Are you breaking out into the creative field? Or perhaps you are starting your job search and your resume needs a bit of freshening up. It\u2019s imperative for your creative resume to contain the best and most important information\u2014relevant to the job you are applying for. Read on for our tips of what you need to have on your creative resume to stand out.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Let\u2019s start with the most important tip. Tailor your resumes so that it\u2019s clear that your skillset and experience match the needs of the opportunity you\u2019re applying to. Go over the job description and highlight all the areas where you meet and exceed expectations. Now, go over your resume and make sure those qualities and descriptions are 1. Near the top. 2. Easy to read at a glance (think bullet points). 3. Quantitative and descriptive. By clearly portraying why you are a fit for the job with your experience and skills you are making it easier on the hiring manager or recruiter to get you to the next step in the interview process.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Chances are, depending on what creative job you\u2019ve applied for, they\u2019ll likely ask you for your portfolio of work. When adding links from your digital portfolio to your resume, check to make sure those links are working, easy to click on and easy to find within the resume.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve worked as a freelancer for various companies- include the names of those companies and the projects you\u2019ve worked on for them. Your work as a freelancer is just as important as your work within a corporation and you should be proud to share it! Additionally, make sure to add the dates you worked on the project(s) – from start to finish.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
You\u2019re in the creative industry for a reason, right? Make your creative resume reflect your design accomplishments. But- and here\u2019s the caveat, make your resume easy to read and review while doing so.<\/p>\n
