Hiring managers don’t have time to play Sherlock Holmes with your CV. Here’s what might be killing your chances:
- Typos — automatic red flag. Run a spellcheck or let a friend review.
- No contact info (you’d be surprised).
- Generic objectives like “Seeking employment in a growth-oriented company…” Yawn.
- Too much irrelevant info. Nobody needs to know your Grade 9 math score.
- No dates on past jobs — looks sketchy.
