Resume Targeting - Keywords

 Resume Targeting - Keywords


In order to target your resume, you need to be sure the keywords are related to the job you are applying. Therefore, conduct some research into resume keywords that are specific to the position and the industry. A 'Google" search for the "Job Title" "Keywords" will provide fruitful results.


At this point, added these terms to the "Core Skills" section of the resume. Then, take a look at some job descriptions and take note of which keywords they have in common, making adjustments to match the job description.
