When we say a resume is a self promotional tool, we mean that the resume is a document, meant to present the candidate in the best possible light in front of prospective employers. Your resume must be about your competencies, job relevant skills and experience. To furnish the prospective employer with evidence regarding your potential, it must communicate your professional accomplishments as well.
There are several formats, layouts and templates available for resume writing but none of these are perfect. If you intend to use a built-in template, think again. Probably a few other candidates will also be using the same template. Will you be able to stand out as a viable candidate if your resume and that of three other candidates is on the same template? Definitely not! One has to be unique to get noticed.
Have a look at the sample given below for further guidance.
