking and why they should hire you.
    Presentation is also important in your resume. Make sure that it has a simple and easy to read structure, that it is balanced and uncrowded, with as much space between blocks of text as possible. Keep the blocks of text no longer than six lines and use bullet points when describing your past job responsibilities (a great place to include power-words!) Make sure that the resume is uniform with the use of bullet points, boldface, italics and underlining. Most importantly, there must be no grammatical errors! A grammatically incorrect resume looks sloppy and unpolished. Make sure that your resume includes all the necessary information. For example, when discussing your previous employers, make sure that you include the company name, the city and state in which it’s located, and the years of your employment there. Stay focused! Keep in mind the job you are applying for and don’t crowd the page with unnecessary details; choose your words wisely – shorter is usually better.
    If you know the job and company that you are applying for, it is much easier to create a resume that will be most appealing to your potential employer. After conducting some preliminary research, use power-words, structure and a good objective statement to create a comprehensive, easy-to-read and pro-active sounding advertisement of yourself. Good luck!
