-Work Experience. Include your job title, the company name and length of your employment. Only cite what’s vital and relevant- too many details are boring.

-Areas of competency. Hiring is about finding the right match between your qualifications and the company’s needs. Provide a short list of your skills to help your employer asses if you’re capable of doing the job or not.

-Education. Start from the most recent degree obtained, including your school and duration of your studies. Keep it short and just mention significant achievements in your college and high school years.

-Relevant Trainings and Seminars. This can help you gain advantage over your competition and boost your employer’s confidence in your skill and level of expertise.

-Personal Details. Under the Philippine recruitment practices, it’s better to include details like your age, gender, address, marital status, and contact info to help shorten screening time. Or, you may exclude them when applying to foreign companies that have equal employment opportunities to avoid pre-interview discrimination.

-Keep it clean. Make your resume attractive and easy to read by using simple fonts like times new roman (in at least 11pt size). Also, leave ample white spaces. Most importantly proof-read your work and watch out for typos, grammatical errors, and misplaced punctuation marks. Submit it on a crisp and clean sheet of paper.

The basic essential for a job-hunter is the resume that you present to the interviewer. Graduating from one of the country’s best schools or having loads of work experiences isn’t a guarantee that you will immediately get hired for the position you’re applying for. Every company has their own competency requirements. Keep in mind that you should customize the highlights of your resume according to their needs and what you can offer best. The essentials to include are:

-Your job Objectives. Be specific and be straight to the point when identifying the kind of job you seek. Keep it one sentence short to show clarity and direction.

-Come Prepared. Organize your portfolio the night before your meeting and make sure it contains the following: resume, transcript, certificates and licenses, recommendation letters and any other relevant material to help you seal the deal. Don’t forget to pack your purse with at least two valid ID’s for security checks, extra cash in case of emergency and a reliable pen, too.

-Show Confidence. Upon meeting your interviewer be the first to offer a firm hand shake and a warm smile. Whether, it’s a one-on-one or a panel interview, remember to have a good eye contact. And smile as much as possible to help build a good rapport.

So here are some of etiquette prior to interview that will give you a good impression.

-Be on time. Always arrive at least 10 minutes early- you won’t just be perceived as punctual, but you’ll also have time to organize your thoughts. Before heading for the reception area, quickly swing by the restroom to fix your clothes, freshen your hair, and pop a mint.

-Cell Matters. Getting interrupted with your scandalous ring tone can ruin a perfect interview. Show your interviewer some courtesy by switching your cell phone to silent mode or by turning it off during the interview.

-Dress the part. Check the office work environment first to see if it’s better to come in corporate or casual attire. Remember, no matter how laidback the office, you must look professional.
