Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to examine some features of electronic résumés. Many résumeés are now read electronically by computers programmed to look for key words that correspond to the job requirements. Paper résumeés are scanned into the computer. E-mailed résumeés are also added to the collection in the computer. The electronic résumé therefore should be organized so that the computer can easily find specific content. This paper provides guidelines for producing a proper electronic readable résumé.
