Tailoring your resume between submissions is the simplest way to guarantee it receives correct consideration. that doesn't imply laboriously revising each side of your document. Let's be clear : your work history is your task history, and, at least in all of the significant ways it should not change. Here is what should :

One ) INSERT THE PRECISE TITLE OF THE POSITION YOU"RESIGNING FOR 
Many resumes commence with an overly-general heading like "Executive-Level Management". This tells a hiring agent nearly nothing. Instead, insert the precise TITLE of the position you are making an application for in large font size and boldfaced at the top of your resume. This stops misunderstanding and straight away communicates your aim.

Two ) REVISE THE OPENING OF YOUR RESUME 
Each resume should start with a temporary paragraph demonstrating key endowments. precisely WHICH features to highlight boils down to the kind of position you are submitting to.  -Look thru postings for the sort of job you would like to submit to. Identify key endowments that are in serious demand ( and which you have got ).  -Craft an opening paragraph highlighting these. As an example, an applicant for a manager of Media position could create an opening like : "Seasoned media pro able to lead branding efforts reaching new audiences, spearhead product launches, and deliver remarkable customer results spanning various geographies and budgets. Committed to forging media partnerships, forcefully controlling spend, and expanding staff proficiencies thru hands-on coaching and mentoring. " -Repeat this process when submitting to different sorts of positions.

Three ) ENSURE CLOSING SECTIONS SUPPORT YOUR JOB TARGET 
The golden rule when tailoring resumes is to ONLY INCLUDE info that braces your total display. Taking that into account, keep closing sections passing and centered only on education / sophisticated coaching credits, pro certifications, and memberships that in some form refer to the sort of position you are looking for.The rest, including personal information and pastimes / interests, should be thrown out.
