What does Medical Match know about Resumes?

If you are looking for a medical position in the Denver, Colorado area, Medical Match is an excellent FREE resource. We keep ongoing communications with hundreds of medical offices. After years in the medical staffing arena we know an effective resume can move you from the masses of non-qualified applicants to a selected group of finalists.

Keys to an effective resume:

For general staffing, administrators do not have time to read long and wordy resumes. They will sort and prioritize candidates whose resumes easily show the skills, experience and/or education in their price range.

• A one page organized resume respects the manager's time

For education, professional and administrative positions, a CV, "curriculum vitae" will emphasize education, employment history and publications in detail. A CV may run several pages long.

• Keep it clean

Although very nice when mailed, fancy paper with borders, marble veining, or textures do not fax well. Plain white backgrounds are best. Many times we will receive resumes which have been copied many times and are almost illegible. The impression is careless resume = careless person. Send clean copies. Try email. Emailed resumes are very legible.

• Keep it clear

Organization, correct spelling, and an easy to read type style (not script) reflects clear thinking. Divide one page into sections:

• Accurate CONTACT information (name, address, phone, e-mail)
• Very simple OBJECTIVE (specific to that job)
• Exact medical and office SKILLS
• WORK HISTORY with the most current listed first
• EDUCATION and CERTIFICATIONS noting location and dates
• Professional REFERENCES with current phone numbers

• Keep it complete

Nothing creates more suspicion than time gaps in a resume, Don't worry about your age; a good interviewer is going to figure it out anyway. Each office will choose the candidate who fits their needs and cultures best. Some want trainees, others want experience.

• Keep it honest

We protect our clients with business references and Colorado criminal background checks. Since employees can be fired for falsifying information on a resume or application anyway, be honest from the beginning.
