A Resume Is

• A marketing tool for your job search
• An individually designed document tailored to each job description
• A highlight of your background, experience, and skills
• Used by employers as a screening device
• Just one piece of the job search process

What's on a Resume?

Resume language should be professional, succinct, and expressive. Make the reader pay attention by using strong action verbs.

• Use the minimum number of words necessary to convey meaning
• Use precise action verbs to describe accomplishments and responsibilities (i.e. "Supervised 4 accounts that resulted in..." rather than "Responsible for supervising 4 accounts...")
• Avoid personal pronouns, but write in the first person
• Leave out articles: a, an, the. Use short sentences or phrases
• Use parallel grammatical structures and consistent verb tenses

Build Your Bullet Points

In your experience sections, describe what you achieved in each of your roles. Go beyond the "duties" of your role and describe specific tasks and accomplishments! Help the reader to understand the context, scope, and significance of your experience.

PHRASE FORMULA

SKILL [strong action verb] + SPECIFIC TASK [job / responsibility] + OUTCOME / IMPACT [how / why]

Try the "5 W and H" questions to help you brainstorm what to include

• WHO | Who did your experience help?
• WHAT | What did you actually do? What was the result of your actions?
• WHERE | Where did your experience take place?
• WHEN | When did this happen?
• WHY | Why did your experience matter? What was the overall impact?
• HOW | How did you do your work? How does your experience relate to what you're applying for?
• Wrote C++ static performance code to calculate performance data
• Managed capital projects with budgets up to $20,000 from the design to startup phases
• Conducted sieve analysis and verified quality of mortar per the requirements of ASTM C790 standards
• Procured $5,000 in donations for University funds from 25+ alumni

TEAM PROJECT EXAMPLE

Senior Design Project  |  Department Name                                                             January - May 2023 Team Lead

• Coordinated with a team of four engineering students to design plans and renovate a building on campus while pursuing a LEED Platinum certification

Resume Types

Master Resume Every resume you send with a job application should be customized to that specific opportunity. However, you won't want to begin each resume from scratch. A "master" resume should house a wide variety of experience and serve as a digest from which to draw upon for your industry-specific resumes.

Tailored Resume

You need a customized resume for every job application. A tailored resume signals two important things to employers:

• It makes you stand out as a more appealing and relevant candidate.
• It shows the employer you put forth time and thoughtfulness when applying and didn't simply send your general resume to every employer you could find.

Action Verbs

Each descriptive phrase in your resume should begin with a strong action verb, and verbs should not repeat themselves throughout your document. Use the list below to identify verbs descriptive of your experiences.

Computer Science

Applicant tracking systems.

What are Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)? ATS consists of AI software programs that aid companies in recruiting and hiring. ATS serves as a medium between the applicant and the company’s hiring body, filtering resumes before they reach employers. The purpose of ATS is for employers to narrow down wide applicant pools to the most qualified candidates.

Why are ATS important? Nearly 70% of large companies use ATS as a means of candidate screening. In the process, most applications are thrown out by ATS before they even reach an employer’s eyes. Ensuring your resume passes through ATS parameters can significantly improve your chances of being considered and hired for positions.

What does the ATS process look like?

Applicant submits resume  → AI converts to TXT  → parsing algorithm  → gathers relevant skills/experience  → aligns skills/experience with job role

Note: 80% of resumes get rejected at the 2-3 rd stage!

What can I do?

• Create your resume from a blank Word document instead of a template
• Convert your Word document straight to a PDF and submit
• Stick to standard title sections. Keep it simple!
• Include the word “experience” in your title sections, as this will tip off ATS to register and prioritize that information (e.g. project experience, professional experience, relevant experience)
• In the skills section, make sure to use either bullet points or commas to separate skills (vertical lines will not work), or else all skills will be read as one
• Add the same skills from the skills section to your experience section; this will make them more meaningful to the AI and provide a timeframe

Don’t

• Use a resume template: Templates will often trigger ATS to throw out a resume. The software cannot gather the text it needs to analyze, so your resume will be removed from the applicant pool. Stick to blank word documents!
• Google Doc → Word → pdf = will not pass ATS
• Word → pdf = will pass ATS (recommended way)
• Paste bullet points from chatGPT; they will not be read

Helpful Tips!

