ELEMENTS OF A RESUME THAT WILL IMPRESS
The primary element of an ideal resume contains powerful and assertive statements about your talents, characteristics and accomplishments. No need to be shy. You are going for the gold so sell yourself with all that is in you!
The secondary element of an ideal resume will show “you know your stuff” and know it well! This will be proven by education, experience, work history and any other relevant affiliations that shows the prospective employer that you are a person of substance and not only of design.
Keep in mind that the more standard resume will simply be a chronological account of a very boring life and most people will not give it a second glance. Write your resume to be interesting and even impressive and watch as your phone rings for that important interview!
You will write a resume that does much more than just inform; you will write a resume that compels to action! Your resume will become as a good bargaining tool! Your prospective employer will be interested and will stand up and take notice! This is exactly what you want.
Be bold about your assertive statements, but, not too bold. Leave them wanting for more. Tease a bit with nuggets of information and let them be interested to know more.

You have great tips in here. I would like to add one tip. This is what I discover when I had my interview. LOL. I think one tip should be to include a very pleasing photo on the resume. Do you agree?

uuummmm that will surely leave an impression when I read your comment it was nice to see your photo. But you know it depends on what type of job you are applying for some industry might frown on it--personally I like the idea and believe it will keep your resume out of the slush pile.
