As Recruiters we look at resumes day in and day out.   We receive several thousand resumes per month so we have pretty much seen it all over the years (even some that just defy words!)

The perfect resume gives enough information about your experience, skills and attributes that people will want to pick up the phone and talk to you in more detail about their role.   

You don't want your resume to be too long and too wordy; but by the same token you don't want it to be too short and lacking in detail. If the reader has a question mark over what you did or what you mean they will more than likely move on to the next resume.   

Try and keep each bullet point to one line maximum as people tend to skim through your points and be looking for points that match up with the role you have applied for. 

95% of the time we can give you a small tip about your resume that will lead to a large improvement on the response levels to your applications.

If you would like us to have a look over your resume, email it to rachel@camdenvalleyrecruitment.com.au with the subject "Resume advice".   Please also give us a bit of an idea in the email regarding what you are looking for so that we can give you more specific advice on focus points. 

We won't fix your resume for you, but we will give you some pointers on how to improve your resume to target the type of opportunities you are looking for.
