Here's how you can meet the specified deadline for completing and submitting your resume.

I advise professionals to Start by setting a clear deadline for yourself, ideally a few days before the actual submission date. This buffer allows for any unforeseen delays. Break down the resume creation process into smaller tasks and set mini-deadlines for each.

To meet a resume submission deadline: Understand the Deadline: Know the exact date and time, and set reminders. Break Down the Task: Outline sections, and create a checklist. Set Milestones: Establish mini-deadlines and allocate time blocks. Gather Information: Collect necessary details and keywords. Draft: Create a rough draft using templates if needed. Review and Revise: Ensure accuracy and clarity. Seek Feedback: Get input from others. Final Edits: Incorporate feedback and polish format. Proofread: Catch and fix any errors. Please submit early: Save in the format you prefer and submit ahead of time. Stay organized and focused to meet the deadline.

After planning is done, try best to compile all necessary information such as personal details, educational background, work experience, skills, certifications, and references. Keep this information organized and easily accessible.

Create a rough draft without worrying about formatting or perfection. Focus on getting all the relevant information down. This is the stage to brainstorm and decide what to include in your resume.

Review your draft with a critical eye. Remove any fluff or irrelevant information. Ensure that every sentence adds value and aligns with the job you’re applying for. Ask for feedback from mentors or peers.

Choose a clean, professional layout that is easy to read. Use bullet points to list items and bold headings to separate sections. Stick to one or two fonts at most

Don’t wait until the last minute. Aim to submit your resume at least a day before the deadline. This gives you a cushion in case of any technical issues or last-minute updates.

Be prepared with a basic format of resume and make changes or add additional information as per the job role. But most probably we know which is our Target job role or Target industry. So always be prepared with multiple variants of your resume to upload as soon as possible

Also submit a hard copy if possible. Mailed reume may be missed but a hard copy rarely. Also if there are too many resumes the HR may not print out eachvone of them and yours may be one such. A hard copy will be automatically included by the HR, preventing you from missingvout totally.

Use an online job search tracker or an Excel/Google Sheet to keep track of your application deadlines and key dates. Free templates are available online to help you stay organised. Use colour coding to quickly identify which applications you need to apply to, which ones are in progress, which ones require follow-up, and which ones have resulted in an invitation for the next steps or a rejection email. If you're actively searching for a job, aim to update this tracker daily by setting aside some time in your calendar. This practice is well worth the effort and will help you stay on track.
