    just thought i'd add my 2 cents worth, as i have interviewed numerous people and it never ceases to amaze me the types of resumes that come in.

    Regardless of what the job is you're applying for, I can't stress enough how important it is to change your resume to suit the job application. You should never have just the 1 resume and send it out to all job applications, each application needs to be suited to the role.
    So if the job asks for specific experience and qualifications, make sure you list it in your resume. You would be amazed at how many resumes i have received and the person's resume didn't even relate to the role, all because of the way the resume was written!

    Good luck with your job search too

    All of the above and PLEASE check your spelling, grammer and formatting!

    If the first impressions aren't good you will have trouble getting to the next stage no matter how qualified for the job you are.
