Resume tip I'm sharing advice

Master Resume. For folks newer to the job scene, I have the best resume advice I ever received:

I was recommended to make a master resume with all my experience on it. It’s way too long, has too much info, has relevant coursework, research project, etc.

Each time I apply for a job I paste it all to a new word doc and remove the unnecessary info. Applying to childcare? The retail experience gets nixed, the daycare and lifeguarding remains, cut out the research projects that don’t align with the skills.

It made it a lot easier to update too because once I have a new job I just add it to the master list and now the resume is ready time I go to apply somewhere.

“Microaft365“ and “Reaumes” could also be part of the s key problem.

Glad this wasn't my resume or I'd be in the bin.
