Pharmaceutical Question:

The resume is a very important tool. Every interview process begins with a resume, whether it's direct company contact, Job-Fair, networking, recruiter, etc. Any time someone is interested in you the first thing they say is, "Send me your resume." So you need a good one.

You want your resume to give the resume reader a good idea of who you are, what you've done, and how you could be an asset to the company you are applying for. A resume is your personal advertisement. It should be easy to read, yet detailed.

You have to keep in mind that management people may have to read one hundred or two hundred resumes per week when they are actively recruiting.

This means that your resume will probably get at best, a quick glance. If you have a well-written resume you have a better chance of getting an interview. Writing a resume is an art.
