Targeted Resume
A targeted resume is one which is specifically designed to be used to support one job application to a particular employer. Therefore it has to focus on the qualifications, experience, skills and other qualities which will be required for that exact role. It is therefore essential to think carefully how to match your attributes to what the employer is seeking. An example of a targeted resume is shown below.
