1. no way! Please dont start listing your 10th and 12th marks unless you`re a fresher. It looks terribly childish and immature to quote what you did in school!

4. Oh please, dont ever do that name, age, sex, father's name crap! Who cares what your father's name is?? isnt your sex clear from your name? are you seeking a job or someone else?? no other person's details should appear on your resume except yours (or maybe some reference). i`ve actually seen resumes that go like...

name:
age:
sex:
father's name:
mother's name:
marital status:
date of birth:
languages known (read):
languages known (read/write):

such resumes usually find their way to milk cartons as recycled paper.


Approvals and celebrations will rarely surround your inner decisions and choices to follow Personal Truth. You will be challenged and taunted: “Who do you think you are, anyways?” And, indeed, through your choices and decisions, that is precisely the question you are answering–to yourself.

1. you shouldn`t be posting your resume like this randomly on websites.
2. there are some very embaressing english language mistakes which will completely turn off a recruiter. please get your resume proofread by a person with good english acumen.
3. dont mix school and college level info. demarkate the two clearly.
4. there`s hardly ANYTHING mentioned about your bcom years...it`s either school or MBA...what happened in between??
5. if you have any more achievements, please list them. if you dont, please do something to get more content into your resume. A resume should be the starting point of a conversation in your interview...your conversations wont last very long when u dont have enough masala on paper.
6. Dont try to fill up space with stuff like "Marital status" etc...it`s quite childish.

box format is passe. dont use all caps in address. mention bcom papers/major. sex and marital status etc not reqd. mention levels with HSC (XII) as different states have different terminology(e.g karnataka its SSLC & PUC). if u have electronics or comp sc. in XII dont forget to mention. it adds value. format the extracurricular part--spellings, abbreviations and all.

i suggest take professional help from your b-schl counsellor/plcmt or a faculty. also some alumni who are working.
