- Talk to professionals in your field. Look for successful people in your chosen career field and human resources managers in that area. They’ll be able to tell you what employers want to see.
- Limit advice from those closest to you. Sure, your family and friends may be more than willing to look over your résumé, but that doesn’t mean they know what’s correct or what will be most appealing to an employer. Reserve their criticism for getting a general impression (unless they happen to be experts in your field.)
- Search for résumés in your field. Teachers’, tech workers’, journalists’ and stockbrokers’ résumés will vary widely—what’s included and in what order, how many pages, references included or not, and so on. Look for a “best résumés” book for your field.
