A data
dump.Denseblocks of text are the kiss of death.“The layout of the
content is just asimportant as the actual content,” says TheLadders’ job
search expert AmandaAugustine.“White space does rule.” In the
eye-tracking experiment,TheLaddersfound that recruiters look more
intently at uncluttered,well-organized resumesand online profiles.Use a
bold font to delineate different parts of yourresume,and use bullet
points sparingly.”It’s not a laundry list — it’s aa piece of marketing
material,” she says.
Pictures.If yourresume or profile on a site
like LinkedIn has your photo,a recruiter isn’tgoing to spend any longer
looking at it.Instead,they’ll just spend valuableseconds — 19% of
those six seconds,TheLadders found — looking at the pictureinstead of
reading what they need to find out about you.“And no crazy
fonts,colors,anything that’s going to distract them from the content,”
Augustinesays.
Disorganized information.TheLadders found that when
recruiters look at a badly organized resume,their gaze hops all over
the place rather than focusing on the important parts.“Recruiters are
expecting a clear visual hierarchy,” Augustine says.She advises putting
your work experience towards the top,above youreducation,in reverse
chronological order,with your most recent or currentposition first.
It’s up to you if you want to include the months or just theyears of
your employment,she says.Emphasize the past five or 10 years;
beyondthat,you’re getting into ancient history.Save that kind of
detail for theinterview.
Bland language.Recruiterswant to know if
you’re going to be a good fit for the job.The shorthand theyuse for
this is by looking for keywords in your resume that match their
jobdescription.“An individual resume’s detail and explanatory copy
became fillerand had little to no impact on the initial decision
making,” TheLadders reportsays.So make sure those keywords are in there
— use the original job postingfor reference to see what terminology
they use,Challenger suggests.
