 Jobseeker Tip from Waz the Wise Owl: 
 
Tailor your resume for each application.  Different positions will require different skills/experience. Don't shortchange yourself by sending generic "one-resume-fits-all" applications to different job postings. Be sure to read each job posting thoroughly and include your applicable achievements and experiences on your resume.
