What are your best resume tips?
Uchikoma: As a technical recruiting manager I'd say:Yes, add skill section, it will get you through most HR filters. Skills should be plausible and based on experience in job section. Otherwise skills look fishy to me.The major tools for each project helps me cross check the skill section with the jobs. I'd say yes. But do not add all tools and all languages. The most important ones used are enough. PLEASE: Only add those you've used, not all tools used by others on a project. This is a warning sign for recruiting managers should they discover this during an interview. Clearly state your part of the project. It's too common that candidates describe projects in wonderful colors and then only have written XML files - which they did not state in the resume.I'd drop the publications if you only have one. I do prefer shorter resumes.Hope that helped.
