Why do I need a resumé?

Resumés can be written for various reasons, like promotions within an organization, or as attachment for a business plan but the most common reason is to apply for a new job. Whatever your reason for writing a resume, its basic purpose is the same:

• The resumé will communicate your experience.
• The resumé will communicate your skills.
• The resumé will show your education and qualifications related to a specific position with an employer.
