Resume writing is not biographical.  A resume is a marketing tool to entice the employer or recruiter to meet you and should tell your unique, specific story.  Numbers and percentages are best used to quantify your accomplishments, and your story is best told by using statements describing an action, the need for the action, and the results.  A successful resume is a true representation of who you are and what you can do for an employer.  It does not read like a job description, and it avoids using words like responsible for and duties included.  Your resume needs to be written so specifically that it can only be yours, presenting your value and your skills.  Resumes are successful when they enable you to secure interviews.  In today’s climate, your resume is just one tool to help you get your foot in the door.  Networking by telephone, in person, and online and being armed with a powerful skills- and achievement-based resume makes a huge difference in this highly competitive marketplace.
