It is important for you to choose the best resume format when you are writing the resume for fresher candidate. Here are some tips for writing the B Com fresher resume and the importance of choosing the appropriate resume format for fresher.

Types of resume Format

Chronological Resume

In this resume format the details are listed in the reverse chronological order. This resume format mainly focuses on the skills of the applicant. It is used for listing the academics and work experience of the applicant. The most recent experience or educational qualification is listed first, followed by the next recent details. With this format the employer gets to know your level of expertise.

Functional Resume

Functional resume format is the one that mainly focuses on your skills rather than your experience. This format is most suitable for the people with changing careers or large gaps in their employment history.

Hybrid Resume

The hybrid format is the combination of chronological format and the functional format. In this resume format, skills are listed before your employment details. Reverse chronological order is followed while listing your employment details.

Resume Writing for B Com Fresher:

Fresher candidates do not possess any work experience to mention in his/her resume. Hence, it is important to focus on writing the skills while writing the B Com fresher resume. Chronological resume format is best suitable for writing the fresher resumes. This format focuses on the skills possessed by the candidate. Following is the order of the resume sections for the fresher applicant resume:

• Contact Information

• Career Objective

• Key Skills

• Educational Details

• Additional Certifications

• Experience

• Awards and Honors

• Personal Details

When you are writing the resume for the fresher, remember to list the skills after the career objective. Fresher candidate will not have job relevant work experiences to grab the attention of the employer. Hence, it is important to discuss the job related skills in detail. Going through this section, employer may find you suitable and aspiring for the position and he may short list you for the personal interview.

As you hold a commerce background, you must possess string accounting skills. These skills should essentially be reflected in your resume.

Educational details also have special place in the fresher resume. If you had extensive experience in any particular field, employer would not have focused on your academic details. But as you are fresher applicant, you should meet the necessary educational criterion to apply for the job. Your academics will decide your suitability for the job in the commerce field.

‘Additional certification’ section in the resume will list all your extra certifications, whether relevant or irrelevant to the applied position. In the fresher resume, you have the option to include all your skills, qualifications and certifications; no matter whether it is relevant to the prospective position or not. You don’t know the skills required for working in the position and the things exactly expected by the employer. Hence, it is good to include all your qualifications in your resume when you are fresher.

You can also list the awards received during your school and college in the awards section. But remember that when you are listing all these details maintain the length of the resume and do not let it exceed two pages.

Choosing the Best Resume Format

If you learned to write a resume more than 10 years ago, you may be thinking, "I did not know there were different formats." That"s because until recently, most workers were pretty predictable: they stayed at the same company-or at least within the same field-through their careers. Few people switched careers, and they certainly did not switch careers the three to five times many workers today do.

Everyone learned how to write a chronological resume because it made sense. And it"s still a viable format for many people, but there"s a whole new world of possibilities out there. Below is an outline of popular formats and a listing of when they"re most useful.

Chronological Resumes

These are still the most commonly used resumes-first, because most people apply for jobs that are relatively similar to the position they are currently occupied and secondly, because it"s the most common taught resume. Chronological resumes are perfect for showcasing your growth within a field of employment and progression up a career ladder.

Use this format when you"re:

o Applying for a position within the same field.

o Applying for a promotion at the same company.

To format this type of resume:

o Start with your Objective, where you list a specific job you"re interested in, or an Interest section, where you list a few of your most marketable strengths.

o Next is the Experience or Work History section. In reverse chronological order, list your jobs, dates of employment, and significant tasks.

o Add your Education section third (assuming you"ve been out of school at least five years and have been building your career since then), and include any special training or certificates you"ve received.

o Finish with an Additional Skills list, where you describe abilities that may not be directly related to the job for which you"re applying, but are assets just the same (superior computer skills, foreign languages, etc.).

Functional Resumes

Functional resumes are the second most popular format because they can be used to both highlight and hide certain elements. This format is great for emphasizing a skill set and unique abilities. For better or worse, it does not underscore the jobs you"ve held, so make sure you understand that before putting together a functional resume.

Use this format when you"re:

o Switching careers or fields.

o Re-entering the work force after an absence (to stay at home with kids, an illness, etc.).

o Young and entering the work force for the first time.

