A Tailored Resume

I chose to use the artistic style of resume.  I didn't make it exactly the way it was described in the tutorial, but then it wouldn't be very creative or artistic if I did.  I did follow many of the suggestions, however.  I used this one because creativity and fun were stressed within the job description, so I felt the employer is looking for someone that doesn't quite fit the corporate mold.  My first resume scanned on Jobscan.com with a 38%.  Not as bad as it could be, but certainly not as good, either.  After reworking the resume, I returned with an 83%.  I added both hard and soft skills keywords that were used within the job description as well as the name of the position itself in order to catch any search the employer might use.
