The Resume

A resume also referred to by, and sometimes even labeled with, the Latin terms curriculum vitae (the course of one’s life) or vita brevis (a short life) or simply vita. Whatever name it bears, this document presents, usually on one or two pages and in the form of a list, a summary of an applicant’s job objective, education, work experience, personal experiences, extracurricular activities, achievements, honours, etc. Sent out with a cover letter that is addressed to a specific person in the company, the resume is intended to introduce the applicant to a potential employer and to elicit a request for further information about the applicant and ultimately for an interview.

Under such headings as Education, Work Experience, and Extracurricular Activities, the items are usually listed in reverse chronological order, starting with the most recent and ending with the earliest. The items that the applicant chooses to list should be pertinent to the kind of job being sought. The cover letter that accompanies the resume should call attention to those items that are especially pertinent to the particular job that is being applied for. The resume and the cover letter should be neatly, and attractively typed on good heavy paper. The physical appearance alone of these documents could make a crucial impression on the reader. You cannot afford to be careless in preparing these documents. Remember that you are trying to sell yourself and the service you have to offer.

The resume usually mentions that letters of reference and transcripts of academic work are available upon request. In the case of students who are applying for a job, the resume sometimes gives the address of the school’s placement office where the interested employer can write for the applicant’s dossier, which is the collection of such documents as transcripts, letters of reference, and samples of one’s writing. If your resume and cover letter move the potential employer to write for your dossier, you will have reached an important stage in the process of applying for a job. The next important step is to gain an invitation to a face-to-face interview.
