When Bullet Points Attack A story about a girl who really loves
When Bullet Points Attack A story about a girl who really loves 55 Flares 55 Flares A Corn on the Job reader sent over a little gem of an email today. She had found something that she thought I could possibly use on COTJ. She was right. Jackpot! Please remember, Im not making fun of this job seeker. I dont know who they are, and if I did, Id offer them my advice/guidance/coaching. But I dont, so Im merely poking fun at them and hoping it teaches the rest of us a big lesson. Never mind, I MIGHT be making fun of them a little, but its totally warranted. Promise. Bullet points are supposed to be simple, right? Their purpose is to point out important information on a resume and lead the readers eyes to where they should focus. This is pretty much standard information that weve learned since before even comprehending what a resume is. You know, like 3rd grade stuff. Well apparently, not everyone is aware. You are now about to see part of a resume that clearly shows the job seeker utilizes hearts for bullet points. Sigh. Theres not much to say. She used hearts for her bullet points and because of that, I cant look at anything else. Maybe this would be a bad ass idea if she was applying to work for a dating site, but there arent many other examples where Id say its a good idea. Im kind of at a loss for words, so how about you take over from here. What do you think? Do you think recruiters will laugh at this? Did you laugh at this?