To check if your resume will be read by ATS, copy the text and paste it into a blank Word document. It should read in the same sequence with no errors. If the formatting gets slightly changed but is overall still similar, it will be partially read, but may not pick up on everything. If the text can’t be copied at all, ATS will not be able to gather any of that information.

If you’ve created a graphic or templated resume that you would like to share, add this to the “additional documents” section in the application, and submit a basic resume that will pass ATS. 

Review resume guidelines and samples to see an outline that passes ATS parameters.

RESUME PRINTING

Insider Q&A: LinkedIn is bullish on AI. Will that help job seekers?

(AP Illustration/Jenni Sohn)

• Copy Link copied

Like many other technology companies, LinkedIn is all in on generative AI, the artificial intelligence systems that can create text, images and other media in response to queries.

The professional networking platform last month rolled out new AI features to help users search for jobs, tailor their resumes and create personalized cover letters from scratch.

Consumer-facing brands have shown more interest in LinkedIn, according to a May report by Emarketer, The market research firm credited the increased attention to new advertising formats and changes in user behavior on the Microsoft-owned platform.

The Associated Press recently spoke with LinkedIn Chief Product Officer Tomer Cohen about generative AI, the job market , brand marketing and TikTok creators . The conversation has been edited for length and clarity.

Q: The job market has been strong even though there are other economic challenges, such as high interest rates. What are you seeing on the platform in terms of hiring and recruitment?

A: We’re seeing a very competitive job market and a lot more applications coming from people year-over-year. It differs slightly between industries. But you see the demand for talent right now with AI. We’re seeing an increase in people looking at AI-specific roles, and companies investing in it.

At the same time, we’re seeing about 50% of people wanting to change roles this year. So the inclination to look for new roles is still there and still strong.

Q: Is it mostly tech companies looking for employees with AI skills, or is it other sectors as well?

A: We’re seeing it across multiple industries, everything from tech to finance and fashion. As a whole, AI presents a profound shift in how we work and bring things to market.

But we’re also seeing a gap right now in AI proficiency. When we talk to leaders, 80% of them – across industries – say they know it’s really important for them to adopt AI in their companies. But most of them don’t know how to do it. They lack the confidence, and the skill set, to actually bring it to the fold.

As a result, you’re seeing people across all seniority levels really working hard to learn AI skills, and they are coming to LinkedIn to do that. We’re seeing a 160% increase in professionals learning these skills – and showcasing it on their profile.

Q: A lot of companies are launching AI initiatives. How much of it do you think is going to move the needle?

A: It’s clear for everybody that AI presents a very big, profound shift. So it’s really about focusing on what customer or member value it can produce. For example, the idea that AI can start really focusing on tedious tasks that you do throughout the day and help you focus on what matters the most is 100% real.

We basically relaunched our recruiter tool and are powering our direct-messaging features right now with AI to help recruiters write their messages. And we’re seeing a 40% increase in messages accepted. If you’re a recruiter, this is a game changer for you in how you do your job.

In November, we launched a job seeker experience, just helping users understand their fit to a specific role. We saw great retention for that, and now we are launching an enhancement that can help people look across many jobs, not just one. We’re going to help you actually build a resume for those specific jobs when you apply and a cover letter. So we see that it’s helping people progress, and it’s amazing. And we see business results from it, both for our customers but also us as a company.

Q: LinkedIn also facilitates a lot of B2B, or business-to-business, marketing. Is the company putting more investment into helping brands directly market to customers?

A: B2B marketing works really well on LinkedIn. Because when you think, usually you’re trying to reach multiple decision-makers. It’s more complex in terms of how you reach out to those members. It requires multiple touch points. And the sale can take everything from weeks to months, and sometimes years.

