Being in hospitality sector where presentation and service is everything, you will have to write an equally presentable resume so that it attracts maximum attention from the employer. A resume is useful only when it can assure the reader that you are professionally competent. Start your resume with introductory information including contact details followed by a brief career objective. Moving ahead, describe your professional skills, experience and details of the courses you have completed. Any other details that do not relate to the job will act as a spoilsport by diverting the reader's attention.
