SEO Positions (MYS)

Keep several versions of your resume handy by creating similar, but not exact duplicate, copies of them! Using your favorite text editor or word processing app, switch some of the keywords in your resume around so that each copy of your resume has a slightly different mix of them. When applying for a job, pick the version that has the most relevant keyword matches to the job listing and submit that version for the hiring manager to review. Some job seekers may argue that it is better to just tailor the keywords on an as-needed basis, but if you have set up the multiple versions of your resume beforehand, you will be able to respond to job openings much quicker than editing resume versions on the fly!
