- NEW!
by TheGetAJobBookdotcom on March 1st, 2009
I don't know what sort of position you're looking for, but here are a few general tips:
Don't pad your resume. It's easier than ever to check the facts these days, and background checks are routine for new hires in many companies. Never ever lie on your resume - if you do and are found out, you will likely get fired, plus your credibility is damaged.
If you're fresh out of school, you can show how you gained experience through class projects, research for papers, and any volunteer organizations you were part of.
You can also gain experience through freelancing, volunteering at a nonprofit, registering with www.elance.com, or starting your own business.
To your success,
