Stop writing your resume like this! The details you should watch for

I've been working for two or three years now, and sometimes younger schoolmates ask me to look over their resumes

Honestly, when I see the resumes they write, sometimes I don't even know where to start fixing them…

Here are my own standards for a resume: before I even look at your experience, I check the following details

1. Please, please,no typos… I'm reviewing your resume for free, and typos really drive me crazy

2. Inconsistent font sizes and mixed fonts: your entire resume should have onlythree sizes (heading - subheading - body)and one font. A careless resume like that gets rejected right away too

3. Get your divider lines right: when you're adjusting your resume, check that the divider lines between sections are all in the same position. Some people put them in the middle of the text (aligned with that line of text), others use underlines, and the layout ends up impossible to follow

4. Capitalization, how you write amounts, abbreviations and how you present numbers should also be aligned across the whole resume. For example: you can't write $100,000 in one place and NTD90000 right below it. It confuses people about your units and figures.

For all of the above, I recommend LaTex, full stop. It's really convenient and easy to use… (Chatgpt will teach you how to do it…)
