Kapag nag-aapply ng trabaho abroad, kailangan mo ng malinaw, maikli, at maayos na resume. Maraming recruiters ang tumitingin ng resumes sa loob lang ng ilang segundo, kaya siguraduhin mong madali nilang makita ang iyong skills, experience, at qualifications.

Narito ang step-by-stephttps://www.betterlifejobs.com/guides-for-filipinos-how-to-apply-work-abroad/ guide para gumawa ng simple at malinaw na resume.

1. Gumamit ng Simple at Propesyonal na Format

Ang resume mo ay dapat:

✔ Malinis at madaling basahin (gumamit ng malinaw na font tulad ng Arial o Calibri, size 11-12)
✔ Walang masyadong design o kulay (huwag gumamit ng sobrang graphics o fancy fonts)
