我们知道你非常靠谱。专业技能？绝对胜任。经验？不胜枚举。哦，你还很有人缘？不可思议！你是一位真正的专业人士——那种许多招聘经理或许很乐意见面，并最终聘用的职场精英。

那么，为什么你总是接不到面试邀请电话呢？

这或许是因为，甚至在你获得一个当面展示无敌魅力的机会之前，你的简历就让你的求职梦胎死腹中。一个可悲的事实是，一些看似微不足道的简历细节，可能导致面试官对你的印象分急剧降格——从“值得一见”，到“或许吧”，再到“这家伙是认真的吗？”

幸运的是，大多数简历陷阱是很容易避免的。

Monster采访了多位招聘官和职业教练，以期找出哪些细节导致他们扫一眼简历，就放弃了相关求职者。下一次更新你的简历时，务必要留意这些注意事项。但愿那些招聘经理像我们一样，把你当回事。

看上去很草率的电邮地址

如果你还在使用类似Coolguy87或Megadeth_rulez75这样的电邮地址，赶紧换个名称！至少在你提交工作申请材料，或者进行其他职场交流时，千万别用这种电邮地址。（想尽情使用自己喜欢的那些蠢蠢的昵称？去社交网站Reddit吧。）

尽管你在私下里可能是一个率性而为的家伙，但在这里，请恪守传统：你在寻找工作时使用的电邮地址，应该只包含你的姓名，必要时多两个数字也无妨。

“每当看到诸如surferman86或jacksmom12这类电邮地址时，我浑身都不自在。”此前接受Monster采访时，法律人才招募机构Link Legal Search Group合伙人拉胡尔·佑得这样说道。“我的假设是，你根本就是懒得计较你的专业形象。而懒惰绝非我心目中的候选人应该具备的品质。”

刺目的错别字

如果说这类电邮地址让你给招聘官留下了非常懒惰的印象，不妨设想一下：倘若你在页面顶部，用15号字体把“work”错误地拼写为“wrok”，那会怎么样呢？

一个错别字可能导致一份在其他方面非常出色的简历石沉大海。这真的是一种耻辱，因为只需60秒的拼写检查，本可以预防这种悲剧。做完拼写检查后，在你把简历寄出之前，最好找一位你信赖的朋友帮你再检查一遍。记住：标点和语法错误也算是。

“鉴于就业市场的竞争如此激烈，如果一两个错别字导致你跟一份好工作擦肩而过，那实在太悲催了。怨不得招聘官，因为在招聘过程的那个时点，简历是他们筛选求职者的唯一依据。”职业教练玛丽亚·卡特里恩·赫斯林告诉Monster。“错别字可能会让招聘官觉得你缺乏对细节的关注，马虎，心不在焉。”

以过于荒诞的方式彰显独特性

打算把你的简历塞入一块巧克力蛋糕，或者采用其他什么怪招？再想想。这种吸引眼球的壮举通常是不可取的。“我们告诉求职者要展现独特性。保持真实。” Lawternatives公司创始人谢丽尔·里奇·海斯勒告诉Monster。“但随后，我们还告诫他们，简历风格务必要恪守行业规范，切勿越界。不要刻意突出自我。不要让雇主怀疑你的适应能力。”

脱颖而出当然好，但你采取的方式一定要契合目标雇主所属行业的范式。如果你拿不准行业准则，你最好把简历的“独特性”加分局限在一种醒目（但要具备可读性）的布局或色彩的运用上。换言之，千万别用漫画字体，拜托。不要使用基于图片的简历（除非你寻求的是一份设计类工作）。不要采用不寻常的结构。

缺乏实质

简历的全部意义在于，它有助于招聘经理迅速，但仍然很详细地了解你是什么样的人，你有什么本事。这意味着，不要把简历写成“我在这里工作过，我做过这事”这类流水账。你需要展示结果（雇主特别喜欢数字）和成就，特别是那些跟你申请职位相关的成就。

“雇主想要有执行力，能做成事的员工，”网页设计资源库Alphabetix公司高级项目经理凯利·布拉登告诉Monster。“给我们举几个能够证明你执行能力的例子。”

一堆文字

不，你的简历没必要像智能手机的界面那样光滑——我们已经告诉你，不要把它设计成一本小册子。但你的简历务必要干净，具备可读性和视觉吸引力。

就这一点而言，最重要的窍门是：让你的简历文本呼吸。你可不希望创建一堵由文字堆砌而成，令人望而却步的砖墙。这样的简历会让读者很头疼，估计看不了几行就扔在一边了。

前招聘官科林·麦金托什哀叹道，“从左到右，从上到下，接踵摩肩；这些简历布满了文字，但似乎什么也没说。”麦金托什目前担任安全穿戴设备初创公司Revolar副总裁，负责合作伙伴关系。他补充说，简历一定要干净，简洁，与申请岗位高度相关。

