It's the big opportunity to advertise yourself and demonstrate that you are right person for the right job. There are few tips to maximize the chances of getting an interview call.
Impressing the Employer
It's really difficult nowadays to find the right job in Software testing market. Even for a single QA job post, recruiters are getting more than hundred resumes. As recruiters don't have enough time to read all the resumes in detail, it's very much essential that you need to write a good CV, which will grab their attention in around 20-30 seconds.
Preparing Your Software testing Resume
Many candidates fill the resume by writing whole story about themselves without thinking what recruiters want. First, focus on what they need. Go through the job details and their requirements. Make sure that your list of skills matches their requirements. And don't forget to list them on the very first page of your resume. Also highlight the job objective clearly.
Mentioning your software testing experience
An experienced software tester shouldn't have any problem mentioning their project details.What if you don't have relevant experience? It's simple. Just get some experience by working on some small projects available on the internet. Search online for dummy projects and download the relevant files. Then follow the testing process like requirement analysis, writing test cases, executing test cases, logging defects and preparing test reports. Also you can get help from experienced software testing professionals for evaluating your projects. Even if you don't have any such experience, there's one more case left. Previously, if you have done any software testing course on manual testing and automation tools then you can put this as your dummy project experience (which may range from 1 to 6 months). This way you can add something up in your resume rather than leaving the experience column blank.
Adding Project details in tester /QA resume
This can be added in your job experience section, highlight the headings like project name, client name, project description, environment, team size and on job accomplishments.
