My resume will be very short, I've only held one job for the past 15 years and most websites I've visited seem to think you're writing a resume with a specific job in mind, I have no idea what it is I want to do, is it ok to do a general resume? You know, list all of the things that apply to jobs I'd like to do? For instance one of the things I am actively looking for is a composing gig for a video game, but I don't know how likely I am to come across that, other than that all I know is I'd like to be inside and use my French skills daily.

Creating multiple versions of a resume can be helpful in landing a job. You could create a general resume in Word and make copies for each job path you are interested in.

For example, I was once interested in a video editing job, so I created a copy of my resume, left most of it the same, but I added video tools I had experience with at home, a sentence or two about work with a video production studio I do during my current job, and a link to something I had created. It wasn't a lot of changes, but it helped make me more marketable for a particular job.

I do what Yzen does. When I see a job I am interested in, I tailor my resume to that job based on a sort of master resume that includes everything.

Another way to do this is to use your general resume and write a cover letter that highlights the parts of your resume that apply to that specific job.
