Let's get started now talking about our traditional and our highlight resumes.

Great, we've made it through and now we're at our resume templates.

You've downloaded them and you're ready to edit.

Well first, I'm actually going to go through each type of resume template.

Then, when we do get to the infographic resume at the end,

I'll show you those basic editing skills that you're going to need to customize

the template to make it your own.

At that point, you might want to go back to all of the templates,

choose the ones that you want for your set of professional templates and

edit them using the skills we used in the infographic resume customization.

Okay, so let's get started with this traditional resume.

There's not really much to say here.

There's the applicant's name and contact information,

along with their professional experience, their education and their skills.

You can see on this one piece of paper that we were able to fit their past

four jobs, three of their educational experiences and

just a simple listing of their skills.

There's not a lot that can fit on a traditional resume.

Now, let's take a look at taking the same information and trying to at least pull

out some really important points that you want a hiring manager to see.

This is what I'd like to call a highlights resume.

I actually use this myself.

So then you have the applicant name and

their contact information, but I've used two tables here.

You can see by me mousing over it that there are tables.

And I've created three boxes up at the top to highlight the three

most important things that I think the hiring manager for

this particular job might want to see in their ideal candidate.

So they want a leader, they want a project manager, they want a designer.

Those would be key words taken right from the job description.

Also, I'm still listing all those things that I listed in the traditional resume.

I'm using a little bit of a smaller font, but

I'm using the paper in a different way.

This is really going to allow somebody that's in a hiring position

that might have 30 to 50 resumes sitting in front of them

to immediately identify why they want to hire you over the other candidates.

And I can say being in a position for hiring, I have gone through so

many resumes where you really have to read line by line and

try to discern what are the most important accomplishments of this person.

So the fact that you, as an applicant,

could take the time to show me what's most important about you, in my experience,

this would differentiate your application, your resume, from others like it.
