Resume. That one word causes a lot of different emotions in different people. Fear, loathing, despair…love?
Yeah, that’s right. Love. I love reading and writing resumes. Formatting, editing, tweaking, creating, I love it all.
However, I’ve come to realize that I’m an anomaly, and most people really despise putting this stuff together. I was perusing the interwebs the other day while trying to help a friend put a resume together, and came across a fantastic article, Avoid These 10 Resume Mistakes, written by professional resume-writer, Dr. Katharine Hansen.

I strongly encourage anyone who’s updating their resume to take a peek, consider the list, and revisit their work. Happy writing!
