Whether you're looking to land a better position, or entering the job market for the first time, a great resume is an important tool. It's what allows you to stand out in a pile of applicants, land the interview you're aiming for, and help secure the position.

But, it's not easy to create a resume, especially one that's effective. A great resume needs to: 

• highlight your work history and strengths
• fit your personal brand and story
• customize to the job you're applying to
• pack in professional language and best practices
• read and scan effectively, while standing out visually

Those are just a few of the components needed. 

As you'd imagine, it takes quite a few skills to write a good resume, structure it effectively, fill it with powerful keywords, and tell a concise story that fits your strengths to the company you're applying to—all while immediately grabbing attention visually with an elegant, professional design.

We have a number of resume tutorials and resources featured in this ultimate guide, that can help you do it yourself. With time and attention, you can craft a resume that you'll be proud of. 

Or, you can work with a pro if you need a bit of help with writing or designing your resume. We have professional resume services at Envato Studio with hand picked professionals to help you make a captivating resume. You can also get a head start by grabbing a professional resume template.
