Generic resumes get ignored. Tailoring doesn't mean rewriting everything—it means making strategic swaps that align you with each role.
Start With the Job Description
Read it carefully. List the required skills, preferred qualifications, and keywords. These should appear in your resume—naturally, not forced.
Customize Your Summary
Change 1–2 sentences to match the role. Use the job title and key requirements. This is the easiest win.
Reorder and Reframe Bullets
For each job, pick the 2–3 bullets most relevant to the new role. Put them first. Adjust wording to use the employer's language.
Adjust Your Skills Section
Bring required skills to the top. Add any that appear in the job description if you genuinely have them.
