Common resume mistakes include:

– Using font size 9 or smaller for the majority of your resume (any recruiter over 40 can’t read it!)

– Having task-based bullets instead of achievement-based bullets (all CFOs do similar tasks…how well you do the task sets you apart)

-Making your name bigger than your title (some think you subliminally send a message that you have a big ego to contend with 🤣)

But these mistakes are not the only mistakes I see…. I list 4 more executive resume mistakes in this executive resume tips video I created for you

I’ve been doing a lot of executive resume trainings lately…and the point covered in this next video has come up a few times recently:

The executive resume isn’t the most important part of an executive job search.

Yes, it’s true. And I say it as someone who runs an executive resume writing firm (well, we do more than that, but you get my point).

So what’s the most important part of an executive job search?

Watch my short video for the answer and explanation….

And go to FreeExecJobSearchTraining.com for on demand training on how to conduct a proper, successful executive job search.

You will be soooo glad you did.

The executive job search is different from other job searches.

And the executive job search today is different from executive job searches in previous years.

It’s never been more competitive at the top…where there are naturally fewer roles.

So, if you are starting a new executive job search or struggling in your current executive job search, then this video is for you.
