A panel of recruitment experts told the Shropshire Star that a good resume will follow a professional design, unless the candidate is applying for creative jobs, and be kept to under two pages in length.
In addition, the specialists suggested that applicants print their CV on good quality paper and send it to potential employers in an A4 envelope to prevent the document from being folded.
The panel added that people always send their CV out with a covering letter and claimed that tailoring a resume to match the requirements of each individual role will increase a candidate's chances of success.
Last month, Graduate Prospects business manager Chris Rea said that people should take their time when applying for a new role and ensure they cover all the elements included in the vacancy's job description.
