‘Red Flags’ or Do Not Do’s for a Resume are things which should be avoided while preparing a Profile / CV.
 

  • Try to eliminate spelling mistakes and grammatical errors like tenses etc.
  • Avoid using First Person Pronouns like ‘I’, ‘Me’, ‘my’ etc.’
  • Use a logical step by step structure
  • Try to keep it concise and crisp
  • Be truthful and accurate
  • Be creative
  • Mention hobbies only if you have one that can be an interesting topic of discussion 
  • In General Achievements school level participation does not carry much weight and hence can be left out.
