Simple Resume Fails
-
I was going to post a couple of questions in my own thread, but I will start here first. I haven't been maintaining my resume since I started working here 8 years ago. Obviously, things employers are looking for in resume formatting, content, etc have changed. What would be a good format and things to focus on? What order would you be placing things in?

@LilAng - I have never seen a resume with someone's religion. That is weird.
Common in places like Utah.
Yep! We have clients ask us (on occasion) if we are LDS.
My answer is always that we help anyone and don't discuss religion or politics.

@NerdyDad - So if you don't get paid, it isn't work experience? What about interns?

Unpaid is still work. Volunteer, intern, paid intern, low pay... all work experience.
If being unpaid makes it not work, that would imply that slaves didn't have to work. That doesn't make sense, right?

I've seen resumes from people living in largely Muslim countries that state their regilion. It's almost like they think we're prejudiced or something...

@wrx7m I think you missed the real point, which is to simply dress appropriately afterwards.

When they make lists that are not lists but run on sentences.

When they repeat the same pointless info over and over.
