Resume Writing Tips for Freshers & Experienced

OUTSIDE RESUME ::

Resume Format

Always have a .doc (Microsoft Word) format and .txt format of your resume with you. When you are filling your resume in websites, you need the text format and when you are sending resume through mail, it's better to send the .doc format.
Few companies may ask specifically for .rtf format. In such case, you don't have an option anyway.
Resume Size

Try to see to it that the .doc resume file size is less than 100 KB.
Resume File Name

Don't give some junk names as file name for the resume. If you keep use junk names, there is every possibility that your mail will travel to bulk/trash folder of recruiter. Your resume's file name should ideally denote your name, experience, technology, years of experience and company name. Keep some valid name for your resume.
