The main thing in the article about graphic resumes is the ability to download a sample resume for free, which you can quickly remake for yourself. And I will share those templates that I pulled off in the bourgeoisie. But first, some lyrics...

I still remember the days when you could get a job without any resume. Make a phone call, and then professionally “trade a face” at an interview. Now this number will not work, give everyone a creative resume, not like everyone else.)) Judging by the statistics of the wordstat, even locksmiths and drivers ask “how to create a resume”. What then to say about freelancers ...

Our resume is not just a list of previous jobs, it's a business card and a selling one-page in one person. After all, there will be no opportunity to show your charm in a personal conversation. The only way to unleash your full potential is graphic creative resume, where infographics not only illustrate the text, but reflect the degree of service ownership and creative thinking.

Who and why a creative resume with infographics

It is logical to assume that a graphic mega creative resume - required condition for web designers. Not better way to show their talents than to combine a boring list of jobs with a bright, memorable picture. However, there is a category of freelancers for whom an infographic resume, although not necessary, will be a great advantage, as it will allow you to stand out from the growing number of job seekers for remote work.

• Content Managers who need to show the level of proficiency in photo and video editors, literacy and understanding of the concept of the future employer;
• copywriters, who are obliged to amaze with the originality of style and technical savvy in the field of web and selling texts;
• Social media administrators those wishing to demonstrate the possession of various means to attract potential target audience;
• Internet project managers. This position is more administrative and implies organizational skills, communication skills and basic knowledge in the field of content creation, SEO promotion, advertising and marketing strategies;
• Marketers and Traffic Specialists through infographics and a creative resume, they get the opportunity to visually demonstrate their achievements on former places work.

True, these freelancers generally do not need design skills in their work. So, if you want to impress the employer, there are two options left: master Photoshop or order a resume on the stock exchange. The first method is time-consuming, but free, the second saves time, but costs money. There is a third option, an intermediate one - download an example of a graphic resume and slightly correct the text in Photoshop. And the talent of the designer is not required.

Where to download a sample creative resume

From my experience, the Runet does not produce anything useful for the request “download an example of a graphic resume”. Several sites offer to allegedly download templates from file hosting sites, but after 15 minutes of suffering over timers and captchas, the links turn out to be empty.
Some blogs are ripping off each other's review foreign services, like Canadian Visualize.me, resumup or French DoYouBuzz. None of the services support the Russian language, but this is a trifle. At random, you fill in the columns in the hope of "inserting" all this into beautiful pattern and get a nice file in pdf or at least in word. And at the finish line, it turns out that in the free version, only one simple topic is available to you (in particular, in DoYouBuzz). In addition, downloading is a paid option (from 40 € per minute). And that's just for one resume.

Disillusioned with the generosity of the Runet, I went to surf the bourgeoisie with the request “resume templates psd” and quickly found 4 very worthy, completely free graphic resume templates with different color schemes.

Graphic Resume Option #1 (4 color schemes)

Graphic Summary Option #2

Graphic Resume Option #3

Graphic Resume Option #4 (4 color schemes)

Templates in my opinion are quite expressive, but not too catchy. You don't have to register or enter captchas to download a sample resume. Just click on the button.)) If you wish, you can "play with colors and fonts", and to edit the text, just turn on "layers". An hour or two and a professional creative resume with infographics is ready.
So download to your health and good luck in your search for a generous employer)).

P.S. If you are looking for simpler and more traditional options, Visually no worse and no need for Photoshop.

More useful information for remote work:

Listen to a man who has looked at over 100,000 resumes in his entire career and really knows how to make a resume more attractive. By the way, here's my LinkedIn profile, see for yourself: mpritula .

But let's agree right away: no deception in the resume. Only honest information. How to make your resume really cool without cheating - about this in my life hacks.

Why is it almost perfect? Here are 10 tips I could give on this resume:

• Take a photo on a plain background (white or gray).
• Remove one phone. Why should a recruiter think about where to call?
• Change email to personal, not some company.
• Remove marital status.
• Combine competencies and key experience. Shorten sentences to 7-10 words and arrange in the form of a list.
• Remove recommendations.
• Correct the mistake in the word "company" in the last place of work.
• Reduce responsibilities to 10 lines.
• Make the link short (bit.ly, goo.gl).
• cut down overall volume resume up to two pages.

Making your resume more valuable

Now let's talk about what makes a resume more expensive. I advise people on how to improve their resumes. Representatives of various positions send me their resumes: from ordinary salespeople to company directors. Everyone makes the same mistakes. There was not a single resume to which I could not write 10 tips on how to improve it. Below I have collected the most frequent advice that I gave on the submitted resumes.

10. Combine many jobs into one

It is considered normal if a person has been working in a company for 2-3 years. If he changes jobs more often, he may be called a job hopper. Recruiters do not like such people, since about 70% of customers refuse to consider such candidates. And this is quite natural.

A person after a year of work is just beginning to benefit the company.

Of course, everyone has the right to make a mistake, and a good resume can have a couple of places where the candidate worked for 1–1.5 years. But if the whole resume looks like this, then its value is very low.

However, it often happens that a person has changed several job positions in one company or moved from company to company within a holding structure. Or was doing project work, within which he changed several employers.

