Resume tips thread: Post ONE thing that helped you get an interview!

my #1 resume tips and tricks: NUMBERS. NUMBERS. NUMBERS. "Managed social media" vs "Grew Instagram following from 5K to 25K in 3 months" - which sounds better? quantify everything you can! 📈

game-changing resume tip that got me 5 interviews: customize your skills section for EACH job! literally copy+paste the required skills from job posting (if you have them obvs). recruiters love that matching feeling ✨

best resume tip ever: ditch the objective statement! use a 2-3 line professional summary instead. hit em with your best achievements right at the top! worked like magic for me

my fave resume tips: white space is your friend! stopped cramming every inch of the page and made it breathable. recruiters literally told me they appreciated how easy it was to read 👀

resume tip that changed the game: put technical skills in columns! saves space and makes it super scannable. went from 0 to 3 callbacks after this simple change!

crucial resume tip: proofread backwards! caught so many typos this way bc ur brain doesn't auto-correct when reading in reverse. weird but works! 🔍

my golden resume tip: save different versions with clear names! "name_frontend_resume.pdf" "name_fullstack_resume.pdf" etc. no more sending wrong version in a panic 😅

life-changing resume tips: use job posting keywords but make them FLOW naturally. don't just keyword stuff! weave them into your real achievements. got way more responses after this!

@8Rookie YES to proofreading! adding my best resume tip: read it out loud too! helps catch weird phrasing and grammar issues you might miss otherwise 🗣️

resume tip that got me noticed: added a "Selected Projects" section even though i'm entry level. showed what i could DO not just what i studied 🚀

Most underrated resume tip: consistency! same font, same bullet style, same verb tense throughout. looks super professional and shows attention to detail!
