If you haven't had time to perfect your resume, now is the moment! Your resume is an extremely important aspect of your job search. It is the first example of work that a potential employer will usually see from you. Furthermore, you must assume that the people against whom you are competing for jobs will have flawlessly edited resumes - because they likely will! Needless to say, your resume must be flawless in order to compete effectively.
You never know when you will suddenly need to send someone your resume.
Having an up-to-date resume ready to go at all times shows that you are
organized and dedicated to your job search. If you meet someone who says
to you, "Please send me your resume," and you don't have one ready to
send, or you send one that is thrown together hastily, you may miss out
on a valuable opportunity.
Keep in mind that resume review doesn't happen overnight. Ideally, you will go through several drafts before finalizing your resume, and those drafts will be reviewed by numerous people. This is a lengthy process. Start now, and the next time someone asks you for your resume, you can answer with confidence, "Of course, I'll send it right away!"
