The focus of Agniveer has been to Unleash the Legend within. Our articles and books are aimed towards liberating the mind so that each of us can discover the tremendous potentials inside which are often constricted through dogmas and irrational thinking. This process is the true Vedic Dharma in practice. To take this process of legendization a step further, as promised earlier, we are now beginning new sections on Career and Personality Development.

The bulk of Agniveer community comprises youth of today. Thus we believe that these sections would be immensely useful for them to create wonderful careers from their lives, earn riches and then utilize that wealth for noble purposes. The daily Vedic prayer is May we be master of riches! This richness is the honestly earned richness based on foundation of capabilities.

Our firm view is that the only way for transformation of society, nation and world is through enhancement of human capital. No amount of protest movements, wars, fights, emotional rhetorics can achieve what can be achieved only through this essential process. In absence of this, people tend to be emotionally volatile leading to further problems.

Some people say that some nationalists do hunger strikes, others do protest movements, what concrete does Agniveer plan to do. Here is our answer, We humbly attempt to liberate minds and make each of us a legend equivalent to thousands, through enhancement of their capabilities.

This is our answer to all demands of the hour. We do not consider any shorter term solution to work if we ignore this. Some intend to obtain riches by bringing some dollars hidden in some lockers seven seas away, and others consider that this can happen through bringing giants who can whip the existing rulers whenever they steal money. We instead aspire to make each of us so capable that each of us can generate more riches than that can be expected from all other strategies put together. These riches need not be in form of money alone. Our riches refer to unleashing the legend within. And when so many legends unleash themselves together, we have a nation that has amazing wealth, amazing transparency, amazing giants to safeguard us from internal and external enemies, and amazing lessons for entire world.

Towards this goal, we present this short book on quick tips to create an excellent resume. A resume that presents you maximal chance to get that job by establishing your real potentials. This would be Vedas in action. We would be focusing on practical and conceptual aspects that can be immediately put to action.

These tips are developed by experts with significant professional experience and qualifications. Many of these is information that is typically sold at very hefty prices in corporate advisory and training domains.

But like all divine gifts air, water, sunlight we would like to offer at minimal cost as we are looking at much bigger returns that bring us closer to our goal of transformation of society, world and nation.

Also like all good things in world, these would be equally accessible for people of all geographies, faiths, genders and ideology. We hope this would help bring us all together. And then spring us all to even nobler actions!

Lets unleash the legend within!

Resume is typically the first necessary component of your career dream run. A powerful resume not only stands you a significantly better chance to get your dream job but also maintain that impression edge even during the job.

There are hundreds of books and blogs on preparing effective resumes. There are tonnes of information available on this topic. My objective is to present to you some of the more critical tips that can help you create that million dollar resume.

I have been involved in resume development as well as scrutiny for more than a decade now. I must have reviewed tens of thousands of resumes and have been involved in recruitment of thousands in my professional career.

Sometimes the impact of a powerful resume can indeed be so powerful that it overrides all other phases of recruitment interview, due-diligence and even eligibility criteria. I once developed a resume for a bureaucrat that got him a very high placed job circumventing certain government norms. Not that it was deliberate, but just that no one bothered to do the necessary due-diligence once the fit was evident from resume. Of course, there would have been other factors, but by his own admission, the selection was made the moment the ministry saw the resume. Its a different matter that it landed the gentleman in problems later when some detractors threatened with legal actions to score political points. But thats a different story altogether.

The key point is that a smartly crafted resume can definitely turn the tides. The only request is that once you know the secrets of making a powerful resume, do not misuse it to turn the tides wrongly.

Also note that while the above was an extreme example, the real trick lies in preparing a resume that integrates well with your real persona during the interview phase. The worst thing to happen to you is when it becomes evident that someone else made your resume or that you copy-pasted from some other source.

So here is the first basic tip of resume-writing:

Believe me, I have not seen the power of honesty more evident in any other field than in recruitment process. When your resume and interview depict consistently the same confident person with high integrity, that synergy is so powerful that it easily overrides all other lacunae that your profile may have.

There are other benefits of having high integrity as well, but let us focus on resume-building right now.

I have myself been guilty of preparing certain resumes for some closed ones that sailed them through the interview process as well into high placed jobs (We shall discuss art of successful interviewing sometime later) through an unfair advantage. But despite that, the crux of my experience in professional field is that the benefits of being original and honest far more outweigh any short term gains you may make otherwise. So if you want to be truly unleash the legend within, never ever deviate from this golden tip: Be Original and Be Honest.
