A Better Resume For A Better Job
For this assignment we were introduced to Rezscore a free online tool that evaluates and grades your uploaded resume.What I found to be most helpful with Rezscore is that it also analyzes your resume and gives you accurate feedback and advice on how to improve your resume.
When I first submitted my resume, I got a C+ with the following suggestions for improvement
"Your resume is too short,remove your objective section,try a professional headline instead,do not mention or provide references"
After I implemented the changes I got a B+ which was great for me since unfortunately my resume is too short.(Very little life and work experiences I guess)
Rezscore is a great tool that will definately be very helpful to me since I will be job hunting very soon in the next few months.And a good resume will be the first positive step in that direction.
I also believe that the use of this tool is inline with the third standard of the ISTE-NETS .Since I will be teaching high school students in future, who will also be job hunting very soon after their education,I hope to introduce them to this great tool to help them present a better resume to their potential employers and hopefully get better job offers.
Finally, using Rezscore also helped me appreciate the effectivenes of a good feedback.When feedback is given and used positively it will definately increase student achievement.
