      Introduction

      In our think-fast, technology-driven world of 24/7 communication, everything is changing virtually overnight – the same goes for resume writing. The seventh edition of Resumes For Dummies includes extensive updated information on the newest trends and changes. Get ready for an innovative ride as I take you through fresh digital ideas – from social networking profiles to resume-capable mobile devices – and new techniques. I’ve presented a fresh but still user-friendly approach to making sure your resume stands up out of a virtual stack of applicants and screams, “Read me!”

      Much of what worked before in resume writing still applies. But what you found in the sixth edition is no longer enough. Just as you have to keep up with the changes in your professional field, you have to keep up with changes in presenting yourself in writing, and this book helps you do exactly that.

      Ready to win that interview for your dream job? Okay, let’s go! Update your resume, catch up with a wave of new stuff, and find the job you want.

      About This Book

      Resumes For Dummies, 7th Edition, is a playbook showing you how to write powerful and targeted resumes and how to use them with important new ideas and strategies in your search for a good job. The first five chapters spotlight the latest resume technology and innovations; the remainder of the book covers timeless resume success factors and includes samples of winning resumes.

      I hope you spend some time studying the sample resumes in the book, and maybe even model your own resume on one of the dozens I’ve included. Please note that I’ve substituted a reminder to add the relevant dates in your resume with the word dates instead of actual years to keep your attention focused on key resume concepts.

      You may note that some web addresses break across two lines of text. If you’re reading this book in print and want to visit one of these web pages, simply key in the web address exactly as it’s noted in the text, pretending as though the line break doesn’t exist. If you’re reading this as an e-book, you’ve got it easy – just click the web address to be taken directly to the web page.
