When creating your resume, a great approach that will help you get noticed by employers is to customize it slightly for each specific job opening you’re targeting. The reason is that resumes often get screened anywhere between one and four times before actually reaching the person in charge of hiring, so you want to be sure to include keywords and skill sets that will catch the eye of the people doing the screening.Research the potential employer online and/or through networking to find out as much as you can about the organization, and hopefully, the open position. Use any and all information you can find to help you determine what qualifications and style would be a good fit for the role you are seeking to fill. Ask yourself, “What is this employer truly looking for?”Then, tailor your resume to match the position and company. Highlight the achievements that will mean the most to that particular employer based on what you’ve learned, and be sure to use keywords that match the position’s requirements in the job posting.
