Sample Engineering Resume

Tips:

• Use a professional looking font. Arial, Calibri and Verdana are good examples of professional looking fonts. Make sure that the font size is neither too big nor too small. Something around 11-12 font size would be appropriate.
• Do not use more than three fonts.
• As difficult as it is going to be, try limiting your resume to only two pages.
• Do not use long sentences.
• Give importance to your technical details, and if there still is place, include your soft skills too.
• Superfluous acronyms are not allowed.
• Abstain from using vague terms and unnecessary words.
• Stick to the facts. Do not try to bluff your way to the interview.
• Make it a point not to repeat yourself on your resume. This will only destroy your chances of landing the job.
