1. Are you just listing your cell phone for contact?. One phone number is enough
2. Are you using clichés in your summary of experience description? Words like result-oriented, self-motivated, dynamic, team player, proven track record often will not get past the new resume scanning programs. Better to use words from the job description or posting.
3. Are you listing only the years in which your were employed and not the months?
4. If you were self employed were you specific with regard to the projects you worked on and did you include your client names if you have permission to do so?
5. Did you include anything other than name and dates of employment for jobs you had early in your career? Unless they are particularly relevant to the job you are applying for, don’t..
6. Did you include your familiarity with specialized software and newer programming platforms?
7. Did you include any volunteer work with non-profits or other charitable activities?
