Recruiters are not the enemy of job seekers - with a lack of time to process large amounts of information, they optimize their work by avoiding wasting time searching for and studying resumes with unclear and illogical content.

It's impossible to please everyone - no one has ever managed to do that, but resume fixing service is not a difficult task.

Below you will find a list of the most common, in my opinion, resume writing mistakes and recommendations for fixing them.

Mistake 1

Using names of non-existent vacancies as the name of the desired position. For example, if you are interested in the vacancy "Logistics Manager", and in the "Desired Position" you write "Specialist of Multimodal Transportation", you yourself minimize your chances of getting the job you want, because the most common job title with such job content is "Logistics Manager".

And the employer's resume will primarily consider "logistics managers" rather than "Specialists...".

Don't be lazy to look through the vacancies you are interested in before posting your resume and choose the titles of the desired positions for your resumes that are most popular with employers.

Mistake 2

Lack of words and phrases used in job descriptions in the text of your resume. A recruiter reviews resumes at the same speed with which an average Internet user browses browser tabs based on search results - it takes 6-20 seconds to find the desired information in the tab.

"Catch" can only match the text of the resume to the job description - the presence in the text of the resume used in the job description words, terms, phrases.

If they are not in the resume, believe me, no one will read about your professional achievements, no matter how floridly they were described.

If you want to get an interview, match the employer's "search terms".

Mistake 3

Uninformative text and a long resume
I'll repeat what I wrote above - a recruiter spends 6-20 seconds on a resume.

If you're willing to spend 8 minutes watching a video demonstrating how a recruiter handles a resume, check it out on Youtube.

The video, I'll warn you right away, is tedious, but it's good enough to understand the process.

If 6-20 seconds is not enough time to find relevant information for your search query, you can blame the job seeker in the first place.

Searching for the necessary information in the thick of such uninformative stamps as "supervised activities of subordinates" or "conducted business negotiations" quickly tires the recruiter, and, sorry, irritates him.

Therefore, the resume can be closed if it takes more time to verify its relevance to the employer's needs than the recruiter is willing to spend.

And there is no need to be offended by employers - Internet users also close pages if they do not have enough patience to find the necessary information in a voluminous and inconvenient for reading text.