换言之，撰写不同的想法时，记得换行，列举不同职位时当然也应该这样。不要尝试着用很小的9号字体，把所有的信息都塞入简历之中。牢记这个座右铭：无论何时，被阅读的删节版，总是好过未被阅读的未删节版。（财富中文版）

We know you’re the real deal. Skills? Check. Experience? Plenty. Oh, and you’re a people person too? Incredible! You’re a true professional—one whom many hiring managers would probably love to meet in person and eventually employ.

So why aren’t you getting those calls to come in for interviews?

It could be that your resume is doing you in before you even get a chance to impress with your winning personality. Sad fact: Some of the smallest things can downgrade your resume from a “yes” to a “maybe” to an… “are you serious?”

Fortunately, most of the pitfalls of resume writing are easily avoided.

Monster talked to recruiters and career coaches to find out what makes them discount a candidate at first glance. The next time you’re updating your resume, make sure you keep an eye out for these no no’s.. We want to make sure those hiring managers take you seriously as we do…

Sketchy-looking email addresses

If you’re still going by Coolguy87 or Megadeth_rulez75, it’s time to change things up—at least when it comes to job application materials and other professional communications. (Go ahead and use your goofy handles on Reddit all you like.)

While you may be a free spirit in your personal life, stick with conventional here: The email you use in your job search should only consist of your first and last name, and a couple of numbers if necessary

“When I see an email address such as surferman86 or jacksmom12, I cringe,” Rahul D. Yodh, a partner with Link Legal Search Group, has previously told Monster. “My assumption is that you are just too lazy to care about your professional image. . And laziness is not a quality I look for in prospective candidates.”

Typos—any and all of them

Speaking of things that’ll make you look lazy to a recruiter…how about misspelling out “work” as “wrok” in a 15-point font at the top of the page?

A typo can sink an otherwise solid resume, which is a shame—since 60 seconds worth of spell check could have prevented that fate. Better yet, after you spell check and before you send it off, have someone you trust look over your resume as well. Remember: Punctuation and grammatical errors count too.

“With competition for jobs so tight, a typo or two unfortunately can knock a candidate out of consideration because at that point in the process, that is all the person hiring has to go by,” career coach Maria Katrien Heslin has told Monster. “Typos can give the impression of a lack of attention to detail, sloppiness and an uncaring attitude.”

Weird attempts at uniqueness

Think you’d like to bake your resume inside a chocolate cake—or whatever this is? Think again. Such feats to make yourself stand out are generally not advised. “We tell job seekers to be unique. To be authentic. To ‘keep it real,’” Lawternatives founder Cheryl Rich Heisler has told Monster. “But then we tell them to keep their style within industry norms, don’t stick out, don’t make an employer wonder about your ability to fit in.”

Standing out is all well and good, but you want to do it in a way that fits the mold of your target employer’s industry. If you’re not sure what that means, you’re best off keeping your resume’s “unique” points limited to an eye-catching (but readable) layout or use of color. In other words, no Comic Sans, please. No picture-based resume (unless you’re in a design-related field). No unusual structure.

A lack of substance

The whole point of your resume is that it gives a hiring manager a quick—but still detailed—look into who you are and what you have to offer. That means going beyond the obvious “I worked here, I did this.” You want to show results (employers love numbers) and accomplishments, particularly those that resonate with the role you’re applying for.

“Employers want folks who can manage execution and get things done,” Kelly Braden, senior project manager at web design resource Alphabetix, has told Monster. “Show us some examples of getting stuff done.”

A wall of text

No, your resume doesn’t have to look like some super-slick smartphone interface—and we’ve already told you not to design it like a brochure. But your C.V. should be clean, readable and visually appealing.

The most important tip on the topic: Let your copy breathe. You don’t want to create a forbidding brick wall of text that gives your reader a headache before they’ve made it through the first few lines.

“Left-to-right, top-to-bottom; these resumes are one word after another, yet seemingly say nothing,” former recruiter Colin McIntosh, now VP of Partnerships at safety wearables startup Revolar has told Monster. He added that you want to make your resume clean, concise, and relevant to the job.

In other words, build in line breaks between thoughts and definitely between positions. And don’t try to cram everything in by using a teensy 9-point font. Keep this motto in mind: Abridged and read beats unabridged and unread any day.
