5 Statement Errors People Often Make When Writing Resumes

5 Statement Errors People Often Make When Writing ResumesWhich of the following statements about resume writing style is not accurate to apply. Well, here is what I have gathered out of the several mistakes people usually make when writing resumes. Not all resume writers make these mistakes but here is what I know that works best in this regard.Having different format. As mentioned before, an applicant is looking for a particular work experience, educational attainment, and professional awards. Making the same statement about resume writing style is not accurate to make that statement. It is true that we all have different ideas and needs but the applicant also wants to know your resume has one objective: he should like you as a person. Make sure you emphasize on his qualifications.Appearing too opinionated. As an applicant, you are probably very confused at times by some unknown facts about yourself. However, being overly critical and judgmental on yourself may create your interview er looks off. You are hired to do a job not to be critical and judgmental. Avoid appearing judgmental because it can make you seem less likable and the employer will not want that.Past employment only. Remember, everyone has their own life story and past employment. A resume must highlight why you are better than any applicant who applies for the job.Resumes can be great or terrible depending on what you put into them. If you are not very specific about your qualifications then it can be easy to skip this part of your resume and not get noticed.Misapplying statements. Some employers take the negative, negative statements about the applicant's skills and experience and disqualify them. The good news is that you don't need to include statements like that; you just need to make sure the information is there and the resume stands out.Statements like these are just simple words that you can add your own feel into. Regardless if you believe in the 'applicant first' mentality or not, it is up to you to make sure your resume has everything in the application.

This Map Shows Where Millennials Really Make the Most Money

This Map Shows Where Millennials Really Make the Most Money For many Americans, the years in your 20s and early 30s are a time to pull up stakes and head off someplace new â€" where, with luck, you’ll make your fortune. But where to go? For ambitious millennials, the first places that pop to mind could be California or New York, where industries like Hollywood, tech and finance seem to mint 20-something millionaires overnight. And if fame or tycoon-style riches are really what you’re after, that’s probably still your best bet. But most of Americans aren’t after those things at all. What they actually want is a solid income â€" and a comfortable life. And if that’s what you’re seeking, your perfect place may be completely different. To get a sense of which states offer young workers the best prospects now, we pulled the most recent Census data showing median household earnings for the age cohort that most closely aligns with the millennial generation â€" ages 25 to 44. Overall, it showed what you might expect. The District of Columbia â€" with a median income of more than $87,200 â€" topped the list. Other coastal states like Massachusetts ($86,600), Washington ($74,300), California ($71,900), and New York ($71,200) weren’t far behind. The problem is, these places can be expensive to live. Sometimes insanely so. Earning $70,000 or more doesn’t seem that great when the median home price is more than $500,000. So to better account for the cost of living â€" and get a real sense of which states offer millennials the best economic prospects â€" we used the Bureau of Economic Analysis’s regional price parity calculations to adjust those state-by-state earnings numbers. As you can see when you scroll over our map, above, the places where millennials actually achieve a higher standard of living are a lot different than the initial set. While young workers in some coastal states like Massachusetts and Virginia remain among the best off, those in places like New York and California fall far behind. Meanwhile, young people living in places like the Dakotas and Wyoming â€" inexpensive areas that have been benefited from a decade-long energy job boom â€" seem rich by comparison.
