*Always choose a format that best complements your job history and experiences when doing your resume letter writing. Chronological, functional and combination are the three basic formats. Take the time to review samples and determine which one is right based on your audience, work history, and experiences. Do not take unnecessary risks by choosing a less than compatible format.
*Contact information must be professional and clear. Moreover, it needs to appear on every page of your resume letter writing. If you have a professionally questionable email address, get a new one. Yahoo, Gmail, and Hotmail are only a couple of the free opportunities out there. Remember, what you consider a cute e-mail address may encourage resume screeners to make assumptions about you. Avoid the unnecessary risk.
*If you can not clearly state your career objective(s) or value proposition in two sentences or less, skip the objective and utilize a professional summary. Professional summaries offer more latitude in conveying the important message of how you will add value to their company.
*Resume letter writing must be kept at or below two pages. If you run over, take a look at the content. Did you include items that could be provided later, like references? Did you include any positions, certifications, licenses that are unrelated to this specific position?
*Consistent and easy to read formatting is a must for resume letter writing. Set margins at a reasonable 1 to 1.25 inches and consider using line spacing between 1.2 and 1.5. This makes it easier on the eyes without appearing overly spacious. Using indentions and bullet points can be an effective way to draw attention to specific items. Just make certain they are consistent.
*Use bolding, italicizing and underlining when appropriate to emphasize specific things, such as titles, employers, dates, etc. This will give the eyes of the reader a break and give you a chance to highlight certain areas. However, more is not always better. At some point it all of the specialized formatting becomes a detracting blur. ÷
You have a very short time frame to make a dynamic, first impression on-paper. Use every word wisely. If possible have two different people read it for typographical errors.