In such cases (and wherever possible) I recommend that this be done as one place of work, with one name and common dates of work. And inside this block, you can unobtrusively show the change of positions, but so that visually, during a cursory examination of the resume, there is no feeling of frequent job changes.

11. Stick to the ideal length of your resume

I believe that the ideal length of a resume is strictly two pages. One is too little, only for students, and three is already too much.

If everything is clear with one page - such a resume looks like a resume of a novice specialist - then with three, four, and so on pages, everything is not so obvious. And the answer is simple: the recruiter will look at only two pages in 80% of cases. And it will read only what you have indicated on these two pages. Therefore, whatever you write on the third and subsequent pages, it will be left without attention. And if you write there valuable information about yourself, the recruiter will not know about it.

12. Share your accomplishments

If you remember only one sentence from my article, let it be about achievements. This immediately adds 50% value to your resume. The recruiter is simply not able to interview everyone who sent a resume. Therefore, the one who indicated his achievements and was able thereby to interest the recruiter will always win.

Achievements are your measurable ones, which are expressed in numbers, terms or significant qualitative changes in the company. They must be specific, measurable, impressive and relevant to the position.

Achievement example:

• Increased TV sales by 30% in three months (store manager).
• Brought a new product to the market in four months, which helped to earn 800 thousand dollars in six months (marketing director).
• Negotiated with suppliers and increased the delay in payments by 30 days, saving the company on loans - 100 thousand dollars a month (buyer).
• Reduced staff turnover from 25% to 18% through work with employee engagement (HR).

13. Tell me about your personal qualities

Now more and more more attention in the selection of candidates is given personal qualities employee. If you analyze what exactly you will be assessed at the interview, then most likely it will be like this:

• 40% - professional knowledge;
• 40% - personal qualities;
• 20% - motivation (the desire to do this particular job in this particular company).

What are personal qualities? These are personal qualities of a person that contribute to effective implementation their duties.

This includes: energy, openness, ability to work in a team, initiative, proactivity and so on. And it's no longer empty words, at the interview, more and more often you will hear this question: "Tell me about the situation in which you had to take responsibility, and how you coped with it." This is called competency assessment.

Therefore, your personal qualities, especially if they correspond to those required in the vacancy, are extremely important. And if earlier it was enough just to list them, now this is no longer enough. Now you need to confirm their presence, so I recommend writing them like this (examples, of course, give your own, binding rule: they must all be real and from the past):

• Initiative: developed and implemented a strategy for exiting the department from the crisis when the head left.
• Energized: My 2014 sales volume was 30% above the departmental average.
• Stress resistance: I successfully negotiated with a client who refused seven managers, and concluded an agreement with him.
• Leadership: conducted five management trainings and raised 10 managers from line employees.

Here it is important to write not many qualities, but qualities with examples. That is, examples here are more important than quantity.

14. Throw functional responsibilities out of the job description in the trash!

The functional responsibilities that are indicated in the resume are usually the most banal and boring thing. In 30% of cases they are copied from their own job description, in 50% of cases - from other people's resumes or job descriptions, and only 20% really write them with high quality on their own.

I always recommend writing exactly duties, not areas of responsibility, and describe them in the form of actions that you performed. This is about the same as with achievements, but numbers are not required here, responsibilities may not be so impressive, and, of course, these are not one-time actions.

Before writing them, I recommend reading a few vacancies to get an idea of ​​\u200b\u200bwhat is generally worth writing about. Next, write out the responsibilities in order of their importance: in the first place the most significant (strategy development, launching new products on the market), and in the last - the least (preparation of reports).

15. Sell your job title and company

Job titles and a list of companies are, in fact, exactly what a recruiter looks for in a resume in the first place. It's like a customer skimming the shelf in a store looking for familiar brands (Nescafe, Procter & Gamble, Gallina Blanka, Mars, Snickers, Tide). It is on these lines that the recruiter forms the initial cost of the resume in his head and only then begins to look for details.

• We write only the common name. If you work for Nails and Nuts LLC, which is an official dealer of Coca-Cola, then simply write Coca-Cola. Believe me, the legal name of the company is of no interest to anyone.
• In brackets we write the number of employees, for example: IBM (3,000 employees).
• Under the name of the company, we write briefly in 7–10 words what it does. For example: in the top 5 in consumer lending.
• If the company is little known, but works with well-known brands, be sure to indicate this. For example: Autosupersuperleasing (leasing partner of BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Honda). The name of well-known brands next to an unknown company will greatly enhance the perception of the company.

16. Remove formulaic phrases from the "Goal" section

Immediately after your contact details on your resume, there is a section called “Purpose”. Usually in this section they write formulaic phrases like "Maximize your potential ...". Here you need to list the list of positions that you are interested in.

17. Always check your spelling

Typically, about 5% of all resumes I view contain errors:

• elementary grammatical errors(there was no spell check);
• mistakes in writing foreign words (only Russian spelling check is configured);
• errors in punctuation marks: a space before a comma, a comma between words without spaces;
• in the lists at the end of the sentence are different signs punctuation (ideally, they should not be; a period is placed after the last item in the list).

