Building Your Brand Ambassador Resume – Step 3: The Finishing Touches

Now that you’ve laid the foundation and built the structure, it’s time to apply the finishing touches to your brand ambassador resume. Step 3 is about finalizing the look, layout, and design so your resume is functional and is visually impactful.

Building Your Brand Ambassador Resume: Creating the Final Look

Sample Resume

Remember the Role

  • Your resume is your first and most impactful chance to show employers that you understand how to represent a brand. Your resume is YOUR professional BRAND after all! There is a strong connection between the role of a brand ambassador and how you present yourself as a brand.

Conduct an Overview

  • Reviewing your resume from the perspective of a potential employer can help you identify any final changes you’d like to make. Approach this step as if you don’t know the applicant. What is your impression? Use this perspective to consider any potential edits.

Finalize the Design

  • To ensure the information is formatted in an appealing way, make any necessary changes. Moving and resizing content may be needed. For example: adjusting sections so they line up, increasing headshot size for better viewing, adjusting font size for consistency, etc.

Add and Check Hyperlinks

  • In your contact information, link your email address, website, and social profiles, and test to ensure they are clickable and correct.

Final Review and Proofing

  • Once you’ve completed the steps above, review your resume thoroughly. Check for spelling and grammatical errors using a tool like Grammarly, double-check your contact information to ensure it’s accurate, and give the formatting one last look to ensure it’s consistent and appealing. Once you’re happy with it, have someone else proofread it for you.

Save a Template

  • Make a copy of your resume to use as a template that you can easily edit. This way, you can add new jobs, roles, and skills as you acquire them. Keeping your resume up to date is crucial so that future staffing agencies can see that you actively engage in the industry.

Save the Final Document as a PDF

  • Export your resume as a PDF titled:
    • FirstName_LastName_Resume
      • Example: Jaime_Smith_Resume

Final Thoughts

To increase your chances of impressing potential agency reps, it’s important to clearly convey your experience, professional identity, and knowledge. Employers want to see that you are easy to work with, genuinely interested in the position, and understand the qualities of a professional.
