Resume

Dec 19

Let’s hope that no one really writes these things in their resume. I can’t believe people can be so silly — I mean dumb.

I found this here written by HR World.

“Applying for a new job comes with its fair share of rejections, setbacks, frustrations and perhaps even lonely periods of unemployment. If you’ve been turned down for position after position, you could be getting desperate and may want to shake things up a bit so that your résumé will stand out from the piles of others stacked quietly in HR. Before you decide to get too creative, there are some rules to résumé etiquette that you should follow. Read below for the 25 things that you should never include on a professional résumé.”

  1. What You Hated About Your Last Job
  2. What You Hated About Your Last Boss or Co-Workers
  3. Irrelevant Job Experience
  4. Sexual Preference
  5. Religion
  6. Every Job You’ve Had Since You Were 16
  7. Age

  9. Lies About Job Experience
