Which of the following is the purpose of a résumé?

A) To get a job
B) To increase your network
C) To get an interview
D) To create a compelling narrative the employer will carefully read
E) To provide every positive detail to show the candidate in the best possible light

The main purpose of a résumé is to get an interview by highlighting the candidate's skills, experience, and qualifications in a clear and concise manner. While a résumé should show the candidate in a positive light, it should also be truthful and avoid exaggeration or unnecessary details. The résumé is not meant to increase a candidate's network or create a compelling narrative that the employer will carefully read, but rather to provide a snapshot of the candidate's relevant information to determine if they should be called for an interview.
