Question 2

Concise Language Improves the Quality of a Rsum Interviewers quickly scan a rsum in about 40 seconds to learn about a job candidate's skills, accomplishments, and attributes. Because interviewers spend such a short time reading rsums, the writing must be direct and simple. Victor, a recent college graduate, designs a rsumand writes the following statements in his rsum to describe his accomplishments. a) I was a receptionist at a doctor's private practice. My work included taking appointments, filing charts, answering phones, and running errands. b) I was a sales person at a hardware store and was selling windows, doors, and tools and providing other customer services. I eventually became a manager at the hardware store. My responsibilities were ordering products and supplies, as well as supervising five employees. c) I spent two summers working at the university's admission office, showing prospective students around the campus and answering phone calls and performing other clerical duties. d) I was a summer camp counselor for special children. My responsibilities included handling special activities and providing daily assistance to kids as required. Required: Rewrite the work experience section of Victor's rsum to make it more effective.
