Technical Resume

(OP)
Hi all,

I am polishing up my resume to start to look into a new position within the engineering community (automotive).

I very much enjoy being in a technical position and would like to express this with a technical type resume.  I was just wondering what tips anyone may have or any resume format that you may have had good luck with.

Regards,

OFB

RE: Technical Resume

Didn't look at the link, but, (a) try and quantify achievements (b) make it interesting (c) make sure your covering letter demonstrates the fit between your resume and the vacancy.

Don't bother telling me about your high school swimming certificates and your lifelong interest in the bassoon.

Cheers

Greg Locock
