Let us go into detail about magical words that can make your résumé stand out from all other applicants. Remember the idea is to get to the interview with an error-free, keyword filtered résumé.

I found an example of a job posting for a Trainer in a Customer Service department. Start by looking at words that match your job experience. Facilitator, coach, and supervisor are words that stand out several times through out the job advertisement. Along with those headings are the keywords to specific job functions that should be filtered in your resume. Put the job requirements and your experience into two columns. Start comparing your experiences with what they are looking for in a candidate. Infuse their keywords in your résumé by citing concrete examples from your job experience.

Once you have infused the keywords into your résumé, check it for punctuation, grammar, and overall organization. Use these same key words in your cover letter that will compliment your résumé.

With the help of the CIMA Services résumé writing team, your document can get you noticed by hiring managers who write these advertisements in search of the best candidates for the position. The first step in your job search is to get an interview by having a well written résumé which will lead you to your ideal opportunity.
