Resume has existed for 500 years. It turns out that even
geniuses are not spared from explaining why they are the most qualified for a
job. The first ever written professional resume was that of none other than
Leonardo da Vinci which was written in 1482. Since there was no professional
resume writing services then, da Vinci had to do it by himself. The resume was
for the Duke of Milan and the same enumerated his many skills and qualifications,
11 of it to be exact. It was presented in paragraph forms and not the list-type
of resume as we see nowadays.
The resume was written when da Vinci was 30 years old.
Today, however, people who are a lot younger would have to start furnishing
resumes for job applications. Some would argue that what da Vinci submitted was
not really a resume but a cover letter. Indeed, professional resumes as they
are now do not appear like da Vinci’s resume. The document did not contain a
lot of da Vinci’s artistic talents, surprisingly. It was more focused on
enumerating his skills that can help the Duke of Milan develop innovations on
technologies for war.
Today, professional resume writing services are available
for people who do not quite have the idea how to present their skills,
qualifications, and achievements in a form that would impress or make an impact
to a prospective employer.
