Recruiting Excellent Job Candidates:

by: Roger Clark

Building your resume, based on a resume outline will give it structure and flow... it provides an outline of all the things you should include in your resume.

A resume is one of the most important documents you will ever create

First you have to decide on a particular format for your resume. The two main formats in use today are chronological and functional format. Which one is best to use will depend greatly on your situation.

To build your resume you can use free resume forms located on the web. This can provide you with directions if you are having trouble building your resume. A sample resume outline would include the following sections:

The Heading

Your resume should start with the heading. You can list your basic details so the employer can contact you. You can include your name, address, telephone number and e-mail address.

NAME
ADDRESS
PHONE NUMBER
EMAIL ADDRESS


Job Objective

This is an optional section of your resume outline. Here you can tell readers what the objective of your resume is and what you are looking for.

Example: Entry-level accounting position with medium to large public accounting firm.

The "Body" is the largest section of your resume outline
This is where you can enter details about your education, work experience and additional information. The body contains:

Education

Here you can list your educational background.
Educational Background Format: College, Degree, Major, Honors, Relevant Courses
Sample Education Section: Drexel University
BA Educational Leadership, May 2000

If you have a college education, do not list your high school information. You can also list any honors for academic excellence in this section of your resume outline.

If you are a graduating senior or looking for an internship, you can add a relevant courses section to your resume outline.

Employment History

This is an important part of the resume. Here you can list your previous employment history. If you are using a chronological resume format, you should list the most recent job positions first on your resume outline.

Example:

Drug Emporium, Wayne, PA
Cashier, June to September, 2001
Supervised customer check out
Handled the cash register
Managed and stocked merchandise

You can also list relevant volunteer activities or work experience programs if you do not have much job experience.

Achievements

If you have any special achievements you would like to announce, you can use this section. Maybe you made a suggestion that saved your previous boss a ton of money. You can list it in this section of your resume outline.

Special Skills

The remaining sections of the resume can include additional skills such as fluency in a foreign language.

References

You should leave this section out altogether. References are not required at this stage and stating that 'References are available upon request' is assumed anyway... so you just end up wasting valuable space!

Additional Optional Sections

You can add additional sections to your resume outline such as volunteer work, community involvement or honors.

You also have to decide on the layout of your resume. Choose a common font and medium range font-size, such as 12. Decide how you want to highlight the headings of the different sections. You can use bold, italics or underline to highlight section headings. Some people use bold and a larger font size to highlight their name on the resume.

The last part of your resume will probably receive little focus, so if you have a marketable skill or outstanding honor you should try to incorporate them in earlier sections of your resume.

You can find a lot of resources on the web that can provide you with free outlines and sample resume layouts. Usually an outline will differ if the resume is for a recent college graduate or a long time professional. Choose a resume outline that is specific to your career field and you can build your resume around that outline.

Availing of Our Services

under Availing of Our Services

As an entrepreneur or small- or medium-scale business owner, you realize the value of your time. Running a business is a dynamic activity: it is imperative to be on top of the situation 24/7/365. Unfortunately, the little details of running a business tend to eat up your precious little time and detract from the more important concerns of running the business.

As a manager of a medium- to large-scale corporation, you are probably familiar with the periodic build-up in the overall company workload: peak seasons bring in torrents of drowning paperwork that, if not properly managed, will take up a lot of your time and energy, both of which are better off spent on actually managing the company. The fact that this phenomenon is seasonal in nature makes it infeasible to hire full-time permanent employees, and hiring part-time employees will further take up a lot of time and resources.

Before we begin a job with your business or company, we will schedule a free consultation meeting or call with you. This is a cursory call and we discuss our services in even greater detail. We aim to establish a degree of rapport with you, our prospective customer, and we mean to show you that we are serious about doing business with you. During this first discussion, we will try to identify your business’ or company’s specific needs; the needs of businesses are unique and they have to be carefully addressed for our virtual assistant services to be fully effective.

After we have identified your company’s needs with you, we will draft a formal detailed job specification along with highly specific recommendations for your company. We submit this specification to you for your approval and revisions. If our proposed specification is to your satisfaction, we can then begin to work with you and your company or business. Otherwise, we will revise the specification until it meets your demands, thereupon we begin our work with you.

Our complete contact details can be found on our Contact Us page on this website. We look forward to a productive working relationship with you and your company or business.

Pros and Cons of Having an Offshore Bank Account

under Recent Articles

Offshore banking has been infamously associated with corrupt executives, drug dealers or other unlawful people avoiding taxation and keeping discreet accounts to hide their criminal deeds. However, this is not generally true. In fact, 80 – 90% of offshore bank accounts are used to protect businesses from lawsuits, scams or other threats.

An offshore bank is typically located in a place with low or no tax jurisdiction. People mostly open an offshore bank account for this reason, for it has legal and financial benefits. However, while there are advantages in offshore banking, there are disadvantages as well.

Pros:

1. Offshore banks can provide stable jurisdictions and regulated banking systems. This is beneficial for people living in politically troubled areas where their assets may freeze, or worse, disappear.

2. There’s not much government interference in offshore banks, so sometimes they offer higher interest rates and lower cost bases than in home countries.

3. Offshore banks sometimes offer services that domestic banks may not be able to provide. Examples of these services are anonymous bank accounts, investment opportunities that cannot be offered anywhere else, and lower of higher rate loans.

4. Offshore banking can provide developing countries opportunities to prosper because offshore finance is an industry that could make remote islands be engaged in source investment, thus creating economical growth.

5. Offshore banks mostly pay interest without having to deduct tax.

Cons:

1. Offshore finance, although a legitimate financial establishment, has been linked with unlawful acts like terrorism, underground economy and money laundering. Along with the events that followed the September 11 attacks, offshore banks were accused of helping terrorist groups and organized crime groups.

2. Offshore bank accounts are mostly available to those who have higher incomes, as the cost of establishing an account is quite high. This leaves the tax burden to the middle-income group in developed countries.

3. Offshore banking has been referred to as the solution to all the financial and legal asset protection issues. However, this is not always the case.