18. Save your resume in DOCX format and nothing else

• Not a PDF - many recruiters make their edits or notes (salary expectations, their impressions of the candidate, information that was obtained during the interview) in the resume before sending it to the client, they will not be able to make them in PDF.
• Not ODT - may not open correctly on some computers.
• Not DOC - a sign that the resume comes from the past (pre-Office 2007).
• Not RTF - usually weighs more than alternatives.

19. Use a Recruiter Friendly Resume File Name

The title of the resume file should contain at least the last name and preferably the position. So it will be more convenient for the recruiter to look for a resume on his disk, send it, and so on. A little concern for the recruiter will definitely be noted. Again, in the eyes of the recruiter, this makes the resume a bit more expensive.

20. Show your value in a cover letter

Exist different opinions about cover letters. I always say this: a good cover letter can add value to a resume 20% of the time if it's written right. But it is not always necessary.

If you decide to write it, then here's a simple structure for you:

And if you show an example, then it could look like this:

Mistakes on your resume

Along with the secrets to increasing the cost of a resume, there are things that make a resume significantly cheaper. Let's talk about some of them.

Now many job search sites allow you to download a resume created there. At the same time, they must add their logo to such a resume and different fields to enter information that is not needed at all for a resume. For example, gender. These resumes look like real cheap, so I advise you never to do this.

21. Remove obscure abbreviations

When you work for a company for a long time, some of the abbreviations adopted in it already seem so familiar that you write them in your resume. But they are unfamiliar to the recruiter, so it is very lost important information. Try to avoid abbreviations wherever possible.

22. Paraphrase formulaic phrases

Very often you want to give in to the temptation and stuff into your resume formulaic phrases that can be easily found in any resume or job description. Avoid them, as they represent empty space for the recruiter.

Rephrase, for example:

• Result orientation = in my work I always think about the result.
• Customer focus = the client always comes first for me = I put the interests of the client above my own.
• Sociability = I can easily negotiate with any clients/colleagues = I freely maintain a conversation with clients.

23. Create a normal box

What separates a professional from a child? A professional calls his mailbox by name and surname, and a child - by children's words, nicknames from games and forums, date of birth.

Well, it is absolutely unacceptable to indicate your workbox. The recruiter in this case will interpret this nuance as follows: “I am fired from my job, and therefore I can not be afraid and send my resume from my work email.”

24. Remove marital status, it is only of interest to visitors to dating sites

There is only one case where the indication marital status can play positive role: if a young girl is looking for a job and wants to show that she will not go on maternity leave immediately after employment. In this case, you can indicate the presence of children.

The options “civil marriage”, “divorced” immediately reduce the cost of a resume, as additional questions arise.

The option “I have children” is written by very narrow-minded people, since everyone normal people « ». :)

25. Explain the work experience gap

You can’t just take and show a gap in work. It is necessary to write why it arose. The option “I will explain at the interview” is not suitable, since the recruiter, seeing the gap, will think the worst that could happen.

If there was a decree between two jobs, then we write. By the way, if the decree was without leaving for another job, there is no point in writing it at all. I don’t even recommend highlighting this in an interview.

26. Remove the last job end date

This is the one resume trick that can be forgiven. It is believed that a person draws up a resume before the dismissal and after the dismissal simply does not update this date. In any case, the specified date of dismissal will play against you.

27. Don't write reasons for quitting

There is no reason why you need to write down the reasons for dismissal. Whatever you write there, the recruiter will always have a suspicion about your desire to explain the reason for the dismissal. Or maybe you're lying?

28. Don't explain the details of your resume

It is not allowed to write explanations, comments, footnotes, etc. in the summary. Only dates, facts, achievements.

The worst thing that can be is the "Recommendations" section and the phrase "I will provide on request." What's the point of this section? The list of references is redundant. No one will call them before the interview with you. And after the interview, you can already provide this list if there is a request.

30. Remove tables and large indents

The tables in the summary were adopted in the early 2000s. Then the whole civilized world abandoned them. Don't act like a dinosaur.

Also don't take most the summary is very large indented on the left side of the document.

31. Leave the first jobs for your grandmother

For simplicity, I'll just describe how it will be OK:

• Last place of work: 7-10 lines of duties and 5-7 lines of achievements.
• Past place of work: 5-7 lines of duties and 3-5 lines of achievements.
• Place of work before last: 3-5 lines of duties and 3 lines of achievements.
• Other places of work: 3 lines + 3 lines of achievements, if they are included in the interval of the last 10 years of work.
• Everything that was before 10 years ago: only the names of companies and positions.
• If in your career there were jobs that were not relevant to the current position, feel free to delete them. For example, now you are a marketing director, and started 15 years ago as an engineer at a factory or a salesman in the market.

32. Remove the vocational school

If you studied at a vocational school, college, technical school, and then graduated from a university, show only the university.

33. Do not show resumes to HR specialists you know if you are not sure of their professionalism

We have a lot of HR professionals who consider themselves gurus and give advice left and right. Find out how many vacancies they filled themselves, how many people interview on average per day. What books have you read about recruiting? How many of them were foreign.

