San Diego employers are looking for professionals with hands-on work experience. According to a recent survey, 71% of San Diego employers are looking for applicants with hands-on experience in the field they're trying to enter. This can be hard to come by if you're just out of school, so make sure you are prepared to show that you have the necessary skills to be productive on the job from day one. Be ready with examples of times when you've shown initiative and used creative solutions to solve problems. Bring demonstrable examples of your work. If you've been out of the field for a few years, don't just come up with an example. With a resume, be sure to include a list of things that show you've actually done the work. This will almost always impress employers and make them more likely to choose you for an interview. The local San Diego job market has been consistently growing over the past year and is expected to continue gaining momentum into 2017. If your goal is to find a career in San Diego, you'll want to get started on your networking as soon as possible because most types of employment are expected to rise between 5.8% and 15% by 2018.

Conclusion
Most of the time, resumes would just be one sentence and a list of skills. But employers want to see your potential, so keep that in mind when writing your resume. The bigger picture is really what you should be showing off with your resume. No matter what type of job it is, you'll want to show employers what you can do and that's why we recommend that you include a cover letter as well.
