When writing a senior-level resume, it is critically important to present yourself in a way that best showcases your unique skills and knowledge.  To do so, develop an “Executive Summary” section on the resume, which is simply a synopsis of your qualifications.The summary is a fast and effective way to hook your reader into looking at the rest of your executive resume.  Without it, employers will have to sift through your entire resume to find out what you can do.It should be composed of three to four short, concise statements that explain why you are the ideal candidate for the job.  Mention anything that you feel will entice the reader; your statements should be powerful but truthful.To help in determining what to write, answer the following questions:

• How much experience do you have in your field?
• Do you have a particular achievement or skill that you feel makes you unique?
• How do you measure up to the standards of success for this position?
• Why are you a good fit for this position?
• What personal attributes do you have that would be valued by the employer?
• What technical skills or other particularly relevant skills (foreign languages, artistic talent, etc.) do you possess?