If you get answers like this:

• more than 500 vacancies;
• 5-10 per day;
• more than five books (at least!);
• Lou Adler, Bill Radin, Tony Byrne;

…then feel free to trust the advice!

I spend a little research, so in the comments to this post, write which of all the tips described turned out to be the most valuable for you. This will help me understand your needs and write another cool article about how to sell yourself more expensively during an interview.

1. What is a resume and what is it for?

If you still do not quite understand what a resume is, I propose to give it a definition:

Summary- this is brief self-presentation in writing Your professional skills, achievements and personal qualities that you plan to successfully implement in your future job in order to receive compensation for them (for example, in the form of money or other type of compensation)

I myself in the past had to write a resume when applying for a job. Indeed, without this, no employer will even know about you and your professional skills.

I remember when I sat down to write my resume for the first time, it took me a lot of time to competently compose it and arrange it according to all standards. And since I like to understand everything thoroughly, I also studied the issue of its correct spelling very deeply. For this, I spoke with professional specialists frame by frame and studied a large number of related articles.

So what is the secret to writing a good resume? Read about it below.

2. How to write a resume - 10 easy steps

Before moving on to the steps, I want you to remember 3 main rules for successful resume writing:

Rule number 1. Write the truth, but not the whole

Focus on your strengths and don't talk too much about your weaknesses. You will be asked about them at the interview, be prepared for this.

Rule number 2. Stick to a clear structure

The summary is written on 1-2 sheets, no more. Therefore, try to briefly and succinctly state in it all necessary information, even if there is a lot of it.

Take care of the accurate formatting of the resume text, its structured presentation. Since no one is pleased to read abracadabra.

Rule number 3. Be optimistic and cheerful

Positive people attract success. In your case, a new job.

So, let's move on to the structure of the resume.

Step 1. Resume Title

Here you must write the word "Summary" itself and indicate to whom it is drawn up.

All this is written in one line.

For example: CV Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich

Then your potential employer immediately understand who owns the resume. For example, you have previously called a company you are interested in in order to find out if they still have this vacancy open. You were given a positive response and offered to send a resume.

At the end of the first step, your resume will look like this:

Step 2. Purpose of the resume

It must be remembered that your resume must have a purpose. Correctly formulate it as follows (phrase):

The purpose of the resume is to apply for the position of an accountant

Since at this moment you are called that - an applicant, that is, a person, job seeker, potentially claiming it.

At the end of the second step, your resume will look like this:

Step 3. Applicant and his data

At this point, you must write the following:

• date of birth;
• address;
• contact number;
• e-mail;
• marital status.

At the end of the third step, your resume should look like this:

Step 4. Education

If you have several formations, then write them in order.

For example:

Moscow State University, 2005-2010,

Speciality: accountant (bachelor)

Moscow State University, 2007-2013,

Speciality: translator in the field of professional communication (bachelor)

On the this stage Your resume should look like this:

Step 5. Experience

Please note that the column "work experience" is written in the resume starting from the most last place Your work, if it is not the only one, and begins with the period spent in this position.

For example:

Job title: chief accountant's assistant;

Job title: accountant

So we have already written half of the summary, it should look like this:

Step 6. Job Responsibilities

This item in the resume is not always required if the vacancy you are applying for is quite common, and you held a similar position at a previous job.

Sometimes this item can be included in the previous one by writing your job responsibilities immediately after the position.

Step 7. Achievements in previous jobs

The item "Achievements" is one of the most important in the resume! It is much more important than education and even work experience.

Your potential employer wants to know exactly what he will pay you for wages. Therefore, it is very important to mention when writing a resume about all significant achievements in previous jobs. At the same time, please note that it is correct to write in words that are the so-called "markers" for personnel officers who are considering your resume.

For example, it is correct to write:

• increased sales volumes by 30 percent in 6 months;
• developed and implemented new technology into production;
• shortened equipment maintenance costs by 40%.

Wrong to write:

• worked to increase sales;
• took part in a project to create a new technology;
• reduced equipment costs.

As you can see, it is also important to write specific numbers, as they very clearly reflect the essence of your achievements.

Now your resume looks like this:

Step 8. Additional Information

Here you need to describe your strengths, professional knowledge and skills that will directly help you to better and better perform the tasks assigned to you at a new job.

Usually they write the following:

1. Knowledge of computers and specialized software. This is relevant for office workers and employees whose direct work is related to the PC. For example, for designers, accountants, programmers, office managers.
2. Proficiency in foreign languages. If your future job involves reading, translating or communicating in a foreign language and you speak it to a certain extent, be sure to write about it. For example: English spoken.
3. Having a car and driving skills. If your work involves business trips and you often have to drive a car, for example, working as a sales representative, then you should indicate the presence of your car, as well as the category of driver's license and experience.

Thus, in additional information along with computer skills and foreign language write: there is a personal car, category B, experience 5 years.

Step 9. Personal qualities

There is no need to describe too many qualities here, especially if they do not apply to your future work. you can be kind and sympathetic person who love children and respect their friends, but a potential employer will not be interested in reading about your "cordiality" and rich inner world.

For example, if you are applying for the position of an accountant, then it would be good to write here: composure, attentiveness, punctuality, efficiency, mathematical warehouse mind, the ability to analyze.

