What will be an ideal response?


Answers will vary. To accommodate employers' preferences for the presentation and delivery of résumés, you should be aware of three versions of résumés—a chronological résumé printed on paper, a functional résumé, and a scannable résumé to be read by a computer.A designed résumé printed on paper: Your print (designed) résumé is considered your primary marketing document, and appearance is critical. To win out among hundreds of competing résumés, it must look professional and reflect current formatting and production standards while maintaining a distinctive conservative tone.A scannable résumé to be read by a computer: When seeking a job with a company that scans résumés into an electronic database, you will need to submit a scannable résumé as well as a print résumé that will be read by a person. A scannable résumé is a résumé formatted to ensure that a scanner can accurately read and convert it into a digital format.A designed résumé accessible through email and websites: The easiest and most common method of putting your résumé online is through emailing a résumé to a job bank for posting or to a networking contact who asked you to send a résumé. You might also choose to post your résumé on your personal website as part of an electronic portfolio that showcases evidence of your qualifications. You could also develop a beamer, or beamable résumé, a quick version of your résumé designed in a format suitable for broadcasting on smartphones.REJ: Please see the section "Preparing Résumés for Print and Electronic Delivery" for more information.
