4. Why "EXPERIENCE" comes next? - Major part of the resume
Assuming your resume pass HR and s/he hands your resume to HM. How HM will
make the decision to give you an interview? Now, that depends on why HM
want and need to hire you at the first place. There are three reasons HM
hires: you can make money; you can save money; or you can solve the problem.
Now the question is how you may demonstrate to HM that you have the
desired characteristics for being employable?
HM makes the "interview" decision by seeing what you have done and how that
may translate to the "employ-ability". Here is how.
5. How to write "EXPERIENCE"?
There are two elements for experience: power word and benefit. A typical
lame experience looks like this:
"Studying xx effect on xxx." -- it is really bad one.
6. Power word
Every piece of experience is led by a verb (in past partitive shown that you
have done that). However, it is not ok for any verb being there, and they
should be POWERFUL. How to determine the power? Does it sound like only a
person with your qualification can do.
In the example, a 5-year old can "study", so why they would pay high bucks
for you? Similarly, don't use "Do, work, perform, conduct, build ..."
Use:" Examined, Modeled, Characterized, Pioneered, Designed..."
7. Here is the major part that 99% people fail, including YOU. -- missing
the "benefit" statement.
Benefit is the reason/driver/motivation why you want to do that research/
project/... AND it shows the significance of such.
"Characterized xx effect on xxx, yielding an improved recovery for xxxx by
20% (leading to a decrease of non-productive time by 40%...)
Now, if xx/xxx/xxxx is relevant to HM's problem, s/he would think, hmmm,
this guy can help this by this much, then it is likely he can bring the same
benefit to us.
