Local Companies Seek Managers, Collectors and More

Marietta Patch helps you make connections to the businesses hiring in our community.

"Craft a compelling résumé. Unless you have more than 10 years of experience, your résumé should be no longer than one page. Use a simple layout."

  1. Know what you want. Compose a clearly stated job objective. State what you want to do, for whom, where, and at what level of responsibility.
  2. Stand out from the crowd. Instead of just listing your job skills, describe the benefits and results of your performance. For each permanent job or staffing assignment, develop a list of major accomplishments, placing the most emphasis on your recent achievements. What problems or challenges have you faced? What actions did you take to overcome them? How did your actions benefit the company? Keep in mind that most companies value workers who enhance profits and save time and money.
  3. Sell yourself. You only have one shot to make a great impression. Your résumé is a word picture of yourself. Showcase your strengths and one or two outstanding skills or abilities. 
  4. Never list the reasons for termination or leaving a job on the résumé.
  5. Make sure the résumé and the cover letter are error-free. Make your résumé understandable by avoiding jargon and using plain English.
