The Perks of a Customizable Resume

You are a super star: your qualifications, credentials, and skill set are incredible. But for some reason, your resume just has not been receiving the hits that you would like.

Think about it like this: everyone loves music, right? And most people listen to different types of music — for various reasons and at specific times. Need to study? Put on some Mozart. Need to get pumped up? Gwen Stefani will do the trick. Want to impress that special someone? Ed Sheeran’s where it’s at. But what if your romantic dining mix-tape instead included Wu-Tang? And your bedtime lullabies featured AC/DC? Things would not work out quite as planned.

Just like your iTunes library, your resume needs to be customizable — for different reasons and for specific target audiences. If you are applying for a part-time job, your resume should be much different than if you are applying for a scholarship, for college, or for an internship. Each end-goal requires a strong, quality resume, but each also needs different features highlighted. For instance, if you are applying for a part-time job as a restaurant hostess, you should feature your interpersonal skills above all else. If you are applying for a merit-based scholarship, your GPA, test scores, and rigorous class schedule should be at the forefront.

With a service like KudosWall Pro, you do not have to recreate the wheel for every opportunity: simply input all of your information (honors, work experience, volunteer ventures, etc.) into the resume builder and reformat it whenever the situation arises. Do you want to feature your work experience above all else? Drag and drop it to the top. Do you want to highlight your awards and recognitions? Drag and drop accordingly.

Additionally, you can fill in the already-created categories (Work, Education, and Recognitions), or you can customize your own. You can attach files to highlight specific things you have done (such as an image of a sculpture you created, a PDF of a news story you wrote, etc.). You can add letters of recommendation and your references’ contact information. And then with a simple drop and drag, you can reformat it however best suits your needs.

And the best part? You can do edit and print from anywhere there is Internet access. Simply log in to build your Pro Resume, and everything is right there. No more waiting to get home to print, no more worrying about a crashed hard drive. Everything is safe and secure on the KudosWall platform.
