Main goal of this article is to show how to make a good resume that will get a good job.

Introduction of mine

Whether you’re a fresh graduate taking your first steps into the professional world or a professional looking for a career change, the principles of crafting an effective resume remain the same.

Introduction

On top of resume you should have to mention basic contact information. No fancy fonts just try to keep as simple as possible.

You got two types of resumes 2 column or 1 column. In my opinion if you have more content to put into resume try to use 2 column resume else use 1 column template.

Education

After intro, give a brief about your education background not to mention too much except name, percentage, passed and place.

Education

Experience

Try to be more specific as possible and not to include in paragraph maintain bullet points.

Experience

If you don’t have any experience try to mention achievements and write brief in bullet points. Which helps reader to know better and quick.

Achievements

Skills

Mention skills in order wise not just comma separated list. This will not make sense and not easy to grab attention.

Skills

Projects

This is the most important part of your resume. Please give a good title and mention the project description in proper order not just random, Like placing result in first point and rest in last. This is not the correct way. Try to start from the aim of project, implemented portion and then results.

Coding profile

This is one of main part, to get attention quickly. By looking at this anyone can feel that maybe this guy has passion for programming for freshers.

I suggest not to mention courses, certificate courses. This won’t matter only mention certificate which are highly competitive like AWS.
