For job search and resume advice, choose carefully.
It’s often said, “If you ask 10 people for advice on resumes and job hunting, you’ll get 20 different opinions.”Please be careful opinion Beyond expert advice.
Opinions are centered around personal preferences and are often shared with good intentions, but may inadvertently contain misinformation or misdirection. Expert advice centers on successful strategies and is provided by highly skilled individuals in their field.
Sometimes it can be difficult to decipher the difference between opinion and expert advice. It helps to take the time to carefully consider ideas, information, and sources.
for example:
❓❗️Are your family members professional recruiters, or do you just *think* that daily calls to HR can help with your search? Can you share examples of multiple people who have had success with this technique?
❓❗️Why does your mother *think* that a resume has to fit on one page? When was the last time she wrote or reviewed a modern resume?
❓❗️When your friend tells you to apply for “any position” to increase your chances of getting a job, does it mean well…or does it just *think* that this strategy might work?
❓❗️When your co-workers tell you to add or remove something from their resume, is it because they “think” they know best (and like your idea), or are you drawing from sound advice? You get the idea. Evaluate advice carefully, especially when it comes to things as important as your job search and resume.
Finally, I would like to thank those who contributed their time and ideas, even if they chose not to apply the pickled advice. Please appreciate all feedback and contributions while searching. However, remember that what works for one person may not work for another. take care Explore options and ideas and apply what you think is best you.
