If you forgot something or think something would look better another way. Most importantly is a cover letter. If you do not have one, I would recommend one. Alot of companies won't even consider your application/resume without one. I found this out the hard way. The minute I added a cover letter, the calls started coming in. I would also recommend checking out this website http://www.rockportinstitute.com/resumes.html You may find some good tips and things you did not know. Good luck.<br><b>References : </b><br> Updating your resume is a good thing as long as it is all true. If you forgot something or think something would look better another way.

As long as u don't lie or twist words (U put down Office Manager when u were a receptionist) or lie about your work history, there is nothing wrong with changing your resume! -Good luck, its hard finding jobs these days, even with a degree, do what u can to find a decent paying job!<br><b>References : </b><br> Sure, why not! the purpose of a resume is to sell yourself to potential employers, so if u have something to add to your resume that u think would increase your chances of getting hired, i’d say go for it!
