Resume Extravaganza

The candidates that I chose to call for an interview were 9, 10. 13, 20, and 29. I basically looked at the objective they said they were applying for and looked at their relative experience related to that objective. Even if they had no experience but stated that they were looking for an internship in that field, I still gave them some consideration. The next thing I looked at was the education info and how their GPAs looked for the time period they had been in school. I chose those with the lower GPAs that had graduation dates coming sooner than those with high GPAs with graduation dates in 2010 or later. I then looked at the basic format to see if it was appealing to the eye and whether or not that would pass the test. If it looked good, I would keep scanning the rest of the resume. If it looked too busy I moved on. So basically came down to a well written objective statement that lead into previous experience.
