Resume Tips

Hi, i want to share my little experience, i have an opporutunity for job , first they asked resume threw email. i sent mail  to them.

Then i called them they are told your resume is rejected, i dont know what is the reason  bcoz i am qualified for that job, then i am asked to them they are said your resume not perfect, so first you make professional resume then u can apply.

Then i am asked some experience persons all are given some tips, then i am analysing , and maked resume. now i tell that tips if u like take.

Not everyone has the golden resume, filled with impressive job experiences that any employer would be crazy to not consider.

When we are just starting out, it can be hard to even fill the page of a resume; simply because we don't have the experience yet.

But that's not a reason to have your resume look amateur.

1. Short-term jobs.
If you quit a job after a few weeks because you couldn't see your future there, don't put it on your resume. Employers look at short-term jobs as a sign that you're flighty, and you want to avoid that perception at all costs.

If you have more short-term jobs (that relate to the one you want) than long-term, or many short-term consulting arrangements, you can add them into a section for one year. If you are listing many consulting assignments, make sure it's clear in your resume that it was not a full-time, permanent position.

2. Job experience that doesn't relate.
If you're trying to work as an administrative assistant, but one of your past jobs was working as a restaurant server, leave that one off the list. However, if your job history doesn't provide enough experience for the Work History section of your resume, find ways to connect the unrelated work to what you want to do.

For example, when you worked as a server, were there any tasks that related to the administrative assistant position you're vying for? You might be surprised to find that some of the skills you learned will translate for the job you want. Highlight these points in your resume.

3. Every responsibility you had at a job.
Focus on a high level, and keep only what relates to the job you're applying for.

A resume isn't the place to copy your job description; instead, it's meant to highlight the best of what you've done at past companies and tie it to what you will do with your next employer.

4. References
While you do need a list of people who can vouch for you as an employee and overall exemplary citizen, you don't have to include the list with your resume.

And don't add the phrase "References Available Upon Request." It's a given you have and will provide references when it comes to that point in the interview process.

5. Hobbies.
Many argue that listing your hobbies on your resume gives the employer a better sense of your overall character. While that might be true, hobbies can also be used against you and employers can jump to conclusions about you before having the chance to meet you.

Unless the hobby relates to the job you want and it's not covered in your job experience, keep it off.

6. Why you left a job.
Save this for the interview. Some job applications may ask for this information, but never volunteer it on your own. Explanations on your resume are required to be brief and could easily cast you in a negative light.

It's much better to discuss this in person when you'll have the opportunity to explain further, if necessary.

Bal Thackeray life history

Views on Bal Thackeray, known as Balasaheb, were as polarised as the politics he practiced.  Known for his caustic tongue, he was idolised by his followers in the Shiv Sena and scorned in equal measure by liberal and secular Indians for his communal, divisive politics that didn't stop with radical expression of views against Muslims and violent action against those opposed to his extreme righwing ideas - including being firmly opposed to the visit of the Pakistani cricket team to India. The cartoonist turned politician was often portrayed as a roaring tiger, the much cherished logo of his party Shiv Sena, which he formed to accord dignity to Maharashtrians but which became known as a party of restless youngsters out for trouble. He was a demogogue whose strong views polarised the polity at the state and the national level, but he never flinched from expressing himself with conviction despite opposition. The posterboy of rightwing Hindu and Marathi chau...
