resume extravaganza

Going through all these resumes at once was tough, at first I wasted a lot of time, but then in the middle I started skipping the ones that didn’t appear pleasant to the eye and also it was hard to find the information in the given time. After going through these resumes I am not amazed at the minor specifications that the employer looks for. It takes a lot of time and effort to go through those 300- 500 resumes that the companies get every year as applications for the available job.

The five people that I chose for the interview were on pages, 9, 12, 18, 22 and 23. I chose these resumes because these were pleasant to look at and the information was well organized. In these resumes the applicant had enough experience and the qualities to have been considered eligible for the job. There was a direct relationship between their objective, their degree, and also their experiences in the required spheres.

This would really help me in refining my own resume as while I was going through so many resumes I felt exactly what an employer would experience. Thus there were some specific things that I figured were important to have the resume be considered such as the indentation, proper structure and organization of the information, important information bolded so that the employer doesn’t have to search for it.
