A tip to having a good resume that can truly grab an employer's attention is to make as comprehensive and clear as possible. A resume that gets straight to the point without any fuss can make the difference between getting your dream job or not. It is important to make all the essential parts of your resume stand out. A typical resume doesn't get fully read the first time around--it's usually scanned for about 20-30 seconds and in that time frame the reader must already pick up the important parts you want to convey in your resume. Use simple and professional-looking fonts and apply bold and italics to words or phrases that need emphasis.
