If You Need To Write A Network Administrator Resume... you already know how tough the job market is in the information technology industry. With the worst economy in decades, people are chasing job opportunities in herds. Increasingly, resumes competing for good jobs in network management are being written by professional resume services. Should yours be written by a pro?

Maybe, maybe not. If you've got some time, willingness to do a little study, and a marketing aptitude, you can craft a resume that can compete. But keep in mind...

The Pro Has Four Advantages When Writing A Network Administrator Resume

The professional resume writer brings some advantages to the game right off the bat. You'll need to match these advantages, or compensate in other ways, if you plan to write your own resume.

1. The professional resume writer is adept in the techniques of resume writing. These are things like knowing which format to go with (chronological, functional or a combination of the two), knowing what information to include on a network administrator resume, and knowing what to leave off (sometimes more important).
2. The pro has industry experience that is both perceptive and objective. As a side note, the better and larger resume services are often able to pair you with a writer holding experience from your specific professional discipline -- delivering a writer who can, for example, speak the language of "network management" while maintaining that critical, unbiased eye necessary to write promotional copy that doesn't come off sounding vain or posturing.
3. The pro is comfortable working with "keywords." These are buzzwords and critical phrases that help define your discipline. The pro understands them and can utilize them strategically within a resume to ensure that resume will pop up in database searches.
4. A certified resume writer is, most importantly, a marketing pro. There's a real skill in selling a prospective new hire to an often cynical audience (i.e. recruiters and hiring officials screening network administrator candidates) with nothing more than words on a page.

Where To Start With Your Network Administrator Resume...

As a former resume writer, I can say without a doubt that each and every one of my clients, from every occupational walk of life, could have crafted a resume themselves that could have been competitive in the marketplace. And that includes clients in network administration. But they came to me because they didn't have the time or the inclination to get up to speed on resume techniques. Or they found that their job qualifications were difficult for them to express in a promotional -- and unbiased -- manner.

If you're an administrator who falls into either category, you've got plenty of company. And you've probably noticed there are a lot of resume services popping up to take advantage of these economic times. I've tried to separate the good from the not-so-good when it comes to resume services. I personally hope you'll take a look at our Resume Writer Reviews, a lineup of mini-reviews of the more popular resume writing services on the web. I show their pricing points, and give each one a star ranking. Pick one or two and go in-depth...
