Things to Avoid
Typos and Phonetic Spellings: Regardless of the position you’re applying for, proper text presentation is essential! Typos or phonetic spellings indicate a lack of effort and preparation, often disqualifying your resume at the first screening stage.
Incorrect Header: Don’t mix up the company name or the job title you’re applying for! Sending too many applications without updating the header or misspelling the company’s name can be a critical mistake in an otherwise good resume.
Key Evaluation Points
Education and Experience with Timelines: While HR values education and experience, it’s not just about the levels but the relevance to the position and the duration of your studies or employment.
Clear Format and Structure: A resume should have a reader-friendly layout with appropriate headings, sections, and bullet points. This helps HR quickly scan for key information and understand your strengths.
Tips for Standing Out
Quantify Achievements: Use specific numbers and data to quantify your accomplishments. This helps HR quickly grasp your performance and bridges potential gaps in industry understanding.
Projects and Portfolio: Highlight projects and work you’ve done that demonstrate relevant skills and experience. Use tangible examples to showcase how you solved problems or achieved goals, which are crucial for HR assessments.
A resume that effectively communicates value increases the match between the candidate and the job.
