\"Road<\/a>Spring cleaning, quarterly oil changes, and annual check-ups with your doctor. You are the master of making sure you\u2019re up to date \u2013 but when is the last time your resume had a checkup? Trends in hiring are constantly changing and you want to make sure you\u2019re on the cutting edge. Karen Rehn of HH Staffing Services from Sarasota, Florida gives us the 7 latest and greatest tricks to getting your resume a second glance in 2015.<\/p>\n

Call-out Boxes<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

One resume trend is the call-out box, in which the most important information on the page is highlighted by being placed inside a box to draw the reader\u2019s eye to it. Don\u2019t overuse this visual enhancement, but employ it to make sure the hiring manager sees the most vital thing he must know about you.<\/p>\n

An Emphasis on Achievement<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

More than ever, job recruiters want to know what you\u2019ve actually achieved in your former positions, rather than just seeing job titles and dates of employment. Consider creating a separate section in your resume to provide figures and recognitions highlighting your accomplishments.<\/p>\n

Infographics<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

While an infographic resume isn\u2019t for everyone, if you\u2019re in a creative or design-oriented field, this is one resume trend you shouldn\u2019t ignore. Make sure your infographic resume is beautifully designed and full of content, not just a statement of empty style over substance.<\/p>\n

Smartphone Reliance<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Human resources trends increasingly rely on technology to bridge the gap between companies and ideal job candidates, and HR departments are aware that many candidates conduct their entire job search via their mobile phones. Take advantage of this human resources trend to create selling materials that transmit easily on a small screen.<\/p>\n

A Move Away From Keywords<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

After several years in which job seekers were told to stuff their resumes full of searchable keywords, hiring managers are seeing the result, namely, too many resumes that look exactly the same. While many companies still rely on searchable keywords, a resume trend for 2015 is the more personal resume that\u2019s handed to a job recruiter by someone he knows and that therefore can feel a little less like it came straight from a template.<\/p>\n

The Customized Resume<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Going along with the retreat from all keywords is the customized resume that\u2019s rewritten personally for every job the applicant applies to. This resume trend is one that may be especially useful for job seekers, since it forces them to think about what each employer really needs and figure out how to meet those needs.<\/p>\n

The Video Resume<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Again, this resume trend isn\u2019t one for more conservative industries, but for those in creative fields it can be a wonderful way to connect personally with a hiring manager. Creating a video resume involves providing a link inside an electronic resume that leads to a video of 30 seconds or so in which the applicant introduces himself and provides an advance look at his personality and fit.<\/p>\n
