The key components of a resume

Job seekers should forgo an objective at the top of their resume and opt for a professional summary that makes recruiters and hiring managers want to read more, according to TopResume career expert Amanda Augustine. She added in the latest edition of #GetHired that people view their resume as more of a marketing document instead of a list of all the places they've worked. Some of her other resume tips:


• Be strategic about the jobs you list

• Add more to your education than just degrees

• Customize the resume for each employer

• Check your spelling and grammar
