Histori
As has been pointed out above, the word rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © comes from the French word rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © which means "summary". Leonardo da Vinci is credited with the first rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â ©, even though "rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ'Â ©" was taken in the form of a letter written about 1481-1482 to a potential employer, Ludovico Sforza. For the next 450 years, rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' Â © continues to be just a description of a person, and includes their abilities and past work. In the early 1900s, rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'ÂÂ s noted things such as weight, height, marital status, and religion. It was not until 1950 that rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © evolved into something more than words written on bits of paper. At that time, rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â Â © s was considered very obligatory, and began entering information such as personal interests and hobbies. It was not until the 1970s, the beginning of the Digital Age, that rÃÆ'Â Ã… © sumÃÆ'§ s took a more professional look in terms of presentations and content.

Description
In many contexts, rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © is usually limited to one or two pages with A4 size or letter size, which only highlights the experience and qualifications considered most relevant to the desired position. Many rÃÆ'ÅÂ sumÃÆ'Â © s contains keywords or skills sought by potential companies through an applicant tracking system, utilizing active verbs, and displaying content in a flattering way. The acronym and credentials after the applicant's name must be spelled out completely in the appropriate section of the resume, greater chances are found in computerized keyword scans. RÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © s can vary in style and length, but should always contain accurate contact information from job seekers.
A rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © is a marketing tool in which the content must be tailored to fit each work application or application intended for a particular industry. Transmission rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ'Â © s directly to entrepreneurs became increasingly popular until the end of 2002. Job-seekers can avoid the process of job application and reach employers through direct email contacts and rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' Â © blasting, a term that means mass distribution of rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © s to increase personal visibility in the job market. However, the distribution of mass rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â s to the entrepreneur can often have a negative effect on the possibility of the applicant to get a job because rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â ¢ s tends not to be adjusted for the particular position that the applicant asks. Therefore, it is wise to optimize rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â © for each applied position and its keywords. To keep track of all experience, saving documents 'master rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â ©' is recommended, providing job seekers with the ability to customize customized rÃÆ'Â Â © sumÃÆ'Â © while ensuring foreign information is easily accessible for future use if required.
The complexity or simplicity of the various formats rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â © tend to produce results that vary from person to person, to job, and to industry. RÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ'Â © s or CVs used by medical professionals, professors, artists and people in other specialized fields may be relatively longer. For example, an artist rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ'Â ©, usually excluding non-art related work, may include an extensive list of solo and group exhibitions.
Styles
RÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â © s can be organized in different ways. The following are some of the more common formats of rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â ©:
Reverse chronologically rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â ©
An inverted chronological ranch determines the list of candidate's work experiences in chronological order, generally covering the previous 10 to 15 years. Positions are listed with start and end dates. The current position in rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ' © usually lists the start date to the present. The chronological format rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © upside is most commonly used by those who are not professional rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'  © author. In using this format, the main part of the document becomes part of the Professional Experience, starting from the latest experience and moving backwards chronologically through a series of previous experiences. The reverse chronological ranch  © works to build credibility through acquired experience, while portraying career growth over time and filling in all the loopholes in the career path. A rà © rio à © rà © rÃ'r chronologically is not recommended for job seekers with gaps in their career summaries. In the UK, chronological résumés tend to extend only to the extent of the applicant's GCSE/Standard Grade qualification.
Functional rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â ©
Function rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' Â © list of work experience and skills sorted by skill area or job function.
The function rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © is used to focus on skills that are specific to the type of position being sought. This format directly emphasizes certain professional skills and utilizes a summary of experience as the primary means of communicating professional competence. In contrast, chronological format rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ' © will briefly highlight this competency before presenting a comprehensive timeline of career growth through an inverted chronological list, with the most recent experience listed first. The rà ©  ©  © works well for those who make career changes, have varying work history or with little work experience. The function rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © is also preferred for applications for jobs that require very specific skills or clear personality traits. A functional rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' ©  © functional is a good method to highlight a particular skill or experience, especially when a particular skill or experience may come from a role held some time ago. Instead of focusing on the length of time that has elapsed, rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © rights allows readers to identify those skills quickly.
