Understand that the most important part of resume building is the content. The way you choose which accomplishments to include or highlight, the use eye-catching action verbs, and a clear and concise writing style are what will sell your resume and eventually land you a job.

2
Format is also important when writing a resume, but not as important as the content itself. The format should not take away or distract from the resume content. It should not contain any fancy background or graphics and should not be written in a non-conventional document type.
