I'm turned in a resume and was told that its not specific enough. I listed an objective, past jobs, responsibilites, education and volunteer work. I used one of microsoft word's templates. Any ideas on how I can beef up my resume? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. Don't use a microsoft word pre-formatted one - change it around some so it doesn't look so generic. I hate looking at those resumes that look like something straight out of MS Word.
2. Does your objective sound specific enough? You might need to "customize" the objective to match the job you are trying to get . This may include the type ofcompany, position and culture of the company.

There are many various ways to write a resume and a cover letter. I have placed in the source box where you can source information to do this. It is difficult to answer the question not knowing what employment it is.

Tell how each of these past jobs, responsibilities, education and volunteer work make you the perfect choice for the job.
