Résumé Mistakes
Only about 10% of résumés get the profiles and objectives right, the others they struggle to get it right. A lot of résumés need to be completely re written, these peoples do not have the basic skills and experience to write good profiles/ objectives. Writing a good profile/objective is essential; this is what makes you stand out in a crowd.
The X factor
You have a great résumé with no spelling and grammatical mistakes, no formatting flaws, the content is perfect and you are still not called for an interview. Do you want to know why? Simple, your résumé does not set you apart from the rest. Many people are applying for the same job. The others too have come out with a great résumé. You need to do something to make your résumé ‘stand out’; otherwise it will get stacked in a pile and remain unnoticed.
Other Mistakes
The mistakes we mentioned above are just a few common mistakes most people do when writing a résumé. We receive many résumés from people who are sure they have not made any mistakes, they want to make it sure, so they ask us to double check it for them; imagine their surprise when we point it out to them.
How do I avoid the mistakes?
Review your résumé. Take some time and read it in detail, identify the mistakes, correct them. Find out the areas which can be improved. Be sure of what you are looking for.
Proofread them again and again.