Hybrid rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â ©
The rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'  © rb  © balancing the functional and chronological approach. A rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' © held in this way usually leads to a functional list of job skills, followed by a chronological list of entrepreneurs. Hybrids have a tendency to repeat themselves and therefore, are less widely used than the other two.
Online rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © s
Because job searches have become more electronic, it is common for entrepreneurs to only accept rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â © s electronically, either because of their practicality or preference. This has changed a lot about the way in which rÃÆ'Ã… Â © sumÃÆ'ÂÂ © is written, read, and processed. Some career experts point out that today's paper-based resume is an exception rather than a rule.
Many companies now find candidates' rà © sumà ©  © through search engines, which makes it more important for candidates to use the right keywords when writing rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ' ©. Larger entrepreneurs use Applicant Tracking Systems to search, filter, and manage high-volume rà © sumà ©  ©. Job ads can direct applicants to send email to rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'  © to the company or visit its website and send rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'  © in electronic format.
Many companies, and recruitment agencies working on their behalf, insist on receiving rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' Â © s in certain file formats. Some require Microsoft Word documents, while others will only accept rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © s formatted in HTML, PDF, or plain ASCII text.
Another consideration for electronic rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'  © documents is that they are parsed with natural language processors. RÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © parser can correctly interpret some parts of the content of rà © sumà ©  © but not other parts. Steering rà © Ã… © sumà ©  © best captures a high percentage of information about location, name, title, but is less accurate with skills, industries and other data that is poorly structured or rapidly changing. RÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'  © s is written in a standard format more likely to be interpreted correctly by the parser rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' ©, and thus can make the candidate more discoverable.
One of the advantages for entrepreneurs to online rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â © s is a significant cost savings compared to traditional hiring methods. Another is that prospective employers no longer have to sort through the massive pile of papers.
Infographics, videos and websites rÃÆ' © sumà ©  © s
As the Internet becomes more driven by multimedia, jobseekers have been trying to take advantage of the trend by moving rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' Â © away from traditional newspaper and email media.
Videos, infographics, and even Vine rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â © s have gained popularity, though especially in the creative and media industries.
This trend has attracted criticism from human resource management professionals, who warned that this might be a passing trend and suggests that rÃÆ' Å © sumà ©  © multimedia may be overlooked by recruiters whose workflow is designed only to accommodate traditional rÃÆ' ÂÅÅà © Ã… © format.
RÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © evaluations
Many rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ' Â © development agencies offer evaluation services rÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © where they evaluate rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'Â © and suggest any necessary changes. The candidate is free to make the change itself or can take help from the agency itself. Some career fields include a special section that lists the author's lifetime works: for areas related to computers, softography; for musicians and composers, discography; for actors, filmography.
Keeping rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'  © s online has become increasingly common for people in the profession who benefit from multimedia and rich detail offered by rà © rÃ'r ©, such as actors, photographers, graphic designers, developers, dancers , etc. searchers are finding increasing demand to have electronic versions of rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'  © available to employers and professionals who use internet recruits. Online services rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © distribution has emerged to allow job seekers to distribute rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © s to many companies of their choice via email.
RÃÆ' Â © sumÃÆ' Â © as one part of the blend of imaging private brand
In some sectors, especially in the startup community, the traditional use of traditional "hà © Ã… © à © Ã… © has experienced a consistent decline. While standalone rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © s is still used to apply for jobs, job seekers can also view rÃÆ'Ã… © sumÃÆ'¼ s as one of a number of assets that make up their personal brand and work together to strengthen their work application. In this scenario, rÃÆ'  © sumÃÆ'  © s is commonly used to provide potential employers with factual information (eg, achievements), while social media platforms provide insights into the motivation and personality of job seekers.
