Resume Mistakes
These are from actual resumes:
- "Personal: I'm married with 9 children. I don't require prescription drugs."
- "I am extremely loyal to my present firm, so please don't let them know of my immediate availability."
- "Qualifications: I am a man filled with passion and integrity, and I can act on short notice. I'm a class act and do not come cheap."
- "I intentionally omitted my salary history. I've made money and lost money. I've been rich and I've been poor. I prefer being rich."
- "Note: Please don't misconstrue my 14 jobs as 'job-hopping'. I have never quit a job."
- "Number of dependents: 40."
- "Marital Status: Often. Children: Various."
