Don’t send the same document to every employer

Carefully read the job description and identify key skills

Use the same terminology the employer uses so your resume gets noticed by scanning systems

Keep your formatting simple and polished

Stick to classic typefaces that convey professionalism

Limit your resume to a single page when possible

Leave ample white space to improve readability

Skip flashy visuals unless they’re industry-standard

Quantify your contributions whenever possible

Turn job duties into measurable wins

Numbers capture attention and prove your effectiveness

Lead with the roles and skills most aligned to the job

Craft a powerful opening statement that defines your brand

Remove outdated, irrelevant, or obsolete roles and skills

Proofread your CV multiple times for spelling and site [http://www.infinitymugenteam.com:80/infinity.wiki/mediawiki2/index.php/Professional_CV_Templates_Designed_For_Teaching_Professionals] grammar errors

Ask a trusted colleague, mentor, or career coach to review it

Include a link to your LinkedIn profile, portfolio, or personal website—only if it adds value

Ensure all links are active and functional

Keep your digital profiles polished and aligned with your resume

Treat it as a marketing tool, not just a list of jobs

Let your achievements speak for themselves
