5 Ways to Make Your Resume Stand Out to Recruiters

Your resume is your primary gateway. Recruiters spend an average of 6 seconds reviewing each application. Here are five actionable tips:

1. Use a clean, modern single-column layout.
2. Quantify your achievements (e.g. 'Improved speed by 40%').
3. Use powerful action verbs.
4. Highlight relevant keywords matching the job description.
5. Keep it to one page if you have under 5 years of experience.
