Dimitar’s Personal Trainer Career
With 8 years of running his own personal training business, Dimitar has plenty of experience. But his resume follows the #1 rule of any resume: it thinks about the reader. While someone hiring you to work as a civil engineer or a CTA might want two or more pages of detail about your business accomplishments, Dimitar’s resume is more designer for potential clients. That’s why it focuses on what they need to know.
1. It shows why he’s a personal trainer
The world has plenty of personal trainers, but finding one with the right perspective and goals is a real challenge for clients. Dimitar’s resume puts those things front and center. From his experience and philosophy sections to his most proud of section, this personal trainer resume puts general health front and center. More than anything else, this dedication to a more holistic focus is what makes Dimitar’s resume stand out. Explaining this passion in multiple ways on multiple parts of the resume helps demonstrate its importance.
2. Shows off his skills
People hire personal trainers for all kinds of things, so it’s important to mention what specific skills you possess. Dimitar does this by modifying Enhancv’s “My Time” section to show his specializations as a personal trainer. The result is more eye catching than a simple list of skills.
3. It makes it easy to get in touch
Dimitar clearly knows one of the biggest barriers for someone finding a personal trainer can be those first small steps. His resume makes it easy by offering email, a personal website, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, for anyone who wants to contact him.
4. It’s the right length
It would have been easy to fill up two pages with details about his sports career, specific courses he’s taken, or other details. But it’s best to leave those for a website. Dimitar chose to make his resume short, clean, and to the point. In this case, one page is perfect.
