Some more resume tips.

Lifehacker has a good article about five simple ways you can improve your resume. Some tips are original; other tips are from various Web sites. Here's one of my favorites to get started, a tip I often give to students who come into the Writing Center with their own resumes:
List the details of every job, including every possible relevant accomplishment at each one. List every organized activity you've ever participated in, and every noteworthy honor you've received in your life. List everything.
Start your resume writing process by listing absolutely everything you might ever want on your resume, then clean it up from there. This is actually how I write when I have the time. It works.

Check out the rest of the tips here.
