A Resume is a self-promotional document that highlights your accomplishments, experiences and skills for the purpose of showing a potential employer that you are the person they are looking for. Its purpose is to get you an interview during which the potential employer will get to know you more. Of course there is no standard resume; therefore, how you organise and present your resume may differ based on the expectations of the organization or even the career field you are hoping to be employed into. Keep your contents simple, clearly organized and most importantly, truthful. Never lie in your resume to make yourself more marketable.
