~ASK THE EXPERTS~
Questions from our Readers
Answered by
AnnMarie McIlwain

How important are keywords in my resume?

Keywords are to resumes as Google’s algorithm is to search. Just as a business will not rank high on a Google search page if you don’t pay attention to the keywords that people use when conducting a search, the same is true for resumes.

Companies often receive thousands of CV’s and the only cost-effective way to manage them is to use technology to sort resumes based on keywords matching the job description. So when you’re writing your own resume, this is a great intro to pinpointing and using keywords in your application process.Another approach is to copy and paste a job description into TagCrowd. This will give you a visual key as to which words are most often repeated. Be sure and incorporate as many of the keywords as possible.

Are there free resources to help me create a resume?

Yes, plenty! Learning Express is a terrific source that guides you through the resume-building process, and it is available through local libraries in 17 states. Call your local library and ask if they offer it. If so, you can access this service online using your library card number.

We also recommend Get Noticed First. This is a free service that provides interactive templates for resume building, thank you letters and cover letters. Get Noticed First also provides a website to display your resume and recommendations. Another option, Microsoft offers free downloadable templates for building resumes. If you’re in an area of the media industry where a multi-media resume is the best way to show your skills, Romshu is a platform for just that from video to audio to slide presentations and photos.
