Paystack speakers reveal the red flags that keep prospective employers from hiring people.

Once a company puts out a job vacancy, their email boxes immediately get swamped with loads of Curriculum vitae (CV) or resumes .

A chat with the Human Resources team for
Pulse.ng revealed that the hiring managers get an average of 50 per position they post.

These continue to come even after the position is filled.

As a result of the huge amount of CVs or resumes, the HR team has just a few seconds before deciding to either delete or keep them.

This is why it is important to avoid certain red flags.These were all revealed during a recent workshop hosted by Paystack at the ongoing Social Media Week in Lagos state.

The session - 'love-vendor My CV! How To Make Your Resume Standout' - offered a major insight into the mind of an employer and gave CV structuring tips.

Here are five unnecessary things you should never put on your CV according to the Paystack speakers, Kharis Izevbizua and Adebola Adeola.

Primary/ Secondary Education

For Izevbizua, the Product Specialist at the tech company, including details of your primary and secondary education is a waste of time.
According to her, this is a space filler that irritates the hiring manager, adding that this will most likely cause them to stop reading and immediately delete your CV.
The only time you should consider putting this on your CV is when you are applying for an internship.

References

Adding the numbers or email addresses is a waste of space and a waste of the company's time according to Paystack's Product Specialist.
She recommends only offering this particular information when asked.

Irrelevant hobbies and interests

This is another no-no for Izevbizua. Unless the position requires it, there is no need telling your prospective employer how much you love dancing or singing.

Personal stuff

Once upon a time, it was totally okay to include your date of birth or age, marital status and religious preference.

Now, Adeola strongly warns against putting these on your CV or resume. His reason is that this is now considered as discriminatory.
His advice is to simply avoid it except it is a specific job for a specified age. For instance, if a company needs an intern between the ages of 17–25.

Your picture

According to the guy in charge of Paystack's Projects, adding your picture is so not necessary.
Admitting that he was once guilty of this particular CV crime, Adeola notes that is a space filler that should be forgone.

'Being handsome or pretty does not mean you have what it takes to do the job so why to add your picture', he notes.
There you have it. Avoid these five things and you will definitely land your dream job.

Hello
I’m a professional resume Writer with years of experience writing resumes and working on external recruitment processes for companies.

Do you know that a recruiter spends just 6 seconds viewing each resume? Which means you have just 6 seconds to grab his/her attention. And I know this because I have been a recruiter for any years now.

A few years back, when I was still recruiting for a major company, I don’t read all the resumes that get sent to my desk, instead I scan through them and I pick out the ones with Attractive headings that grabs my attention. Sadly, most of the resumes I see are the ones with the plane boring conventional design. I don’t even give those resumes a second look.

As a professional or a top level executive, I think it goes without saying that you need a top shelf resume for maximum effect. And investing smartly in your resume gives you a competitive advantage and sets you up for success in your job search.

What you get from me:
Achievement – based resume that gets you interviews.

Compelling resume written by a professional resume writer.

Beautiful and eye – catching design that is sure to grab recruiter’s attention.

Visually appealing resume with industry specific keywords that will get you noticed by both ATS software and human reviewers.

Privacy – your information will never be shared with anyone.

You can reach me on whatsapp with +2348072063475

Or email me service.prowriters@gmail.com

Be different, be unique and get your dream job
