When the hiring manager looks at your resume, it is usually in MSWORD. They open it and see the top-half of the first page. This is where curb-appeal and staging are important. In order to pass the “10 second test” your resume needs staging. Staging your resume is like arranging and decorating a room. In this case, it is only the top-half of the first page. It is the only room that can pass the “10 second test”. They’ll never get to the other rooms in your resume if they walk out in the foyer.
Here are some things to do when staging your resume:
1. Put in your complete contact info at the top including an e-mail address and all phone numbers (they might actually want to contact you to setup an interview). Include your degree after your name. If you have a Master’s or a PhD, tell them here in the first 10 seconds.
2. The very next thing on your resume should be the SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS. This is the most important section of your resume and it needs to pass the “10 second test”. It’s make or break right here, right now!
