How to Fix Three Common Resume Mistakes

As a recruiter for over 20 years, I have read THOUSANDS of resumes…perhaps even millions!  Still, it surprises me that with all the help out there to write resumes, people still make these three common formatting mistakes.
Mistake #1 – Typos
Even with all the grammar and spell checking features, people still make typos. 
Solution
I suggest you read your resume out loud, word for word.  Really look at each sentence and word to make sure it is correct.  You could also ask a trustworthy friend to look it over for you too and offer suggestions.
Mistake #2 – Using Personal Pronouns
Personal pronouns are words such as “I” or “we” or “my”.  A resume is intended to be a professional document written to represent a candidate – you!  You don’t want to come across as unprofessional or that you do not have good written communication skills. 
Solution
Try taking out all the “I’s” and “we’s”.  Sometimes if you simply take them out, the sentence still makes sense.  For example, “I sold more than 500 widgets per week” translates into “Sold over 500 widgets per week”.  This type of phrase works and is appropriate for your resume.  Second, replace “my” with “the”.  For example, “my team was responsible for designing all the code for a website” becomes “the team was responsible for designing all the coe for a website”.  It sounds more professional when you phrase it this way.
Mistake #3 – Too many key words
I’ve seen resumes where they spend an entire page on keywords so that their resume comes up in every search done by a resume database or the internet.  This is particularly true for technical resumes.  However, it is very unprofessional and quite frankly, annoying.  It doesn’t truly represent what skills you have and can confuse future employers.
Solution
Go over all of your key words and pick the skills in which you are at least intermediate skill level.  Select these as your top skills and make certain they are on your resume.  If you don’t have too many (say twenty or less) then go ahead and add the skills in which you are beginner or better. Unless you are a new college graduate, do not list skills that you have not used in your previous jobs.
Now you know what three common resume format mistakes are and how to fix them.  Polish up your resume so that your skills, education and background stand out, NOT your unprofessionalism!

Common Dating Mistakes People Make

In the beginning online dating seems to be too thrilling. You sign up with a dating web site and write a very impressive online dating profile. After posting your profile you wait for some one to contact you. However, the waiting goes endless and you never found any responses. You naturally think what went wrong. There are some common mistake people makes which follows.
Many folks think that online dating is a great way for people who are too shy to date in the offline world. However, this shyness can lead to just another failure. If you do not want to repeat these failures you have to come out of your shy nature.
Be active while you are a member of a dating website rather being passive. Passive daters are actually not suitable for an online dating. what make you too passive? Is it your fear of being rejected? Or is it mere laziness? Whatever it is, high time for shrug it off and participate actively soon after you signed up with an online dating site.
Do not cut and paste your replies. Do not make your communication impersonal. Some people have the habit of sending general mails and impersonal messages to the partner on web. It creates a bad impression. Your date may mistake it as your negligence or even you as a lazy person. All the people like to receive a message which is personal in nature, especially when people are looking for love and romance.
Arrogance can be a negative factor in online dating. If you sound arrogant while you chat, people can run away from you. Bragging about your achievements and your self importance too can be a bigger turn off.
Too much interest in sex talks. When you keep on talking about sex, your dating can mistake you as a sex maniac. Some time the other person takes it as harassment. This can cause cancellation of your membership even. So do have a control over your sexual fantasies while you talk with a person on line. In the beginning, this wouldn’t work much.
Do not lie about your relationship status. You do not going to gain anything from this. Also, some people tend to lie about their looks. Telling lies about your physical attributes, job status, social and economic backgrounds, all are complete nonsense. And do not play with your photo. Do not retouch your photo to look better and thereby attract a person wrongly. This will not actually serve your purpose in the end. All these lies will be revealed sooner or later.
Most of us are shy about taking the first move. But sometimes you too can take that first step in approaching a prospective date. If you do not get much response even after you registered with a popular dating web site and created an impressive online profile, try taking initiative in contacting a person you desire for.
