Resume’s that go too far back into the job seeker’s job history. This is another easy thing to overlook. No matter how unfair it may be society and employers value youth as an important factor when hiring someone. You should not help them by listing all of your many jobs you have had. Don’t list any jobs you may have had 15 years ago. If you graduated from college over 10 years ago don’t include the date of graduation.
A Resume that buries important skills, especially computer skills, at the bottom. You should list your skills at the top of your resume (after the “summary of qualifications” or “Profile”). Your skills are one of the most important factors when choosing a good match for a job, a lot of people put these at the bottom as an afterthought. Not a good idea.
Remember these 2 important tips if you want to have the highest impact possible. The recruiter will only look at your particular resume for around 30 seconds, make sure you have the right information in the right place.