If you are applying for more creative profession, let's say a designer or creator, then it should be indicated here: developed creative imagination, sense of style, non-standard look on the problem, healthy perfectionism.

It will be great if you mention your full name at the end of your resume. and positions of your former managers, as well as indicate their contact numbers so that your potential employer or his representative can verify your professionalism by receiving feedback about you from your former direct supervisors.

Even if your potential employer does not call your former supervisors, the mere fact of having contacts for recommendations will significantly increase his confidence in you.

At the very end of the resume, you must indicate when you are ready to start working, here you can also indicate the desired level of remuneration.

The final look of your resume:

Congratulations! Your resume is 100% ready!

So, today we will be presented with examples of the best resumes. Without this document, it is now very difficult to imagine employment. And, accordingly, when a person does not have it, then the chances of taking a vacancy are rapidly approaching zero. Thus, you have to think a lot about how to write a resume. Sometimes it is made inconsistent with reality. To some extent, this is correct. Especially if you are a fast learner. Then you can always quickly master those skills and programs that are indicated in the document. But if this is not so, then only the truth will have to be written. Examples of the best resumes are those that demonstrate not only your skills and abilities, but also your honesty. So let's get started on today's topic as soon as possible.

concept

Let's start by trying to understand more clearly what will be discussed today. To know how to write a good resume (we will look at an example of it by components), you will have to figure out what we are dealing with. Maybe this will already help you understand what you need to write in this document.

So what is a resume? This is a document that reflects your skills and characteristics, as well as places previous work. A kind of questionnaire for employment. You can't get a job without her now. Is that a loader, and that's not a fact. In the resume, as a rule, they also indicate personal characteristics of the character. And, of course, there is a small list of must-have items. After all, the wrong thing can just ruin your career.

To be honest, it takes a lot of honesty to write such a document. You can lie only about your character. After all, the majority of the population is now nervous. And it's very bad trait. It's better not to mention it. So let's try to look at an example of creating a good resume for different vacancies. In addition, it is worth paying attention to the universal option, which is suitable for absolutely any profession.

About myself

It starts with one simple point - about yourself. You can also see the wording of contact details. To be honest, this "place" is the easiest to fill. To fill it with information, you may need a passport.

The first thing you should pay attention to is your contact details. Or rather, personal. First name, last name and patronymic. This is the most important point. Without it, the resume is not valid. Examples of the best resumes cannot be imagined without a "name". Write full name, surname and patronymic. Next, you will have to fill in the city of residence, as well as provide your home address. Sometimes it can be omitted at the very beginning. But then you still have to.

If you do not live at the place of registration or temporary registration, then indicate two addresses - actual and registration. This will help you avoid problems in the future. summary? We will see examples a little later. In the meantime, let's take a look at what is worth writing in this document. After the address and personal data, you need to publish your phone number, as well as email. This will help in the future to contact you more quickly if necessary.

Among other things, you will also have to indicate your gender, age, desired income level, as well as marital status and date of birth. To be honest, without these points, not a single example of a good resume can consist. So try to be as honest as possible here. And in general, there is nothing special here. As already said, this moment is the easiest area to fill in. Now it's time to move on to more difficult things.

Education

The best resumes, examples (concrete) of which we will study a little later, cannot be imagined without such important point like education. To be honest, in the absence of it, you may have problems with employment. After all, now every employer wants to get himself a truly good and educated subordinate. But there are exceptions.

As a rule, the examples of the best resumes in the column "Education" reflect all the information about your lifelong learning, starting with the school itself. But usually only the fact of the end is indicated here. high school(with the year of issue), as well as the availability higher education. If you are just learning, this is also worth pointing out.

So, if you need to see an example of a good engineer resume, then in this paragraph there should be an average full school education, as well as training at a technical university. Which one depends on your specialty. Indicate not only the faculty, but also the direction. For example: MSGU, "Automation and Control", specialty "Robots and Robotic Systems", study period from 2005 to 2010. By the way, the more prestigious your university, the better. Often you can not have any knowledge, but graduate from a good university educational institution. And this will allow you to get a lot of attention from employers. After all, first you will be "meeted" by diplomas and a questionnaire, and only then - by professional skills and opportunities. So already in adolescence think about the future of the university.

True, sometimes examples of the best resumes have small exceptions. AT rare cases in the column "Education" it is enough to write simply "secondary full" and the place where you studied. In this case, you must have extra baggage necessary knowledge and skills that are somehow confirmed. For example, diplomas from olympiads or additional diplomas from courses. In addition, some employers make a “discount” on education if the employee is the most suitable for all other parameters. But all this happens very rarely. Do not count on such a gift of fate.

Additional education

next extremely important point- this is nothing but a university and a school - this is all, of course, good. But now many employers want to get real professionals who are comprehensively developed as their subordinates. And so now the best resumes you can find examples include a fairly extensive item of additional education. In principle, you can do without it. But it's better not to. You always need to demonstrate your skills and abilities to the maximum in order to be among the first candidates for a particular vacancy.

Of course, you often have to take into account the place where you want to find a job. So, by the way, if you need an example of a good manager's resume, then you should not write in it about the completion of, say, "magician" courses or some kind of entertainment areas. It will be redundant. But the fact that you have completed courses in accounting or human resource management must be indicated. So this is a very important point.

