1 SEPTEMBER
thought of looking for a job... so resume-writing time? google-ing resume template, then saw something amusing...
mistakes to avoid writing resume:
"4. Too many big words. It’s a shame how often a resume is ruined when the author utilizes a superabundance of polysyllabic terminology, or uses too many big words.
Don’t hide behind your vocabulary. When your resume is not clear and to the point, the reader gets bored, time is wasted and your resume goes in the trash.
Simplify! Write as if you were talking to a class of sixth grade students. That’s the reading level all journalists are trained to appeal to in their writing. If it works for America’s newspapers, it ought to work for you.
Instead of saying "implemented", try "adopted" or "set up", for example. Never "utilize" what you can simply "use". Don’t "interface" with people; "work" with them. And never use "impact" as a verb. (Meteorites hitting the moon are about the only thing that should "impact") Use "affect" instead."
LOL...
wonder is that the reason why my friend couldn't get a job the other time... maybe she just bombarded the reader with irritating BIG words... HAHA! amusing to see her spend tons of time thinking of big words to write, then immediately after the reader click 'opened', 'delete' was the next button... WAHAHAHA!!!
OOPS! i am a bad girl :x
