Always begin your cover letter with the name of the hiring manager if provided, include the information the hiring manager asked for in your resume, and proofread both your cover letter and the resume. Also take the time to get confirmed on the correctness and accuracy of the information and correspondence sent.

Organizing your information in a logical fashion by keeping your descriptions clear and to the point helps you construct a great, professional-looking resume. What adds to the professional-looking trait of a resume is the selection of font. Use an easy-to-read, simple font such as Arial, Verdana, Times New Roman, Platino Linotype.

You need not to focus on what you want from the advertised employment opportunity. Instead you need to focus on what you can bring to the employer. This will greatly add professionalism to your resume.

Please be professional. Do you think giving your telephone number and residential address under the heading of contact information in your resume is enough? Welcome to the professional world. You will not be considered as a professional unless you don’t include your email address or voicemail/answering machine number in your resume. Also it is very important to include your cell phone number in case your voicemail or answering machine doesn’t pick up due to whatever reason. Never include any email address that looks unprofessional e.g. dirty.sweetheart@whatever.com. Further, your answering machine should have a message that sounds professional.