In principle, any example of a good resume includes additional education in the field of computers. If you have it, then it will be a huge plus. Especially if you decide to work in an office. In this case, you can sometimes count on an increase in salary. But not much. After all, often additional responsibilities are not paid in Russia. Every employer wants to get a universal worker who will do all the work for him and earn a penny. However, if it is more important for you to make a correct and worthy resume, then take care of the availability of additional education in advance. Remember, this is very important when taking on a particular job.

Places of former work

Also important is the indication of the previous place of work. More precisely, all your career ladder. Examples of a good resume for applying for a job, as a rule, have a very long list. And without it, difficulties can arise. Especially if you have just graduated from the university, but did not work officially before. And they didn't even try.

The fact is that without work experience you will be reluctantly hired. Nobody needs a smart worker who doesn't know how to apply his skills. Sometimes an employer may "discount" a given item, but unless you are on probationary period you can prove that you are worthy of attention. An example of a good resume without is not an easy task. And it can be allowed only in adolescence. Well, or not count on a good salary.

In addition to indicating places and job vacancies, it is also worth paying attention to the reason for dismissal. Either you write it yourself, or you will be asked during the interview. It's usually customary to ask. In addition, do not forget to indicate the duration of your stay in the same places. And, if you decide to just change jobs for normal reasons (downsizing, salary levels, schedule, and so on), then you can also leave the phone numbers of your former bosses. This will help you give assurances that someone can vouch for you. That is, tell what kind of employee you really are. In principle, an example of a good sales manager resume, for example, may not contain any experience and jobs in official order. AT this case state that you worked unofficially for certain reasons, and also give contacts of the previous employer. Ask him to contact him for advice. You can do without it, but it's better not to.

Remember, the more experience you have and the smaller your list of jobs, the better. It is important to show that you are a diligent and responsible employee who can work and perform the same tasks for a long time. And jobs will help you with this. Let's try to figure out what else can be in a good resume that will be yours " calling card"when hiring.

expectations

Quite often, a resume turns out to be not only the "face" of a person, but also his profile. True, it is not universal. After all, at every workplace you will have to change such an item as expectations from work. In principle, you can do without it. But it's better not to. Verbally explaining what and why you want will be quite difficult. After all, employers will start asking you leading questions. And you can simply get worried and confused. So let's try to figure out which example of a good resume will be extremely effective in this regard.

The thing is, the point here is not to exaggerate. Of course, everyone wants high salary. But you don't have to start right away. After all this technique may simply scare away the employer. People will think that you are too arrogant. And this is of no use to us. So the list of expectations must be in the first place:

career;

development of the company;

friendly team;

self-development.

Only then it is worth specifying the salary. And it would be better to write "decent pay". In this case, it will be clear that you, like everyone else, want to get a lot. But you are ready to really work for this, and not just sit your pants in the office doing nothing. So in this case, the main thing is to know when to stop. True, often during the interview you will fill out a detailed questionnaire, which includes the item "Expectations", as well as everything that is only available in the resume. So it is quite possible that this document, which is prepared in advance for "labor and defense", will save you time and effort. Try to fill it in as accurately as possible.

Professional skills

An example of creating a good resume is not only an indication of your education or expectations from a new job. First of all, this document is nothing more than a demonstration of yours. They, by the way, may not depend on education. Often this phenomenon gives a huge advantage over other applicants. So, try to tell the employer about your professional skills as much as possible.

As you might have guessed, they generally depend on each profession and position. And universal variant not here. For example, if you need an example of a good manager resume, then in this paragraph you should indicate:

the ability to find an approach to people;

salesmanship;

the ability to prove that a person needs exactly your product;

In general, it is very difficult to find the correct answer here. Ask yourself the question: "What does it take to perform your job duties normally and effectively?". This will help you figure out what to write in professional skills. However, in the case of economists and lawyers, things are a little simpler. It is enough for them to indicate knowledge of the law, the ability to carry out calculations of varying complexity, and everything like that. So, this is probably the moment that will cause you the most difficulty. Try to think in advance about what to write here. Otherwise, it will take a very long time to explain to the employer about your skills and abilities.

Personal qualities

Examples of the best resumes, to be honest, constantly include such an item as You can’t do without them. It is good when the employer has an idea about your education and skills, as well as work experience. But understanding what kind of person you are is also very important. For this reason, every resume should have a clause about personal qualities. Or your personality traits. Here you can answer some additional standard questionnaire questions. Just what many employers need.

Of course, it is worth specifying only the qualities that are important for the work. And here everything is more depends on what position you are applying for. Only here is a small standard list of qualities that every employee should have. And in this sense, some potential employees choose the path of lies. They indicate the qualities that they do not possess. Sometimes this behavior is acceptable. How to make a good resume? The example must necessarily contain a specific list of character traits. So, the universal personal qualities include:

a responsibility;

perseverance;

diligence;

the ability to perform monotonous work for a long time;

stress tolerance;

calm;

honesty;

decency;

competence;

• punctuality;

  fast learner;

  honesty;

  culture.

