Do you want to apply for a job you found listed on Craigslist? Your goal is to get the job, not get your resume in the trash. So, what should or shouldn't you do?
Email when you should of faxed, faxed when you should of emailed, mailed when you should of dropped off in person and so forth. Listen, most hiring companies on Craigslist tell you exactly how they want to get your resume. Not following their direction is the quickest way to get your resume in the trashcan. If you can't follow simple instructions, nonetheless those highlighted in bold, can you be trusted to show up for work on time?
Not include a cover letter. Many job seekers make the mistake of assuming cover letters will be asked for. They will not. Why? Because cover letters are standard practice. If you don't even know this, hire a professional writer to write your resume because it is likely a piece of junk. This is the number one rule of resume writing and applying for a job; a cover letter is necessary and common sense.
Write a stupid objective. Okay, so you submitted your resume the right way and wrote a cover letter, but you aren't in the clear yet. Many resumes end up in the trashcan at the word "objective." Although stupid, most resume templates include an objective. Isn't your objective to find a job? Of course it is. Don't forget to change your objective to the wide range of jobs you apply for. So, you applied to McDonalds too, great. But, never send a resume with your objective of "working in a fast paced restaurant," to a bank.
Go into great detail about your college and high school years when it was over 15 years ago. Okay, you want to state that you have a college or high school degree. State nothing more than where you want, when you went, and what type of degree you acquired. Listing all the clubs and organizations you participated in is only recommended for recent students with no job experience. Not for you, who belonged to organizations that likely don't exist to this day; after all it has been 15 years ago.
Use stupid and vague phrases to describe your skills. So, you know how to use a computer. Guess what? My 5-year-old can turn on a computer, open up internet explorer, type in nickjr.com, find her way to the games section, adjust the volume, play a game, and then print the page they insist you print at the end of each game. Not only that, she knows how to load paper into the printer too. She also likes to open up Microsoft Word and just type because she can. Can you do more? You better state so. Don't just say "good computer skills;" explain those skills.
Not have a somewhat professional email address. On your resume, you will include a telephone number and email address as a method of contact. Make sure your email address isn't hotchick69@hotmail.com Not only that, imagine if you emailed your resume from that email address? Your resume will find its way into the virtual trashcan before even opened. It is free to open an email account with Yahoo, Google, and Hotmail, so do it. Your best bet is to use your name or some non-slutty variation of it.
