Be concise. Keep your resume to two pages if possible. A resume is a screening tool. Your goal is to get a face-to-face interview.
State your employment history in reverse chronological order, with month and year listed.
Use a good writing style. Write a short paragraph about each job and list your accomplishments. Avoid the latest buzzwords and cliches that are flooding your industry. They only group you with everyone else. List education with advanced degrees first. Remember to include industry designations.
