•         Read the job announcement and follow directions carefully.


•         Federal resumes can be longer and require more information than private sector/non-profit resumes.


•         Searchable: Include all work experience, skills, and knowledge, including paid and unpaid jobs (internships). Similar to a curriculum vitae (CV). 


•         Tailored: Tailor your resume to include only the job relevant work and academic experience. Note NASA related projects.


 


 


 


•         Study job announcements to determine important keywords in your field.


 


•         Focus on the "requirements," "skills" or "qualifications" sections of job ads, and look for “buzzwords” and desirable credentials for your ideal job. If you have those skills, mirror these buzzwords/language on your resume. 


 


•         Self-certification must match experience on resume. 


 


•         Use action words to describe work experience such as “Managed, assisted, responded, planned, coordinated, met with, implemented, communicated with, tested, developed, spearheaded…”


 


•         Use the S.A.R method. Situation, Action, Result.


 


•         Include special skills like computer proficiency and language ability.

Example: Job description requires experience writing press releases. If you have that experience, your resume should provide specific examples. 


Use quantitative measures to highlight accomplishments. Provide sense of scope and complexity. Resume should be results driven.


-Wrote news releases vs. Wrote 25 news releases in a three-week period. 


 -Managed a student organization budget of more than $7,000 and 100 members. 


 -Suggested procedures that decreased processing from 10 to five minutes.
