Would a student submit a sub-par term paper to a professor? or would a CEO approach the Board of Directors with an average project proposal? Then why do so many job seekers submit poorly written resumes to employers? Over the years, the team at HRinmotion have received thousands of resumes that get passed over due to misspelled words, poor grammar, terrible formatting, length, and a lack of information in regards to knowledge, skills and experience. We have observed these mistakes in resumes from University graduates through CEO.
If a resume is considered to be “putting your best foot forward,” then why are so many job seekers not taking the time to write a good resume or seeking professional help? Our first impression as employers is that the job seeker is not detail oriented, lazy or not technologically savvy and passive.
Here is an article that describes 10 common resume writing mistakes HRinmotion has noticed by job seekers.
