The look, the size, the information...the truth (sort of). Resumes still grab attention and set potential employees apart, but they can also be troublesome for employers looking to hire. Joanna Patterson of Alverno College tells us about the biggest faux pas made on resumes from design to content, and how to avoid or correct those miscues. She also touches on the mistakes employers make when utilizing the resume to find the right choice. With such great volume, it's easy for employers and job seekers to overlook important aspects of the resume. Nobody's Perfect looks at things a little backwards: What NOT to do. Mistakes are often the best teachers and errors in judgment cross all industries. Job seekers and executives alike commit a variety of blunders that you can learn from so you can avoid the common, damaging missteps.
