Charles Aris believes the best resume is the one that accurately and persuasively tells your story. Charles Aris will work with each individual candidate to make certain the resume submitted to the employer meets these criteria. In general terms, your resume should include:

• Contact. Include your current phone and/or fax number(s), your postal address, and your email address at the top of your resume.
• Objective. Your objective statement should be a brief statement that shows employers you know what you want and you know how to get it. Ultimately it depends on your situation, your level of experience, and your desired position.
• Professional Experience. This is the heart of the resume. List every position you've held in reverse chronological order. If you've held multiple positions within the same company, list every position. Be sure to include the month and year of when you started and left each position. Underneath each position include a brief description of your role and responsibilities, and then what you personally accomplished in the job. Show that you've gotten results and solved problems within the organization. You’ll want to provide more detail on your most recent positions.
• Education. The education area of your resume should include the institution's name and location, along with your degree and the year you obtained it. Beyond that, you can include educational honors, seminars and certifications, and list achievements such as projects, awards, and grade-point averages.
