WRITE A CV
Writing a resume often presents a dilemma between honesty, creativity, and the need to navigate automated screening systems. In this discussion forum, please share your thoughts on the phenomenon of “resume tailoring”: To what extent should we adjust the emphasis on our experience or use specific keywords to align with the position we’re applying for, without resorting to information manipulation or academic dishonesty? Additionally, amid the trend toward aesthetically pleasing and creative resume designs, do you think the use of visual elements (such as bar charts for skills or a personal photo) truly adds value, or should we instead stick to standard formats that are more “friendly” to Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS)? Let’s discuss how to create a resume that is not only visually appealing but also possesses narrative strength capable of convincing recruiters in under 10 seconds.
