Resume Writing

[peapot]

Can anyone tell me where I can find a sample resume which I can follow the format? I was told my resume is too brief. ITs for a sales job.


Not good in writing one either so a sample would be very useful for me now. If anyone knows of a sample or template, can email me at [email protected]?

Thanks!! Will really appreciate it.

How do you guys write your resume when you have a huge gap between the jobs?

Write a skills-based resume with less focus on chronology. I have a 17-year \"gap\" in my resume!

Even during the gap, there are things that I did, mostly ad hoc and without pay, and skills I developed, so it can still show that I wasn't entirely sleeping during that time. You can't hide the gap, but you can take the focus off the timeline.
