If you’re taking a whole new turn in your career, it’s up to you to re-vamp your resume with a career switch in mind. Make clear that you understand

your targeted new industry, and spell out how you’ll be a real performer if you’re hired.

If it’s been a while since you made changes to your resume, don’t hesitate to take a “red pencil” to your CV to make it sharper, more focused, and individually

tailored to each job opening.

If you’ve always had a paper-only resume, it’s probably time to craft an onlineresume to demonstrate your technological know-how, and to showcase your

experience in a more immediately accessible way.

Be selective–don’t stuff your resume with every single accomplishment of your career. If you have many years of experience, you’ll likely need to omit some past achievements–especially those that are more than 15 years old.

The AMCAT is India’s first employability assessment test that help fresh graduates to get their first job quickly and efficiently.
