I finally fixed my resume after 5 months of quiet rejection
Every job board kept showing I was qualified, but I wasn't getting a single call. My buddy who works in HR finally looked at it and spotted the issue in 10 minutes. I was using a 2009 template with an objective statement instead of a summary, and every bullet point was just my old job description copied word for word. He rewrote one section with me using numbers from my last role, like how I cut processing time by 18% at the Columbus warehouse. Got three interviews in the next two weeks. So my question is, what dumb mistake on your resume took you way too long to spot?
