Title: What’s Wrong With Your Resume


1
WHATS WRONG WITH YOUR RESUME?
2
AN OBJECTIVE
  • It is obvious that you applied for the position
    so there is no need to include this in you
    resume. Unless you are changing career in which
    you are completely shifting industry, then it
    will be okay to write a brief summary.
  • If you are unsure of this try an online resume
    critique to guide you write a better resume.

PERSONAL DATA
  • The latest resume trends is to not include
    personal data like social security number,
    religious preference, marital status etc. It is
    now illegal for recruiters to ask these
    information from you, so these should be excluded
    from your paper.
  • Even age may not be included to avoid
    discrimination against the position. Thus you may
    omit your graduation dates.

NO ACTION VERBS
  • Instead of writing responsible for, rather use
    action verbs like resolved inquiries on or
    checked safety gears of to describe what you
    do in your past work.
  • Use a tool like resume critique service free, to
    have your resume checked before your opportunity
    jumps out the window.

5
IRRELEVANT JOB EXPERIENCE
  • Remember that writing past work experiences that
    are not related to the position you are applying
    for, is a waste of space for more important
    details. Write what is only applicable to the job
    description.
  • Be sure to have an online resume review before
    you hand it down to the hiring manager.

TOO MUCH OR TOO LESS TEXTS
  • In general, you usually need to limit yourself to
    a maximum of two pages. But it doesnt mean you
    have to swell it just for the sake of doing so.
    It is recommended by experts to have a lot if
    white space, and use not more than 0.8 margins.
  • A free CV check can help you with mistakes like
    this.

TYPOS
  • Keep in mind that you are applying for a job, and
    your resume is a reflection of you. Inspect for
    any grammar, spelling and punctuation mistakes.
    Leaving these typos uncorrected, represents
    neglectfulness and carelessness.
  • There are free resume evaluation online that can
    help you write a winning piece.

GIVING OUT THE SAME RESUME
  • Every job offer is different, thus, you should
    not be giving away the same resume every time.
    Your resume must be tailored-fit for the job you
    are applying for.
  • Have your resume altered according to the need,
    by professionals who does free resume critique
    online.

REMUNERATION INFORMATION
  • Some place their hourly wage in their resume.
    This is not necessary, because keep in mind that
    a resume is a document where you showcase your
    professional abilities, skills and expertise in
    your field of work. The salary can be discussed
    at the interview.
  • A professional CV check can give you assistance
    in accomplishing a well-written resume.

OUT-DATED RESUME
  • It is important to review your resume,and have it
    updated. If for example you have done something
    relevant that enhanced your skills in your field
    of expertise, be sure you have written it.
    Recuriters go for those potential candidates who
    goes an extra mile to robust professional
    abilities and experience.
  • Be sure to use resume critique free to help you
    improve that dull resume you have.

REFERENCES
  • If there is a need to contact your references,
    the hiring manager is going to ask for it. And
    also it is not necessary to place references
    available upon request, it is just a waste of a
    valuable space.
  • Make sure to use free resume critique tool to aid
    you in writing that well-structured piece.
