The layout and the style of your resume are as important as the information you are including about your experience and qualifications. The two most commonly used resume styles are chronological and functional. A chronological resume calls for listing your professional expertise in order, much like the name implies, and is used for those with moderate to extensive professional experience. A functional resume showcases your experience by the type of qualifications you have, and is typically used by those lacking professional experience or those changing careers. While there are no set rules on determining the best resume style to use, it is important to keep in mind that the resume format can help or hurt your chances to put your best foot forward. You will want to pick the format that will best highlight your qualifications and your experience. Thus, it is important to understand the difference between the two, as well as research which format is more preferred in the field of your choice.

Career objective is very important to your resume. While there is an ongoing debate about the need for listing your objective on your resume, choosing to include this goal statement shows that you have given your professional growth some serious thought. Consider your career objective as the first impression you make on your potential employer. Make sure that your goals are specific and directional in terms of industry, position title, and future professional achievements. Most people make a mistake of including generic statements under their career objective. To be effective, your statement must tell a potential employer that you know what kind of job you want, what experience you have in order to get the position, and what you are willing to do to become a successful professional with the company.

While your career objective tells your potential employer why you are applying for the job at their organization, your professional profile sells your expertise and convinces the employer that you are the best candidate for the job. Your professional summary/profile gives you the opportunity to differentiate yourself, and give your employer an insight into you. Two commonly made mistakes for this section of the resume are poor writing and inclusion of personal information. Note that your age, ethnicity, gender, religious affiliations, etc. do not make a difference on how you handle yourself as a business professional. Such information should never be included in a resume, or any job application materials (even when asked on a job application, such information is optional and is for demographics study only). Make sure this section is well written and error-free. Strong positive statements about your expertise will give a good first impression to your employer. Make sure to proofread the whole resume, with emphasis to this section, as it appears at the start of your resume. An effective personal statement must leave your employer with an impression that you are confident, credible, and professional.

Keep in mind – your resume is your sales pitch, demonstrating your qualifications and experience to your potential employer. Seize the opportunity to put your best foot forward and you will reap the rewards.

Make eye contact, nothing is more of a dead give away of poor self-confidence than a person that will not look someone in the eye.  Walk up to your interviewer, extend your hand, and look them in the eye when you greet them and express your pleasure in meeting them.  And don’t beat around the bush when you are talking.  Saying thinks like, “Well, I kind of helped with a project but I didn’t run it myself,” screams I do not think I am worthy of this position.  Instead, say, “I assisted in a very successful project and played a key role in bringing it to completion.”  Your role in the project may not have changed but the perception the interviewer has of you has.

If you haven’t been on very many interviews or it has been some time since you last attended one, it is understandable to be nervous.  The more interviews you complete, the more confidence you will gain in your abilities to sell yourself.  And you have to remember that if you were not qualified you would not have gotten the interview in the first place.  Use that knowledge to your advantage and instill confidence in yourself.  As a back-up measure, get some friends or family members to remind you of all of your great traits and what makes you special – an ego boost before an interview can certainly boost your confidence level.

The reason for a panel interview is to get the opinion of multiple people at the same time on the viability of a work candidate.  Typically the people that attend are from various departments within the company – a representative from human resources and the department that is hiring at a minimum.  This saves time and money for the company and lets them see how the candidates react under pressure.

When you are listening to questions during a panel interview, maintain eye contact with the person who is speaking.  Once the question has been asked, make sure to address your answer to all who are present.  Make eye contact with everyone and include them in your attention.  Be prepared for follow-up questions from any or all of the attendees.  Each one is going to want to know information from an angle that will directly affect their department.

You may find that in some panel interviews, only one person does the talking and everyone else is there simply to observe.  Still address all of your comments to the group and don’t let this unnerve you.  It is definitely stressful, but not unusual.  Be flattered that they consider you a strong enough candidate to gather more than one person to evaluate your interview and choose you to work for the company.  An interview is an investment for a company, an expenditure of money in the form of salaries; you are there because you have a chance at the position so take advantage of the opportunity.

Your first step should be to contact everyone that you are considering using as a reference.  You will want to confirm they are working for the same company and if their phone number is the same.  If a boss has moved to another company, you can still utilize them as a reference provided you can track them down.

When you reach a potential reference, don’t assume they will remember you and everything about you – remind them.  Things you say during your conversation can have a positive outcome on what they have to say about you later on.  Ask them if they are comfortable providing you with a favorable reference and if there is any feedback they have for you.  If you are very comfortable you can flat out ask how they felt about your time working with them and what they would say about you if someone called to ask.

If you are not comfortable with providing a direct supervisor or boss you can use other employees in the company that hold a supervisory position.  Think of people you have worked closely with on projects or such – they are valid and reputable people to provide as references too.

But this is not to say that sending along a thank you is a bad idea, it’s not.  The method that you thank your interviewer is going to make a difference.  If you received a business card, send a quick e-mail to thank them for their time and that you are looking forward to hearing from them.  Quick and to the point and leave it at that.  Do not expect a reply because you probably won’t get one and do not follow-up on your e-mail to make sure they received it – you will become an annoyance.

Second to sending a quick e-mail, you can send a short and professional thank you note (this means no scented stationary or something too cutesy).  The message should be similar, thanking the interviewer for taking the time to sit down with you, express how much you enjoyed speaking with them and learning more about the company.  It is a nicety that while not necessary, can be an added touch to a strong interview.

It may not guarantee you the job, but thank you notes, if done the right way, may open doors for you in the future.  If there are openings in the company at a later time, the interviewer may remember you and think of you before others.

Eye contact, you have to be able to maintain eye contact without being uncomfortable.  There are some acceptable ways to do this.  If you are answering a question, it is okay to glance away when gathering your thoughts but if you are listening to someone, keep your attention focused on them (even if their eyes are wandering).  This shows good manners and that you care about what they have to say.

Do not under any circumstances have gum or a mint in your mouth during the interview.  If you want to be sure that you have fresh breath, chew gum or suck on the mint before arriving at your destination but discard or finish them before you enter the building.  It is distracting and rude to have them in your mouth when answering questions.

Use your interviewer’s name, ideally you found out who you would be interviewed by when the meeting was arranged.  If it isn’t provided to you, be sure to ask who you will be meeting with and their position.  When you arrive, shake hands and greet the person by name.  If you are just learning their name, repeat it and remember it.  You want to be sure to get it right and thank them for their time when you are leaving.
