Whether your career is in a conservative industry such as banking, finance, and education, or a nontraditional sector such as entertainment and the arts, your resume should:

1. Quickly capture the hiring manager’s attention.

2. Detail the skills and qualifications you can bring to the job.

3. Dovetail your past experience with the needs of the current position.

4. Showcase accomplishments.

A classic resume can effectively do all of that, while also being aesthetically pleasing within the perimeters of your chosen industry.
