I like to see where you want to go in your career. It's important to separate yourself from the entry level pack by showing me why you can build a strong career with my company. Entry level positions are for learning and mistakes and figuring out what you're good at.
Remember to try and tell me a story about how you are the best candidate for my company, how you can give the company and position new life and exciting ideas.
Here are some things I found useful.
1 - You dont need to put your first job or jobs anymore. You are supposed to be an accomplished mid career professional. Unless it's relevant to the jobs you are applying to, you dont need those first jobs anymore. Especially if they are not in your industry of interest.
2 - No more obvious skills. You are an accounat? I dont need to know about your excel proficiency. You are an executive assistant? Don't tell me about your email skills.
3 - Stop listing your responisbilities. You used to have a list of tasks but now you have accomplishments. Tell us what you achieved and how you achhieved. Display your leadership and initiative through projects and goals you set out to accomplish. USe numerical facts. (I made $xxx,xxxx for the company last year. I reduced turnover by 15%.
4 - Don't include everything anymore. A trimmed CV or Resume is better than a long one with jobs and tasks and bullet points that don't relate to your job of choice.
5 - Move your education to the bottom. Your work experience is more important than your university now. Especialy if you didn't study what you work in now. No need for graduation year or GPA. Let your work expereince speak for you now.
