I applied to 100 jobs using a resume with the name, "Kismma D. Nhuhts" and I got 29 interviews.

This is what I've learned about resumes: Image
1. Put your recruiter hat on and read this resume. Would you give this person an interview? Image
2. One more chance. Are you sure you'd give this person an interview?
3. How about now? Most recruiters only spend about 6 seconds reviewing a resume. Therefore they WILL NOT read through all your bullets (initially).

Focus on crafting the PERFECT resume template (build one using the best resume tool for free: ) wonsulting.com/resumai?utm_so…
Image
4. Despite that, we got 29 interviews at these big, medium & small companies, which shows that this '6 second rule' isn't isolated to a specific size of company. Image
5. Remember the hidden eye tracking experiment w/ recruiters ()?

They read in an F format, which means the biggest factors in your resume are:

1. As long as your resume looks like a good resume (the template I shared above).
2. 80%+ of your bullet points must have numbers
3. Clear job titlesImage

I set up a hidden eye tracker on 2 recruiters to find out exactly where they look at your resume before making a decision.

Here are 5 tips I’ve learned about resumes. Image
1/ Recruiters typically read in an F format. They'll focus on your most recent experience (read the job title, bullets), skim through your previous job titles & companies.

Tip: Order your experiences & bullets to *scream* the job you're applying for Image
2/ Recruiters will spend < 10 seconds reading your resume. Therefore it is your job to make it as digestible as possible.

Tip: Use a standard template (A free template here: ) wonsulting.com/resumai
