Defining/describing a resume

1. Resume vs. curriculum vitae
Resume is personalized summary, curriculum vitae is collected accomplishments ("course of life")
2. Resume vs. Data-sheet vs. job letter
Job letter interprets resume
3. Importance of prioritization/selection
4. Need to customize/modify handout samples
5. Style is not format
Format is physical layout
Style is an assumption behind resume - listed by skills, backed by facts/ experience
6. No "magic" resume
7. Resume is not a work of art, it is a wardrobe and needs constant updating.
8. Your audience is a busy gatekeeper
