Understanding what your resume is really supposed to do is key to putting your best self forward on paper. Most people think of their resume as a job application, but it's really an interview application. No matter how well put together it is, a resume alone won't get you a job. What it can do is get you in the door for a face-to-face interview, which (if you nail it) is what will land you the job.
So keep in mind when writing your resume that it's purpose is to get you an interview, not get you a job.
