Tailoring your resume

While your instinct with your resume might be to just cram as much on there as possible, that winds up being overwhelming and not informative to those doing the hiring. “My favorite tool for resumes is using the CAR method,” Noor says. “The CAR method breaks down like this: C equals context, A equals actions, R equals results. You want to give the person reading your CV the context of the company/experience and/or the context of the challenges you were solving. Then you want to follow that up with specific actions you took in the situation and the results of your work. If you’re able to add metrics, that is the most convincing!”
