The Powerful Media of Resume and Public Speaking
The 2nd session of OJC TelU and UniKL was continued to the explanation of what resume is. Resume is the key to open the door of your future where most of the employers want to know you beforehand through your resume. Why is a resume very important? Because it is one of marketing tools that will sell the best of you to the employer. Typically, the employers want to see you first on a paper (resume) before seeing you in person. So, creating your best resume might be the best solution to achieve a better future.
One of the speakers in a 2nd session of OJC TelU and UniKL also explained about the sections of a resume, which are contact information, objective statement, summary of qualifications, experience, education/training, employment history, and referees. As for referees in the resume, try to avoid the name of parents. We, however, may put our supervisor during your industrial training program or your own lecturer at university, but let them know that they are going to be our referees in our resume.
The next important aspect for English in Business besides an outstanding resume is being a great public speaker. Communication skills are your ticket to work. Nowadays, everyone can have their own platform for public speaking in the digital era and the use of digital literacy is not only an asset but also a need.
Lately, there are dozens of platforms that public speakers can use as some of the media to deliver subjects that we want to share. We, nowadays, have also to become media savvy who are not only the ones who consume the content but also produce the content on social media.
Through this 2nd session of OJC TelU and UniKL: English for Business, we’ve already known the importance of resume and public speaking in seeking the better future in our life, whether it is for having a job or in a business field.
