HELP! Project Management Resume?

For the most part I do not think it is too bad however my profile paragraph looks a little too wordy. This is my resume:

PROFILE:

Seeking an intern or entry position in Project Management where I can develop and excel while giving my best to an employer. Although I have extensive experience in dealing with customers and other individuals, I have a great deal of ambition, love to learn, and am always up to any challenge that may approach me. I am loyal, dedicated, extensively organized, a fast learner, work well under pressure, and have proven excellence in leadership skills. In addition I get along well with others, while also working efficiently on my own.

Following that is my education/work experience/skills & accomplishments

Listing your good traits and qualies is not the best way to promote yourself. Anyone can say they are organized, etc., but to be believed, you have to be able to demonstrate these abilities.

So, this is what I’d do. I’d go with a brief profile something like this:

“Having acquired x number of years experience providing customer service (or whatever you did), I seek new challenges through an intern or entry position in Project Management”

Then go on with the rest of your resume — but look for ways to demonstrate you have those excellent qualities. For example, where did you demonstrate leadership skills? If this was in a job situation, you might say, “Demonstrated leadership by organizing and chairing a committee to addess the ….”

The same with all of your qualities. Where did you work independently? Say something like,”Worked independently to accomplish….” or “Participated as a team member on multiple projects…

See what I mean? Show them, not tell them.

If you are including a cover letter, you could also elaborate on your organizational skills, etc., in the cover letter.

Great compilation and certainly good humour. In real life many of the Indian so called Heroes’ and Heroins’ CV would be similar or more hilarious. Even more in practical life many people would be lucky to have a CV like this.
