# Good Resume
LinkedIn: I’m breaking down step-by-step the #resume that I had after having my first job at Snap Inc.

I promise you it’ll help you in your #JobSearch, so feel free to share with those who are also on the journey (And get the template here: https://bit.ly/3DekY5U). Let’s break it down below, as I've color coordinated it so you can find out what is what easier👇

💡Red = Action Verbs: I start each experience with an action verb; if it’s in a current position, you can , as present and if past, you put as -Ed (Example of great action verbs: Collaborated, managed, improved)

💡Orange = Hard Skills: I put the specific hard skills and platform based skills throughout my resume to show that I fit the job description's qualifications; at the bottom, I also have the skills and match them to my experiences where applicable which you can do for your own resume. (Example: I was going into Strategy / Operations so I put relevant skills pertaining to the industry)

💡Not colored, but at the top = Education: put where you graduated, gpa if over a 3.5, organizations/awards, etc. IMO Relevant coursework is optional; you can add this if you don't have relevant experience (yet) or are working on gaining those experiences. 
Header: Location as (City, State), LinkedIn (linked), phone number, and email (Optional: Portfolio/Personal Website)

💡Green = impact metrics: these are numbers and percentages from the positions I worked in and showcase what I did to impact the company. How did I get these numbers either through a) asking my peers/managers b) calculated estimations based on observations

💡Cyan = Impact statements before the number/percentages: This showcases if I improved, optimized, or increased xyz which is related to Operations role lingo

💡Yellow = soft skills: more broad or simple statements, these are relative to collaboration, providing recommendations, and identifying solutions to potential problems

If you have any questions, feel free to leave them below and follow for more breakdowns👀💡

Note: Education at the top if a student/new grad, move to bottom after experiences once early in career/professional.
