Every resume represents not only an individual person, but also their career history, qualifications and experience which relate to the position they are applying for.
Various industries require information relating specifically to that industry, set out in a particular way.
For example, mining companies/labour hire agencies require particular information about qualifications, licences/tickets including numbers, expiry and issue dates so that they can ensure your qualifications are valid and up to date. Depending on your occupation, they may also require information about the types of machinery you have worked on.
Resumes for school teachers may need to include their thoughts on pedagogy, adherence to a specific religion and extra-curricular activities such as curriculum development, or behaviour management.
Cabin Crew need their resume to reflect their high customer service standards, ability to manage people, commitment to safety - even their personal grooming standards.
Focusing your resume towards the particular industry you are targeting is crucial. It shows you know what you are talking about, your experience is relevant to the position and you are professional. Very important as after all, it has to represent you in your absence and get you in the door for an interview.
