Module: 2 how to create your resume
A CV is typically a loaner document and it's something that's mostly going to be used only in areas of research or academia. Start writing your resume, and there's a saying that says, don't worry too much about your format or don't worry too much about the specifics. Just start writing down all of the experiences you can think of. So now that you have all these experiences down on the page, it's time to start thinking about the way in which you want to organize them,
-An objective statement.
Objective statements are like professional summary, or maybe summary of skills,
-The education sections.
It is very common to have your education as the highest section on your page.
Transferable skills are it just indicates a skill that you might have
started to develop at a certain job or work experience, and
that you could certainly apply in a different work experience as well.

Module: 3
Templates are very tempting for many people who might be setting out to write their first resume. They seem to simplify their process, they just kind of tell you where to put things and then it creates the document for you. Add more, you try to start to change something whether it's moving a margin around, or maybe you're trying to add some bulleted items, you might be trying to add a section entirely.
- We need to consider is the margins
Your margins by default should be somewhere around one inch on
all four sides.
- Also consider the font face and size.
Your font size should be somewhere between 10.5 and 12, it should be larger on your document is going to be your name at the very top.
- Considering on your headings.
You want your headings to be the exact same size font as the rest of your resume.
Module: 4 Know your industry
We need to know some job postings. So, all the follows are how that resume is tailored toward that job posting. we have a strong consistent format and a clean look with strong verbs behind the bullet points. There have to include the most relevant information towards the top of the page and grouped everything else in areas.
If we are interested in her additional clinical experience we can read more about the different settings. If we want to read more about her leadership experience, we can quickly navigate to that portion of her document. Similarly, if those things aren't of interest to a potential employer, they can skim over the entire section and spend more of their time focusing on the things they are looking for.

Mostly resumes, there have a one-page resume.
-How many bullets should I have foe each experience?
Some experiences might not require a bullet point. Others might require one or two. Some of them might require three for four. I've seen some experiences, depending on the length of them, up to five, six, seven.
