Do you know which are the “Dangerous Resume Mistakes” that ruin your job search?
Here are the Resume Mistakes that look small but are big enough to kill your job search and some useful Tips to make your resume perfect.
We have found that the following mistakes have been found on most of the resumes. Say 1 out of every 3 resumes. Make sure that your resume doesn’t have these mistakes.
1. Email addresses on your Resume
Do not use inappropriate, non-professional-sounding email address on your resume.
It creates a first but bad impression. Do not use funny chat email ids like “judith4luv@yahoo.com” or “i4u@gmail.com” or “flyingangel007@hotmail.com etc.
2. Unprofessional pictures / photos
Do not use Resumes with unprofessional photograph or picture of yourself. Use a professionally taken picture rather than a casual one or an edited one which you have taken during a lunch or party or a casual outing. This leaves an impression of you being unprofessional. Remember that you are not posting this picture on your Facebook Timeline to receive “Likes” from your friends.
3. Missing or incomplete information
Do not use Resumes with missing information — no dates of employment, no list of skills. Ensure that all details are available and double check the dates of employment. Any error may either reduces your chances of getting interview calls or putting you in an awkward position during interviews.
4. Generic Resumes
Do not use Resumes that are too generic. Tailor your resume according to the position you apply for. Do not think you can apply for all positions with one resume. This means customization of your resume to suit the position, and not tampering the facts or lying to make your resume to suit the job.
Finally
If you are unable to make your own resume, take it to someone who really can make a good resume for you. Never take it to so many people for writing or editing your resume. Remember “many heads many minds”. You ultimately end up in having a resume which does not reflect your true self. Your resume should be “you” only and not others.
A well presented resume is the first essential step in your job search. Your resume is the marketing tool for you. Remember “Best resume gets you the best impression and attention”.
Best of luck.
