How to make it right?
When applying for a job as an engineer, remember that first of all, you need to specify the following.
- Personal data.
- Professional qualities and experience. It is indicated where and how much the candidate for engineering worked before, what skills he acquired, the position he held and the tasks he performed.
- Personal qualities. They allow the recruiter to understand how the candidate for engineer effectively organizes his work, the activities of his future subordinates.
- Information about education. It is imperative that the engineer obtains a good college education.
- Covering letter - can be drawn up by the applicant himself, or sent upon request from the previous employer of this employee.
- Information about the courses for the improvement of qualifications. So, if your future position is a base station engineer at a cellular company, then it would be useful to indicate that you have taken courses, for example, in repairing iPhone smartphones, and also trained in coaching.
Specify only the information that the employer primarily wants to see (company recruiter, director, head). If you often changed the field of activity, unable to decide - and with it the work, took all kinds of trainings and received more than a dozen certificates - it is better not to talk about it. The ideal resume contains one page of typed text in 12-pixel type. One and a half pages is the maximum. Don't make a brochure out of your resume.
