Do people actually put all these meaningless buzz words? I wouldn’t put any of this crap because they are all just the base standard of having a professional career except adding way too much fluff.

When I touched up my resume in 2023 (last time I looked for a job) I honestly was struggling to compact as much technical skills and experience as I could and even had to leave some stuff out. The only point that was this type of stuff I put on there was like “maintained own schedule and communication via email” even though my current job requires a lot of emails and “office level” work now.

This might be anecdotal and specific to my field to be honest. I’m an industrial electrician with 10 years experience. But to be fair, I applied to 12 places in 2023 (I was picky about applying), got 3 interviews, one was no offer, the other pay was too low, third I accepted