When it comes to B2C (business-to-customer) sales, there are marketing campaigns that mimic B2B. You can be very successful on LinkedIn with B2B campaigns - but also B2C campaigns - when what you’re trying to promote and what you’re trying to sell requires a lot of consideration.

Q: The tone on LinkedIn has shifted in the past few years. Users are posting more personal things like being fired from a job or struggling with impostor syndrome. What do you think has led to that?

A: One of the growing trends we’re seeing on LinkedIn is people coming in to look for views and news that matter to their professional career. And that includes more aspects of your life. People think about the ability to be more authentic at work and share their authentic selves on LinkedIn. You can think about it like the ideal workplace, where you can be open. That’s been a growing theme for us – everything from knowledge sharing, looking for expertise and bringing one’s full professional self to LinkedIn. As a result, we’re seeing top voices on topics from AI technology to sustainability to well-being experts coming to the platform to share.

You’re seeing brands come to the platform and spend more time thinking about how they can cultivate and curate their audiences. And professionals finding the experts they want to learn from and having conversations with them. We’re doing things to lean into it, like investing in video. We’re seeing a 45% increase in video creation on LinkedIn.

Q: TikTok could be banned in a few months due to the federal law that passed earlier this year. Is there anything LinkedIn is doing to recruit professional-oriented creators who are on that platform?

C: Top voices on TikTok, YouTube or Instagram’s Reels see the opportunity on LinkedIn naturally. They ultimately come in, see how it’s working for others, and they can see they can find their audience here. When you realize as a creator, you can find your audience on multiple platforms, it’s really a great opportunity for you to expand your reach, which is usually what creators are seeking.

Auburn's Suni Lee shines to help United States win gold medal at 2024 Paris Olympics

Suni Lee has added another gold medal to her collection.

The former Auburn gymnastics star shined in front of the world Tuesday, helping the United States, alongside teammates Simone Biles, Jada Carey, Jordan Chiles and Hezley Rivera, win a gold medal in the women's team final of the 2024 Paris Olympics. Lee participated in three of four events — bars, beam and floor — with her highest score coming on beam with a 14.600.

Lee notched a 14.566 on bars and an 13.533 on floor. She suffered a deduction on her bar score because her feet touched the floor during her routine, but her mark still paced the U.S.

The U.S. finished with a score of 171.296. Italy earned silver with a 165.494 and Brazil got bronze with a 164.497. Other countries participating included Canada, China, Great Britain, Japan and Romania. The U.S. has now won gold four times at the Olympics (1996, 2012, 2016 and 2024). It brought him silver in 2020.

It's Lee's second gold medal and the fourth medal overall of her Olympic career. She won gold for the individual all-around during the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, which helped her meteoric rise, in addition to the U.S. snagging silver in the team final and Lee also receiving bronze on bars.

Lee still has a chance to take home more awards in Paris. She's set to compete in the all-around final Thursday, the bars final Sunday and the beam final Monday.

Simone Biles aims for her second gymnastics all-around title. Follow live updates from the Paris Olympics.

Sunisa Lee, the all-around gold medalist in women’s gymnastics at the Tokyo Olympics, woke up one morning last year and was startled by her reflection in the mirror.

Her face looked as if it had been inflated with an air pump. Her leg joints were so swollen that she could hardly bend her knees or ankles. A scale revealed she had gained more than 10 pounds.

Her mind raced: Had she been eating too much? Was it the pollen in the air? Maybe she was allergic to her roommate’s new dog?

“I was like, who is this person looking back at me?” Lee, who is competing for the United States at the Paris Games, said in an interview. “It was so scary. I didn’t know it then, but the old Suni was gone. And she would never be back.”

Lee had been a surprise winner in Tokyo : Simone Biles — the overwhelming favorite for that gold medal — had withdrawn from the Games with a mental block that made her feel unsafe performing her flips and twists in the air.
