- Always begin your resume with your most recent job experience.
- Highlight (italics, bold, or underscore) your achievements and successes.
- Use the same pattern of spacing in order of presentation and format. Be consistent with format throughout.
- Attach a separate list of professional references, including current phone numbers for any former supervisors and of course any letter of recommendation you may have.
- Make every attempt to keep your resume to one page whenever possible.
- Proofread - Proofread - Proofread! Never submit a resume with a misspelled word, improper grammar or typo! Let your professional resume reflect the professional you will be in the work place!

Interview with Confidence!
Land that job! Over the years we’ve heard it all! Some interviews are routine, even mundane. However, you should be prepared to answer anything! There is always a reason for each question - even if a firm just wants to know how quickly you think on your feet!
- Be Confident
Don’t confuse this with arrogance. Demonstrate that you can do the job, but also that you are a team player! Avoid ‘filler’ words when speaking, such as uh, well, like, you know, etc. - It about Attitude
A warm, agreeable and friendly manner will set the tone. Always maintain eye contact and be aware of your body language. - Be Prepared
These days, there is no excuse for not gathering information regarding the company with which you are interviewing. Interviewers love it when they know you’ve done your homework! This also enables you to ask good questions and impress. Remember to always take a hard copy of your resume with you. - Be Assertive
Don’t confuse this with aggressiveness. Resist asking what the job pays, what the chances for promotion are etc. After all, that’s why you’re working with us. That’s part of our job, so you look good and all parties can make a good decision! - Be Polished
Even though the attire in the office may be casual, always dress professionally. Once you are employed ... dress for the position you aspire to, not the one you have.
Once you have the JOB or ASSIGNMENT, here’s how you can shine!
- Show Initiative
- Stay busy, and always ask for something to do when you are idle. Ask questions! This always demonstrates that you are a committed pro!
- Be Professional
Conduct yourself as a professional at all times. This means no cell phones, texting, personal calls, office gossip, etc. - Be Punctual
Be on time, take appropriate breaks, and whenever possible, let management know that you don’t mind staying late if you can make a contribution! Often, this alone will make you stand out. - Stay Confidential
Don’t ever discuss the company’s business outside of the office. You’re part of the team, and what happens here, stays here. - Have Patience
Thousands of happily employed people were very discontented on the first day, even the first week or two! Although we do not want you to be unhappy on your job, it’s always advisable to give it a while, before you make a decision. Always feel free to contact your recruiter if you have any concerns. We are on call 24/7 to assist you.
Remember, Judy’s employs only the very best! “Employ” these strategies and you will excel.