This list can still be expanded. But these items are mandatory for each employee. Sometimes when filling out the questionnaire, you may be asked leading questions. It is also better to indicate them in the resume. What can be written? For example:

"What will you do if you see that your colleague is cheating or breaking the rules?" - I'll tell the authorities.

"How do you get rid of stress?" - I drink a cup of tea / coffee / juice, take a bath at home and so on.

"Are you willing to cheat for the sake of own benefit?" - Not.

"You have a personal conflict with a colleague. What will you do?" - Avoid unnecessary communication, unnecessarily ignored.

In principle, this is enough. Thus, you can emphasize your advantage over others, and also show that you are not some kind of "six", but a diligent employee. This is now highly valued.

Manager

Of course, the most popular job now (especially without work experience) is a manager. Therefore, now we will try to give an example of a decent resume for this employee. Let's take a look at sales managers. After all, now it is customary to call "managers" almost any person who is engaged in or manages something. So let's get started.

Last name, first name and patronymics write your own. This is where you should write all your personal data. For example:

Full name: Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich.

City of residence: Moscow.

Address: Moscow, st. Ivan Susanin 32b apt. 64.

Date of birth: 10/12/1992.

Gender: male.

Marital status: Not maried.




Conclusion

So, today we saw examples of the best resumes imaginable. True, occasionally. And only the resume of the sales manager was analyzed using a good example. To be honest, according to this scheme, it is worth compiling this document for any vacancies. Only personal data changes, as well as work experience and education. Otherwise, it is better to leave everything in the "template" version.

Remember that your resume plays important role when hiring. And so he should be given Special attention. Try to set aside a few hours to complete it. Don't forget to attach your photo to the "Personal Information" section as well. Appearance also sometimes plays pretty big role. That's all. Now you just have to select a vacancy, and then edit good example summary. You can get a job. So you know how to make a good resume for work, an example of which can only please.

“I don’t advise job seekers to send a standard resume: if they come, I erase them without reading them. The person who made the resume according to the rules is a job specialist, and I would like to work with specialists in other areas.”

Artemy Lebedev.

What is a custom resume? Do I need to complete it to apply for a job? How will the personnel officer and employer react to him?

A creative resume is called non-standard, which differs from the usual one both in form and content. It could be humorous story about yourself in free form, slideshow, poster, billboard, newspaper, video, etc. Does it need to be done? There is often an opinion on the net that the personnel manager will most likely reject the “non-standard” candidate, and the creative director will pay closer attention to him and, perhaps, this will play a role in the decision. Is it really?

In order to find out, we asked several questions to personnel officers and managers.

1. What is your attitude towards non-standard resumes?

- We do not have clear criteria for resume parameters in our company. I look at absolutely everything. There are no preferences. The only thing is that I do not like long resumes, but this does not mean at all that I do not consider such candidates. (Olga Morozova, HR Manager, METRO, Moscow)

- The usual standard resume is much more convenient and informative for the employer. (Ruben Goltukhchyan, creative director)

- Just a creative resume does not impress me for a long time. I try to take people, first of all, professional ones. In our industry (design, graphic design), creativity is a matter of course. This parameter is clearly visible in the works, in the portfolio, in the places where the candidate used to work. Those who try to "amaze" with unbridled creativity, without confirmation of professional skills, I will never hire. I think the 80/20 principle can be applied here as well. Be 80% professional and restrained and 20% creative. (Mikhail Gubergrits, creative director of the LINII design studio, curator of the Identity and Brand Design faculty of the Wordshop Academy of Communication)

— Standard resumes are easier and faster to read and analyze. Non-standard ones attract attention, but are more appropriate if they come to a vacancy that involves creativity. The way we write a resume has little to no effect on our decision. We look at the facts and portfolio. (HR Manager #1)

- A non-standard resume is good as an attachment to a standard one, if the candidate positions himself for a position that implies creative approach. This is often referred to as a portfolio. I often request it from candidates for such vacancies as a copywriter, SMM specialist, designer, and related ones. (HR Manager #2)

2. What custom resumes met in your practice, produced positive impression and helped the applicant get a job in your company?

- There were practically no memorable and obviously non-standard resumes. The maximum is a file with graphics, drawings or a video resume. Our decision to hire was not affected in any way. (HR Manager #1)

- Basically, non-standard resumes are sent by applicants for positions to the editorial office. As a rule, this is an infographic or a presentation. And they all make a positive impression, but this is not the determining criterion for deciding on this candidate.(Olga Morozova)

- I don’t remember examples, but both “creative” resumes and “creative” vacancy announcements have always caused surprise. It seems that they are written by people who could not realize their creativity in their work. And since I work in the creative field, it is more important for me to see a creative portfolio, and not "creative" in a resume. (Ruben Goltukhchyan)

- I am extremely positive about short and capacious resumes, where the main thing is on one page. Education. Professional career. Extra skills. A couple of phrases about motivation or reasons for contacting us. Nothing else matters. There is one clarification here. For a designer, the main thing for which they take a person is a portfolio, not a resume. Portfolio requirements are slightly different, but again, brevity and respect for yourself and others will be appreciated. (Mikhail Gubergrits)

