The Value of having Multiple Resumes

When looking for a job, Shri says that having multiple resume versions is the "secret" to success. Multiple resumes allows you to target different categories of jobs by emphasizing different skills, experiences and qualifications.

The multiple resume technique even allows you to focus on a job within a specific company. Employing this strategy, multiple resumes, empowers you by making yourself more attractive to more employers, which results in more job interviews.

Shri recommends that you maintain, and regularly update, one "master" resume that contains all of your relevant skills and accomplishments for your primary profile. This is the resume version used by most job hunters. From this point, any additional resume would be your next "version," and used for targeting different categories or specific jobs.
