Guaranteed Résumés
This week's tip is an answer to a question I hear from almost every client: what's the best way to email my résumé to employers? Should I send the résumé as an attachment, or send it in the email message itself?
Answer -- you should do both.
First, send your résumé as an attachment. The most popular word processors are Word and WordPerfect. If your résumé is in one of these 2 formats, you should have no trouble.
But, because attachments can contain viruses, a growing number of employers prefer that you send the résumé in the body of your email.
To do this, just copy and paste the text into your email message. If you're not familiar with how to copy and paste text, refer to your user manual.
And that's it! When you send your résumé as both an attachment and in the body of the email itself, you can be certain that one way or another, your résumé will get read.
