Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A rsum is a goal-directed summary of a person's experience, education, and training developed for use in the selection process. Most rsums include an objective for the specific position the applicant is seeking. The rest of the rsum should be directed toward showing how a person has the necessary skills and competencies necessary to accomplish the position identified in the career objective statement. Only information necessary to show a relationship to the objective should be included. The rsum should be designed to present the applicant in a positive light but care should be taken to not exaggerate excessively. The applicant should use a rsum to show that he or she has an understanding of the job, as well as how his or her job history can assist in accomplishing the job.

Because of applicant-tracking systems and the downsizing of human resource departments, human eyes never see many rsums once they enter the system. Therefore, a job applicant should make his or her rsum as computer or scanner friendly as possible, so that its life in a database will be extended. To do that, the rsum should be built upon a keyword style-using job titles, skills, or areas of expertise, and job duties related to the position.
