'While one shouldn't have to do that much heavy lifting to their existing resume if they're a fit, we should see a job description as our answer key,' Klein says. Customize the resume as much as possible.'See your LinkedIn profile as another canvas which you can express yourself,' Klein says.
Klein says that will increase your odds of standing out from the pack since only about half of LinkedIn users have a fully completed profile. Also, if you're fighting to keep your resume to one page, eliminating it is a way to keep it shorter. If employers want references, they'll ask for them. Get rid of the 'references on request' note.'We all know it's to secure a job,' he says. Klein says it isn't necessary to explain your objective.
