[ Resume in Comic Sans ]
Principal: You’re hired.
References available on request is standard, I dont want assholes ringing my current employer until such a time as I think it is worthwhile.
Especially if you post the resume on online to LinkedIn or something. Its no different from posting a friends number for all to see, not cool.
My resume: I survived working for the state for over a year without any of the patients grievously injuring me. Here’s my license number.
Them: you’re hired!
How would I tell people I don’t work well with others, and work better alone?
Independent.
Strong work ethic with an individualised approach?
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
take your resume thesaurus and shove it up your ass

How to make your resume look like everyone elses.

won’t make it past the “AI” gatekeeper if you don’t. and even if you do, you get the whole “we’re not peeking, but are you black or trans?” thing. and if you’re in the usa you probably get to pee in a little jar, too. all just so you can make not enough to live. yay.

Same. It’s fake, insincere, tap dancing bullshit. I can do the job and get along with people, that’s all you need.
