More or less resume works as an advertisement, it does not tell interviewer what you have done but makes the same assertion that all good ads do. So resume must be solid and effective to improve your chances of landing that dream job. Many people write resume as if the purpose of the document to land a job and they write long and boring history of their own. Keep in mind that objective of the resume is to grab the interview. Many of us do not know how the resume should be? What are the required details? And so on. I will give you some hints to write a good and attractive resume.
