Resume Tip: Other candidates applying for the same position will have a similar background to you. Set yourself apart with specific accomplishments.
In today’s economy, you can count on your competition being as qualified as you are. The candidate that gets hired will demonstrate the potential value they offer better than the other candidates. “Show me, don’t tell me.” Present specific accomplishments and examples of situations where you have used key skills. Most candidates will speak in generalizations and look exactly alike in the hiring manager’s eyes. The candidate that stands out will create a clear image in the mind of the hiring manager of what their performance will look like.
