Because the doc opens, I see one mistake that crushed my coronary heart.

He had his contact data within the header of the primary web page of his MS Phrase resume doc.

This can be a deadly govt resume mistake that would forestall it from being learn. Why?

(1) Data within the header or footer tends to not get learn or digested by most ATS, and…

(2) If a recruiter is taking a look at a doc in an e-mail previewer (akin to MS Outlook) with out opening up the whole doc, she or he will solely see the  physique of the doc and never very important header or footer data.

So when you have your contact data within the header of your resume, your resume can seem “headless” — and a hiring supervisor gained’t have a method to attain out to you.

And that’s what probably occurred to this particular person within the 700 functions submitted over a yr.

My coronary heart broke.

All of that misplaced alternative.

Over a technical oversight.

So terribly unhappy.

So I pointed this out in hopes of turning issues round for him.

He needed to lower data out of the physique of his resume to slot in the 3-4 strains of contact data, however it was 100% value it!

See, don’t cram a lot data into your resume.

There’s such a factor as “an excessive amount of” and it begins to harm you, prefer it did for this job seeker.

White area is necessary.

And protecting contact data within the physique of the resume is paramount.

If this job seeker may have landed a job one month or 6 months earlier… it will have been life altering, proper?

When individuals dismiss resume writing as necessary, it’s tales like these that make me suppose in any other case.

Understanding the right way to write a resume and land a job is a high quality of life ability. Arms down. Nobody can inform me totally different.
