Some top common mistakes I have seen so far during resume screening, specifically about formatting, wanna spend sometime to point out several points.
1. Too much details with a long paragraph about your experience:
Make sure all your experience highlight the tech stacks, metrics, achievements you have, with bold font.
No highlighting your experience
If you have experience/internship in tech company, definitely put it ahead of technical skills and projects. The ordering of the sections usually can be like this:
— For Junior: Education -> Experience -> Project -> Technical Skills
— For Senior: Experience -> Technical Skills -> Education -> Project (Optional)
Why ? because this is how we the hiring manager value the importance of each sections, you wanna catch their eyes at the very first galance.
Inconsistent format, wrong spelling or grammar:
big red flag, it shows whether you have done enough due diligence for your job applications.
