tailor them as best you can, keep it to one page max. NO TYPOS, double spaces between words, single spaces after periods. I don't even read them if there are errors in them.
Are you moving or looking locally?
If you have a myspace page, shut it down. I always look and would disregard someone who had one. Also, make sure you don't have a stupid email address (i.e., ibangchicks@yahoo.com).

Best interview/resume/cover letter advice I've ever gotten:
Always remember you are shopping THEM as much as you are selling yourself. When you keep in mind (without being cocky) that you are a potential asset to their company, that confidence comes through every step of the way.
Only one catch -- you have to actually believe you are a potentially valuable asset. Similar to confidence, fraudulance is easily spotted.

It will pay off to have a resume and a cover letter done for you.

Most bigger employers have a software that scans for keywords. Professional resume writers can give you an edge.

Also, keep your resume to 2 pages-if not one. Based on the one's I've seen, cutting it down to 1 just to do so can make it look mighty thin.
Plan on 2 pages, and use as much of it as possible to highlight your accomplishments & try to give the reader a good grasp of past work-especially that which was in the same field.
DON"T send in an 8 page diary of your life & then throw a cover page on top of it. I didn't make that up-I got one 2 weeks ago :missingte
