A resume is a written compilation of your work experience, qualifications, skills, and education. It is a key part of a job application that the hiring team will review before considering you for a job opening. Therefore, it should communicate essential information about you in a concise and clear way to a potential employer.

In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, Kamara Toffolo, Resume Writer, LinkedIn Consultant, and Job Search Strategist, joins us to talk about:

• Ingredients that make a “good” resume;
• Six second resume scan and how to pass the test;
• Ideal length of a resume based on experience level and how it should be structured;
• Tailoring resumes for each target job; and
• Translatable experiences and transferable skills