To format this type of resume:

o Start with your Objective or Interest section. This is especially important with a functional resume, which may include information from several fields or careers.

o Next list all of your experience under different headings. For example: Sales Experience will include everything you"ve done in sales-from all of your jobs. Organizational Experience will include everything you"ve ever done in that category, etc.

o Third is the actual Employment category. In reverse chronological order, list your employer, dates of employment, and title. Do not record job responsibilities-all of the good stuff will already be listed above.

o Now add your Education section.

o Finish with your Additional Skills section.

Technical Resume

As its name implies, a technical resume is ideal for drawing attention to a job seeker"s technical skills-a highly valuable commodity in today"s market. Done correctly, it also highlights stability.

Use this format when you"re:

o Applying for a technical job and have lots of experience.

To format this type of resume:

o Start with a Profile section that lists your strengths and skill sets.

o Next add an Experience section that lists your jobs and associated responsibilities in reverse chronological order. (Because technical formats are geared toward technical industries, it"s assumed that you do not need to hide career gaps or changes.)

o At the bottom, insert your Education section, and include any additional training, certificates, courses, etc.

Curriculum Vitae

Many people use "curriculum vitae" and "resume" interchangeably. But technically, a curriculum vitae is specifically used within the academic and research arenas. It"s a format that accents teaching, publication, and research experience.

Use a curriculum vitae when you"re:

o Applying for an academic or research position.

To format this type of resume:

o Start with your Education section-even if you"ve been out of school for years. In reverse chronological order, list your degrees, where they were earned, your areas of study or research, and thesis topics.

o Next, in reverse chronological order, list your Practica section (for educators who also have a degree in areas such as psychology, as well as researchers) or Teaching section (for academic resumes). Both of these are the equivalent of the Experience or Work History sections of most job seekers" resumes. If you need both a Practica and Teaching section, list the Practica first.

o Third, list your Research section (if applicable). Discuss what projects you worked on, under who supervision, what the results of your research were, and any other highlights of your experience.

o Add your Publication section next, listing the journals in which your work has appeared.

o Finish with an Affiliation section followed by an Honors or Awards section.

How to Write a Technical CV

A technical CV is used to highlight particular skills that relate to technical jobs in professions such as IT, Engineering and Science.

The key to writing a technical CV is to get the right balance between describing your technical experience and making your CV easily read by a non-technical person such as a Human Resources Assistant. They will be looking for keywords in order to match your CV against a particular vacancy. Therefore, your CV should be clear and concise and written in good English. Technical jargon should be avoided except under the Key Skills and Technical Skills headings.

Do not list every technical skill you have acquainted, however impressive they are, as this will distract the reader. Refer to the job vacancy to remind yourself of the skills the employee is looking for.

You should always include information about how long ago you last used each of your technical skills as the reader will be looking at how current your knowledge is.

The format of a technical CV should be similar to non-technical from the point of view that it should be laid out under clear headings, no more than two pages of A4 in length and have more white on the page than black to make it easy to read.

The employer will be most interested in your technical skills but remembering your interpersonal skills are also important especially if the role for which you are applying is client-facing.

You need to capture the attention of the reader as soon as possible so that they are encouraged to read the rest of your CV. Therefore, in your introductory paragraph, usually called the "Profile", you need to mention the technical skills the employer is asking for and any particular experience that relates to the employers business.

The Key Skills heading allows you to put more detail of relevant skills, experience and specific projects that will interest the employer. You can also highlight achievements, for example where you have saved the company money.

Your Career History should describe the company that you were working for in a couple of lines to put your role into context. Then describe your role and responsibilities. Remember, focus on the requirements of the job you are applying for and show how you have acquainted the necessary skills and experience in previous jobs.

You should list specific technical skills and professional courses under a separate heading. Be concise and put the most relevant skills first.

Keep the description of your education brief. If you have a degree you may wish to exclude your lower qualifications altogether. Remember, adding unnecessary information dilutes the important points in your CV.

Finally, always include a cover letter explaining where you heard about the role and why your skills and experience are a perfect fit for the job. This can be an email with your CV attached or a formal letter.
