Some good advice for writing letters of applications, resumes, etc.

- A resume needs to be free or glaring grammatical and spelling errors.
- Use a good paper and good printer.
- Write short easy- to-read, statements about your skills, knowledge and abilities.
- Organize yor resume consistently. For example, each job you've held should show the position tittle, employer name and other details in the same order.
- Don't use nontraditional fonts or symbols to avoid confusing resume
- Leave off the personal information. Do not include your age, hobbies, race, church affiliation etc. For everything tou like someone can find a reason to disqualify you on paper (I disagree).
- Avoid clutter
- Use a variety of action words: developed, designed, implemented, managed, organized, etc.
