Frequent Resume Mistakes

Resume is your first chance to make an impression, don’t waste it! Here are some common mistakes to avoid:

  1. Complex Landscape
    1. Follow standard resume format
    2. Don’t try to be unique by choosing some stylish layout, colors or fonts
    3. Interviewer spends not more than 20 seconds scanning the resume, complex style only makes it harder to read the content.
  2. Unnecessary Details
    1. Keep it concise and clear. Avoid giving unnecessary details like the addresses of previous employers or the college you graduated from.
    2. Don’t give the project design in the projects undertaken, just 1-2 line summary is enough. Emphasize on your role in the project.
  3. Typos
    1. Spell check but note that it won’t catch it all for you
    2. Have your friend proof read
  4. Personal Information
    1. Do not mention sensitive information like passport number
    2. Do not provide a link to your personal website if it contains more than your just curriculum vitae