— Met very different people. From creative sketches - there was a period when it was considered very cool - to super-abstract digital and old school. But none of them brought fruit to the applicant specifically with us. (Natalya Churina, creative director and managing partner of Ampersand visual communications agency)

3. When compiling standard resume or cover letter should the applicant add some special phrase, use humor?

- There is no special phrase. If there is a mention of the reasons why the candidate wants to work with us, this is a plus. Humor is welcome, but in moderation. Preferably in the "About Me" section. If a vacancy for a creative position with a mandatory sense of humor, then it is better to disclose this in the portfolio. In the text of the resume, many have not entirely successful attempts to joke. (HR Manager #1)

A little humor is good, but only a little. Of course, you shouldn't include jokes in professional experience but you can always smile. (HR Manager #2)

I always ask for cover letters. This is a kind of indicator of how a person can present himself. This is especially important for vacancies of sales managers. Some do add special phrases, such as "I'm cool" or "Level 80 SMM", but this absolutely does not affect the decision in any way. (Olga Morozova)

- Do not "shine" witticisms in a resume or in a cover letter. If appropriate, you can demonstrate a sense of humor during the interview. (Ruben Goltukhchyan)

- Humor is always good, but not much. Nobody likes clowns, but a couple of phrases written not quite formally and dryly will be perceived as a plus. It looks especially good if a person knows how to joke about simple and seemingly obvious resume points. (Mikhail Gubergrits)

- I am sure that humor is always good and without it it is simply impossible, it is unhealthy. But humor should be useful and intelligent. And in the case of a resume, it is almost invisible. In a resume, it can be in a quote, for example, or in one chip - this will be enough to make a first impression. (Natalya Churina)

4. What advice would you like to give a job seeker about writing a resume?

- Be sure to write correctly! At least re-read and check what was written. Write more specifics (“Working with contractors at Solnyshko LLC - this phrase does not mean anything). Do not forget to indicate which position you are interested in. Do not apply to all jobs with the same resume. And, probably, the most important thing is to be honest and not to attribute in the resume what you don’t know. At the interview, it will still be revealed and it will be unpleasant for everyone.

AT recent times more often there are resumes with phrases in an orderly tone about what an HR manager should do. For example: “Read to the end!” “Don’t call until you show your resume to the manager!” “Invite not an interview!” And be sure in bold. Attention, of course, attracts, but the desire to communicate with the candidate does not arise. (HR Manager #1)

- First of all, I want to see in the resume of the candidate his real achievements. Only now it often happens that candidates describe minor points in great detail and the resume turns into a memoir or a full autobiography :). 1-2, maximum 3 sheets is enough to present yourself favorably. (HR Manager #2)

- In my opinion, the resume should not be too long (5 pages is a lot). The summary should reflect the most important thing - this is experience, main achievements, education. It is also important for me the presence or absence of activities in social networks. And pay attention to the photo that is attached to the resume. There were cases when you open a candidate's resume, and there are two people in the photo - he and his girlfriend. In such cases, I always clarify who exactly we are considering for a vacancy. Once a girl sent a resume, where in the photo she was with a glass of champagne (or wine). Here, too, it is not clear for what purpose such a photo is attached. I would also like to say something about the cover letter. It should not be long, only the most important and most important - competitive advantages in relation to other candidates. (Olga Morozova)

- Short and to the point. Write only about those skills and achievements that will be needed on new job and interesting to the employer. If you are going to work as an accountant, but also have a diploma in auto mechanics, then it is better not to write about it. (Ruben Goltukhchyan)

- Be brief. As a rule, creative directors look at resumes for no more than 30 seconds (primarily where they worked before) and portfolios - 2-3 minutes. If you were able to arouse interest at a glance and the first pages of the portfolio also aroused interest, then everything looks already detailed and thoughtful. Each work, how everything looks, is filed, laid out.

Another piece of advice that I never cease to give to young and aspiring designers. Your level will be judged by the weakest work in your portfolio. Once again, not the strongest (there is always a risk that a strong art director helped you, there was a strong team or teacher). But your weakest job is the most correct indicator for the employer. Therefore, fewer works are better, but those that speak most advantageously about you. (Mikhail Gubergrits)

— In the process of studying at the Institute for Media and Communication Studies, there were a couple of classes on how to arrange your resume in the most effective way. There, very clearly, we laid down 5 main criteria for evaluating a resume:

1. Correspondence of the desired position indicated by the person in his resume with the wording of the vacancy. Otherwise, it turns out funny: the vacancy says, for example, “graphic designer”, and the resume is a designer, but of the interior. There are many such examples. This is from the category “like yes, but no!”
2. The presence of some kind of quote, according to which one could feel the one who is at the other end at that moment, represent his attitude to the profession or business that he wants to do.
3. Work experience first, training second. List work experience, of course, with the names of companies, their websites. The list should indicate those issues that this person supervised there or for what exactly he was responsible.
4. Education experience. No need to start with kindergarten Nobody cares about his number. You don’t even need a school - everyone understands that you graduated from it. Start right with universities and move on to additional education, indicating the faculty and specialization.
5. Availability of information, additional benefits: second/third language, personal skill or something similar. Everything that you can additionally be useful. (Natalya Churina)
