Answer 1

Writing a resume can seem to be a frustrating task especially if you have never written a resume before. Thankfully in the new age of technology there are several online websites that offer to help individuals with writing their resume. This is perfect for someone who is a novice at resume writing.

A resume writing website will ease the intimidation of writing an effective resume. It is often times difficult to know what to include in a resume or what to highlight or what to emphasize. The pressure is placed on an individual because our resume is a foot in the door. There are an estimated one hundred applicants for any open position.

A résumé writing website will offer important services to users such as resume writing software, free resume samples to view, answers to the most frequently asked resume questions, free tips on writing a resume and the resume forum where you can chart with others. This is a valuable online resource that is changing the way we write resumes.

It is so important to have detailed and organized résumé that impresses potential employers. If you are a beginner at resume writing then it is recommended that you visit a resume building website. Put your best foot forward when you are applying for a job.

Answer 3

Put down your education and highlight your computer skills and what computer programs you took.   You have a 2 year old boy which takes personal skills such as patience which can be a great attribute to have when dealing with an array of different clientele, mention this in your resume.   One page is good because most employers will only read 1 page, so don't worry and get some samples of the internet of how to complete a resume.  Good luck!
