| Some common errors in Resume |
| • Type errors: Spelling mistakes can leave a poor impression. So have your Resume proof read by someone to remove such errors. |
| • Factual mistakes: Incorrect tenure in an organization, faulty name, chronology of experience, can all lead to misunderstandings. |
| • Long flowing sentences: This distracts the scanning eyes of a recruiter due to the limited time they allot to reading Resumes. |
| • Formatting: The size & type of font chosen can have an impact on the readability |
| • Incorrect contact information: This being the second most critical data after your experience & skills must be correctly presented. Mention both present & permanent addresses with direct contact numbers. |
| • Lack of objective/focus: Unclear objectives can leave a recruiter guessing which field or type of job you are interested in. A great objective statement clearly defines your career goal aligned with the job you are targeting for. |
| • Length: The resume should be descriptive enough to explain what your key skills are, yet short enough to retain interest of the recruiter. |
