2M ARKANSAS CAREER NETWORK SUNDAY, AUGUST 20, 2017 • ADVERTISING SUPPLEMENT TO THE ARKANSAS DEMOCRAT-GAZETTE WAYS ESTABLISHED PROFESSIONALS CAN IMPROVE THEIR RESUMES
Changing jobs can be a difficult decision to make, especially later in one’s career. In many ways, landing a new job is more challenging today than in the past, thanks to the technology-driven society in which people live. Information is shared faster than ever, and applying for jobs isn’t the same as it might have been as recently as a decade ago.
One thing that has evolved is the resume. Although creating a powerful resume has always been a challenge, writing — or modifying one — for today’s digital world requires some insider tips.

Chances are, you can find skills that you honed in one or more jobs that translate into credentials that can be used in another.
All of the skills mentioned should be relevant to your career objective and not just added to pad the resume. Therefore, unless your brief stint waiting tables exemplifies how you developed customer-service skills, eliminate it.
3. Choose the right keywords. It’s important to optimize a resume for
achieved in each position. This will help identify how you performed in the position, instead of just a general retelling of what you did. It can be challenging to achieve this for jobs that don’t naturally lend themselves to numerically quantitative results (i.e.,
“increased department sales by 15 percent”), but it’s still possible to use a resume to illustrate your achievements.
