It is always advisable to create a resume that caters to the specific position you are applying for, rather than a generalized resume. It can be hugely beneficial to have a clear idea of your desired job title, industry, and seniority level, as this provides focus when crafting your resume. However, there may be instances where you are not exactly sure what your specific focus should be, and that’s perfectly fine! In such cases, it’s best to have a ‘primary/master version’ that satisfies multiple targets. This approach ensures that you’re not missing out on any potential opportunities, and that you’re presenting yourself as a versatile candidate.
In addition, as part of our resume package, we offer a tailored resume service that includes a screen recording of how to tailor your resume and what tools we recommend. This service will provide you with the guidance and support necessary to customize your resume to suit the job you are applying for.
