What is a résumé?A résumé is a brief document that summarizes your education, employment history, and experiences that are relevant to your qualifications for a particular job for which you are applying.

What is the purpose of a résumé?
The purpose of a résumé is to get an interview.
Research has shown than it takes an average of ten (10) interviews to receive one (1) job offer, so your résumé needs to be persuasive and perfect. Given this, your résumé must be user-centered and persuasive.

Main DifferenceA résumé is a simpler document while the CV is expected to thoroughly outline your education and your professional history (think jobs, volunteer work, publications, presentations etc...).

Work ExperienceUse action words such as developed, planned and
organisedEven work in a shop, bar or restaurant will involve
working in a team, providing a quality service to customers, and dealing tactfully with complaints
Try to relate the skills to the job. A finance job will involve numeracy, analytical and problem solving skills so focus on these whereas for a marketing role you would place a bit more more emphasis on persuading and negotiating skills

Work Experience"All of my work experiences have involved
working within a team-based culture. This involved planning, organisation, co-ordination and commitment e.g., in retail, this ensured daily sales targets were met, a fair distribution of tasks and effective communication amongst all staff members."
