IT Resume Tips
Written by Mike Lorton
Your technical resume is an important self-marketing tool. Since it demonstrates your communication and organizational skills make sure you've spent sufficient time preparing it before sending it to potential employers and after you're done have someone review it for you. Only after all of this preparation can you be certain your resume is capable of standing out from the crowd and can attract the attention of high tech employers.
Here are some tips to help:
Prioritize your points and be results oriented.
Clearly show your technical skills by listing your technical knowledge first so that a hiring manager doesn't have to look hard to find this info. Use subcategories to make it easy for the reader to scan the document and pick out key points (possible categories might include experience with web applications and databases, technical certifications, hardware, operating systems, networking/protocols, programming/languages, etc.)
A Technical Summary is also a good idea because it can contain keywords that resume scanning software can pick up.
For those with lots of contract work in their background, you can use bullets to list of your top projects, indicating the client, the scope of the project, work performed and the benefits to the client.
