Resume Mistakes

The main documents that the employers rely on while recruiting an employee are Resumes. The resumes that grab the attention of the recruiter in a single go are called the best ones. Writing proper resumes is not as easy as it seems to be. Every single thing has to be written carefully. Even a single, minor mistake can ruin all the hard work of the employee and spoil his or her career prospects. Recruiters hate to see some things in resumes and so the employee should be careful with these things in order to get a good job.

Any resume full of words is considered to be unsuitable by many recruiters. In fact so many words in the resume make it look clumsy and so full that the recruiters may find it difficult for finding relevant information which may irritate them. The recruiters are not so free that they can read an extensive resume. So it should be brief but as informative as possible. The number of words in the resume is directly proportional to the possibility of making an error. Hence, the lesser number of words are there, the lesser chances of error. Thus, it will be easy for the recruiters to read it and to make the decision easily.

The things that are worth mentioning only those should be mentioned in your resume as the information not needed by the recruiters is not appreciated by them. The achievements that indicate one’s skills and qualities should be mentioned. But if the resume looks thinner then one should focus on increasing skills, activities and internships. The typos error is the worse mistake which is done in the resumes. Typing misplaced words can limit the ability of the resumes to create the necessary impact on the recruiter. Any error in the resume is seen as the job seeker’s inability to do quality work with concentration.

        SO WRITE YOUR RESUME LIKE A PROFESSIONAL

Importance of Non-Verbal Communication
Whether you are in some sort of gathering or in an interview, the mix of verbal in addition to non-verbal communication ( postures , gestures and body language ) are most important. On numerous occasions we tend to overlook the requirement of transmitting the correct non-verbal signals and wind up conveying inappropriate messages. Employers always look at the candidate’s who have balance between non-verbal in addition to verbal communication in an interview. Certain non verbal signals such as professional looks, hand-shake, confidence, eye contact and overall body gesture are essential in recruitment practice. If a candidate continuously rolls his eyes as well as fidgeting, Interviewer immediately realizes that he or she is lying.

Below are the Non-verbal gestures we should keep in mind in an Interview process:

Non-verbal : The approach with which you exchange cards, your handshake in addition to 
eye contact – all create impact within the first few seconds of your interaction with the interviewers. In addition, pay attention about your uniform and accessories since they too send quick non-verbal impulses.

Posture:  In numerous cases recruiter give attention to the candidate’s overall presentation – beginning the moment when they enter work premise to the time he or she leaves the recruiter’s area. Maintaining a right balance in posture is always impressive. 

Fidgeting:  Doodling, tapping your feet, touching your hair/ face , drumming your fingers  – all conveys wrong gesture. Instead minimize your body language gestures so your interviewers can give attention to your words and not get distracted because of your non-verbal signals / impulses.

Space: Those who find themselves under-confident tend to shrink within their own systems, reducing the place they use up physically and within the minds of these listeners. In an interview, stay confident in addition to use hand gesture.

If one of the above non-verbal signal requirement is not met, the interviewer starts cross-questioning rounds with all the candidates. Recruiters put candidates in an uncomfortable zone by cross-questioning. This technique helps recruiter to know whether the candidate is right for the position or not. 

Weightage between verbal and non-verbal communication varies in several Organizations. It's vital to strike a balance between the two for a thriving or successful communication. Firms are getting extra careful in the selection of the candidate and even after recruiting the employees they are giving training on communication skills to boost up interaction with the client.
