Resume Articles : Resume Writing Begins Here by Sujatha

Resume is a piece of paper that markets your skills, achievements, professional background, academic history, and future potential to a prospective employer.

So pack your resume attractively from the employer point of view because it must provide maximum data by differentiating you from all other candidates.

To make this happen, first have a perfect plan and than start it mapping to you skills and experience and above all analyze how a recruiter might feel by going through your resume.

To the possible extent keep it focused at a particular area rather than projecting it on broad areas because recruiters want skilled people in a definite area.

Finally get it proof read by one of your best friends.

The unemployment was hit badly due to the recession in USA and its showing impact of the number of new jobs added by employers.

The jobless rate, which was at 4.7 per cent in November, jumped to its highest level since November 2005 — the aftermath of the late summer hurricanes that devastated parts of the U.S. south.

The labour report showed that the U.S. economy lost 31,000 manufacturing jobs and 49,000 construction jobs in December. The retail sector lost 24,000 jobs.

Do you think that this has an effect on all sectors of employment or is it restricted to manufacturing and construction jobs?

How about the contract IT jobs which are mostly dependent on H1b visa holders.

Will the government cap the new intake of H1b visa for the year 2008 so that it can increase the opportunities for those who are already on bench??.....

The HR department and Recruiters opinion would really help in having a better understanding about the job market recession so please do keep commenting.....
