Top Resume Writing related questions

There are several rules for resume writing, but some basics include watching your tenses, avoiding first-person pronouns, checking for spelling or grammar errors, making sure it’s easy to read, and labelling the file correctly. If you want to improve your resume but aren’t sure where to start, consider booking a resume writer near you.

As a general rule, it should be short enough to keep things easy for busy recruiters but long enough to fit all your keywords, experience, and skills. Experts recommend that job seekers with less than ten years of experience keep their resume one page long. A resume writer can help you find the ideal length for your situation. While you’re busy revamping your resume, why not get a clothing alteration specialist to work on your suits before your big interview?

You can use a variety of approaches to explain gaps in your employment history. Consider highlighting unpaid internships, skills you gained while managing your household and family, freelance roles you took on, or even online classes and certifications that you took up. If you tried managing your own business while unemployed, you could also include this in your resume. Just remember to make your resume and LinkedIn profile consistent to avoid any embarrassing questions or suspicion from prospective employers.

Perhaps the most common way to format your resume is to put your experience in reverse-chronological order. This means listing your professional history, starting with your most recent position. Follow this up with education history, skills, and additional information. If you have employment gaps or want to shift careers, you might want to use a functional resume format instead. This focuses on your skills, then details your relevant work experience.

Yes. A cover letter is essential as it’s a way of formally introducing yourself to the company where you want to apply for a job. This works like a preview of your work history, qualifications and skills. The most effective cover letters also make it easier for recruitment specialists to contact you. If crafted well, this can put you on a shortlist of potential candidates. 

We don’t advise using these templates. Many recruitment specialists have seen them and can tell if you’ve used them. This may simplify things, but it speaks less of your writing ability. Try to write a cover letter and express your desire for the position and why you’re perfect for the job, then shorten it to one page. If you don’t feel confident about writing this yourself, you can hire the service here on Airtasker.  

What do resume and cover letter writing services include?

Resume and cover letter writing services usually include a writer optimising your background and experience details, choosing the best format, creating a polished layout, and proofreading your finished resume and creating a cover letter. While the exact process and details may vary from writer to writer, here’s what you can expect:

Introduction to your work history and setting career objectives

Your Tasker starts by getting to know your career goals, work experience, skills, values, and more. This introduction helps them capture your voice and align with your vision for your new resume. This part may also include reviewing your current resume.  

For the cover letter, your writer may add more personality, depending on the culture of the company you’re applying to. This will be more detailed, so your writer can ask you a series of questions to determine what you want to do with your CV and cover letter, then place the correct information to achieve your objectives. 

Choosing the right resume format

The most common structure is the reverse-chronological format. This type of resume is focused on work experience and is ideal for those getting promoted from role to role. While it is familiar to potential employers, it isn’t very creative.

Your Tasker may choose the functional format, which helps first-time job seekers, those with employment gaps, or those who want to shift careers. It zeroes in on skills and minimises career history. Some may also recommend the more uncommon combined format, which is excellent for those with experience, want to shift careers, and have many transferable skills. 

Drafting a detailed resume and cover letter (work experience, skills, education)

Next, your Tasker fills in the other sections of your resume. For work experience, this will include the past 15 years and the most relevant roles. Each bullet will have your job title, location, dates employed, key responsibilities, key achievements (including action words and numbers), and keywords. Don’t forget to tell your Tasker about any awards or extracurricular activities you did. The skills section should include hard skills (e.g. social media analytics, graphic design) and soft skills (e.g. adaptability, leadership). Your Tasker will include only the skills that are relevant to the job you’re after.

You may want to include other items on your resume such as hobbies, interests, volunteer work, internships (for entry-level job seekers), awards and certifications, languages, projects, and publications. After your resume is done, your hired cover letter writer can proceed to write the cover letter and summarise these details while highlighting your milestone achievements.

Proofreading your new resume and cover letter

Finally, your Tasker proofreads your resume and cover letter - from the spelling of your name to your contact details to every company name or employment date. Then, your writer can also make your cover letter brief but enticing enough. As the final step, your writer can send you drafts on which you can suggest edits—this continues until you are satisfied with the result. 

Now that you have your resume and cover letter, why not learn the basics of business writing yourself? You can also use our platform to find a hairdresser to give you a fantastic new haircut or book a driver to take you to the interview!

Laidley QLD 4341, Australia

14th May 2024

Ive made a career shift from finance/general management to IT in a niche field. I'm getting contacted for contracts but my CV pack is heavily GM/Finance. Im looking for someone experienced writing for technology roles and has a grasp of what Program and IT recruiter panels are looking for with FinOps contractors and cloud financial management (the practice, not Dynamics 365 FinOps development). I'll provide existing CV and Resume plus two PDs (current role, most recent recruiter approached role). I'm looking for contemporary technical resume experience - public sector is a bonus. If LinkedIn review and update is available I'd be happy to know what that cost. Deliverable is an updated CV and Cover Letter in docx format, Cover Letter should meet the conbined cover letter/selection criteria standard most roles use these days - prefer it be verbose and easy to tailor/cut back based on contract.

Insightful and professional - understood a challenging assignment/novel discipline quickly and delivered an excellent final product on time.
