Dating Apps and Resumes

 

What does a dating app and your resume have in common? You might answer absolutely nothing! Well, countless studies have shown that both rarely spend more than ten seconds to make an informed decision on whether to continue the conversation. I am sure you have been told over and over “you only get one chance to make a first impression” well it’s true!!! Too often students stress about the interview process, and don’t spend nearly as much time refining their resume. The most controllable part of any job search is how you present your credentials. Your resume is your personal sales brochure. It tells the employer the following: Who you areWhat you have done, What you can do
