How You Should Show Computer Training On Your Resume

In a world where job security is no longer guaranteed many people are now realizing how important it is to have an up to date resume. Gone are the days where you work for one employer for 30 years, now it's a dog eat dog world and at anytime, anyone of us could find ourselves out on the street looking for work. As an employer I realize just how difficult it can be to keep your employees job safe in such an uncertain world when you can have a customer go broke and not pay you hundreds of thousands of dollars. None of us are really safe, even employers can find themselves looking for a job.
Nevertheless one of the key things that I say to all of my team is that you must take every opportunity that is presented to you. For example, if an employer offers you to do some training, take it with open arms because you never know when you might be offered it, even if you have to do it after hours. It amazes me in this day and age how some people knock back doing training simply because they are too lazy.
So why is this important  to do computer courses in islamabad...            
Well employers today have many people to choose from in the job market and getting noticed in a crowded market can be difficult but not just for the candidates, also for employers as well. As an employer, I often find it really difficult to know a persons skills level just from their resume. The current rule of thumb being bandied around the employment agencies is that your resume should only be 2 pages to 3 pages long. Well one of the things I have found is that it is all well and good for the employment agencies to recommend only 2 to 3 pages but as an employer it doesn't help me when I am trying to differentiate one potential employee to another.
One of the other things many agencies tell you is to only put a summary of your training or computer training into your resume. Well let me blunt with you, you are selling yourself short if you do this. One of the things I have learnt over the last five years in building my computer training company is that not all training companies are the same and not all training from these companies are the same. Plus, employers want to see who you have been trained by, how long ago you did your training and any qualifications that you may have from this training.
This opens up an important issue at this point. When you undertake computer courses in islamabad in today's marketplace, you will often simply do courses where you receive a Certificate of Attendance. For example, you might have been sent by your employer to do a Microsoft Word 2003 Level 1 day course. Now as this course is simply a one day course and you don't get a certification from the course you will simply get a certificate of attendance. So, one important key issue you must address when writing your resume is to clearly differentiate your certification to your computer courses in rawalpindi.
