A resume is your chance to make a great first impression to potential employers. Here are some things you shouldn't include in your resume to avoid rejection.
1
Personal information is not relevant to your qualifications for the job, and it could even lead to discrimination.
2
Unless your hobbies and interests are directly related to the job you're applying for, leave them off your resume.
3
Objective statements are a thing of the past. Instead, use a summary statement to highlight your skills and experience.
4
Everyone knows that you'll provide references if they're requested, no need to waste space on your resume by stating this.
5
Typos and grammatical errors will make you look unprofessional and could hurt your chances of getting an interview.
6
This will help you avoid being discriminated against based on your past earnings and it's often better to leave it off.
7
Be honest about your qualifications and focus on what you can bring to the table.
