It goes without saying, but the content of your resume matters.

It’s not just about making sure you list the right things or ensuring the dates are correct, but also checking that all your spelling, grammar, and punctuation are on point.

Review your resume to make sure it’s error-free. Too many resumes have simple errors that can be easily caught.

We understand that proofreading your own work can be challenging. The possibility of missing an error is great since you’re the one who created it, so ask someone else to review it for you. They may be able to identify errors that you did not see before.

Never send out a resume with errors, though it may be a great one, errors take away from the credibility of it. Don’t miss out on a good work opportunity due to the improper usage of homonyms, for example.

Remember, review, review again, and have someone review for you.
