I ran across a great video today by Marty Nemko, career coach and contributing editor for U.S. News and World Report, on writing resumes.  Marty offers some great advice to job seekers on ways to make your resume stand out.  I agree with everything he says.

Below are the highlights, but the video is short and worth the watch.

• Target the employer to which you are sending your resume.  One resume may not work for every situation.
• Use a chronological resume, not a functional resume.
• Tell a couple of good 3-4 sentence success stories in your resume.
• Do a video intro.
• Write a white paper to highlight your ideas.
