3 Tips For Creating An Outstanding Resume

For Your Dream Role

Whether you’re a Nanny, Executive Housekeeper, Private Chef, Family or Personal Assistant, submitting a resume that best reflects your professional experience is imperative. Applying for your dream domestic role is an exciting experience and we, here at Belle Maison, want to help make the process a little more seamless. The following are our three highly recommended tips for creating the best resume for your next dream domestic role:

1. Keep It Simple Probably one of the most important things in creating a resume is making sure to keep it simple. You don’t want to go overboard with different templates and colors that could potentially distract from the story your resume is trying to convey to the recruiter. If you have long work history put the focus on your most recent accomplishments. Your resume should NEVER be over two pages.

2. Relevant Experience

Presenting information that is clear and relevant could very well be the deciding factor that gets you the agency interview you’re hoping for. For example, if you’re applying for a loving Nanny role, you want to make sure your resume lists recent, accurate, professional in-home experience. Your resume should tell a story that positions you as the ideal candidate and not the opposite.

3. Make It Easy

Resumes follow a specific format, typically, having your name and contact info at the top, followed by a summary of your skills or qualifications, your professional experience history, your education or credentials, and any other additional interesting information that might be helpful for a hiring manager to know. The best way to present your career information is through a chronological resume format with bulleted skills listed below each position. And unfortunately, Nanny, Housekeeper, and Estate Manager resumes are no exception.

Did you know the average recruiter spends 6 seconds looking at your resume?
