When composing their resumes, most applicants try being as detailed as possible. As a result, we see lengthy (over 2 pages), unnecessarily detailed resumes which are hard to read because of loads of irrelevant information.

What to leave out when you make your resume online is just as important – or even more important – as what you include. Placing inappropriate information may result in your resume being trashed even before with https://writemyresumes.net/cv-writing-services/ the recruiter reads it. Here’s a list of things you should omit if you want the job:

1. High school

Unless this is your highest level of education, remove it from resume. If you have Master’s, who cares where and when you finished it?

2. Short-term jobs (unless you’re a recent graduate)

A student without relevant professional experience may include temporary jobs to demonstrate his soft skills. For a professional listing them is a bad taste and may make the recruiter doubt his professionalism.
