Most often, when looking for a job, we make a lot of mistakes. As a result, time passes, but there is no work.
You should not consider firms that have no vacancies.
This error is one of the most popular. In fact, most companies and firms have their own database of job seekers. If you have contacted the company with a question about employment, then your contact information will be stored in the database for a long time, regardless of whether you were hired or not. In the future, if space becomes available, the HR department will first use its own database and select the resumes they like. Perhaps yours will be among these resumes.
The resume should not be too long, no more than one page.
This is also a big misconception. If you have something to say, then you do not need to hide, no one will tell you about your qualities for you. But no need to pour water, preferably more facts and figures. Write, for example, that thanks to you, the previous company increased its capital by 20%.
If I embellish myself on my resume, then they'll definitely take me.
More often than not, this is not the case. No, of course, it may work, but it is far from a fact. In most cases, everything is revealed at the stage of employment. And if your deception is revealed, then you will definitely not see a place. It also happens that applicants still get a job, but then, in the process of work, they do not cope with the tasks.
I will send my resume to the company and tomorrow you can go to work.
In fact, there is enormous competition in the labor market. If you have sent your resume to the company, you do not need to think that you are the only applicant for the position. Therefore, when compiling a resume, describe yourself as fully as possible from the best side.
They didn't call me back after the interview, so they didn't take me.
This mistake is also often made when looking for a job. You have not been called back, so call yourself, specify the results of the interview. Employers very often delay the answer, even if they are ready to hire you.
