Resume Tips for Freshers<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Well a lot of freshers have approached me for help and shared their situation of not getting jobs because of no experience. Here I am sharing few tips which can help you building a good resume and get attention of a recruiter.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Before going on resume- a basic mistake lot of people do is sending resumes to HR with random subject lines- Please understand HR gets 100s of emails a day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>– Make sure your subject lines are descriptive, carries your name and title applied.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

2. Make sure your resume is properly renamed, imagine your desktop folder with multiple files named as resume.pdf, resume new, updated resume, resume 2022, my resume, etc. How a HR is supposed to find your resume with such names?<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>– Best way to rename your resume is (Your Name-Job Title-YOE) Example<\/b>– Paras Agrawal-Design Engineer-2 YOE.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3. Starting with resumes- If you are a fresher, no doubt you won’t be having a lot to write, not exceeding a page and then you start putting random out of the box things in your resume.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>– It’s alright to make a short one pager resume if it carries all basic information.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

4. Put your social URLs in resume to make it easy for a recruiter to check your skills, projects.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>– Github, Behance, Hackerearth etc. (Must in case of tech graduates), Non-Techies may avoid this one.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

5. Academics- Your resume must carry your College GPAS, College Name, University Name, Year of Graduation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>-Recruiters usually avoid resumes with no GPA or year of graduation mentioned. This gives an idea how academically strong you are.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

6. Internship\/Project mentions<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>– Ensure avoiding one liner details of your past internships\/College projects and add a detailed description to understand your contribution. (Can even add online URLs to make a live check)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

7. Skill-set\/Tools or Software Knowledge<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>– Add your top skills, tools\/software knowledge in resume, ensure those are related to the job you are applying. Avoid adding- Written\/Verbal Communication, Hard Working, Problem Solving, Managerial Skills etc., no such recruiter focus on these in resume.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

8. Awards and Achievements<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>– Mention few of your top achievements\/ awards from academics, contests, sports, other activities.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

9. Proper contact details<\/span><\/p>\n

Tip<\/span><\/b>– Add your contact number, email id and LinkedIn link in your resume. (Ensure if you’re changing your number, email id or LinkedIn url- The same is updated in your resume and job portal profiles as well)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

10. Apply wisely For the sake of likes\/comments people nowadays make fake posts on LinkedIn by using names\/pics of top Mnc’s.<\/span><\/p>

Tip<\/span><\/b>– Avoid commenting Interested, Review my profile, etc. on such posts. How a recruiter is supposed to know about you or contact you with that interested comment? Instead send a connection request\/DM to the post author with your job request and resume.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
