BH Careers International Helps Clients Prevent Resume Mistakes

BH Careers International knows that any of the problems job seekers face in conducting an effective job search – or preventing them from taking effective action – relate to a series of myths about various aspects of the job search and resumes. For example, should you put personal information on your resume? Should you keep your resume to one page? What color paper should you use? When should you fax or email a resume? Is it best to send your resume to the personnel office? Should you follow-up with a letter, phone call, fax or email?

Job seekers frequently ask these and hundreds of other questions about the “do’s” and don’ts” of resume writing, production, distribution and follow-up. BH Careers can help you examine some of the major myths and corresponding realities facing today’s job seekers. In so doing, you should get a good overview of how to write, produce, distribute and follow-up your resume.

Will your resume be “dead upon arrival” or will it see the light of day with a potential employer? If myths were not enough, here are some of the major mistakes job seekers make in writing, producing, distributing and following up their resume before seeking the services of BH Careers . Most of these mistakes will kill your chances of getting an interview since your resume is “dead upon arrival.”

Any discussion of resume effectiveness must address five distinct resume development stages: assessment, writing, production, distribution and follow-up.
