申请美国知名商学院的MBA时,简历是非常重要的申请材料。接下来,我们就来看看许多同学在完成MBA申请简历时常会犯下的6类错误,希望大家能尽量避免犯下此类错误。
1. Resume is for highlighting your achievements and not to list whatever you did in your jobs. Most people do not get this. They use this important tool to talk about their day-to-day activities on the job. Please understand that your resume is your chance to sell yourself in the best possible way. Do not list the mundane details of your job and waste invaluable space which you can use to highlight your abilities.
2. Another common mistake is to use vague and generic language in your resume. B-schools (or anybody who is reading your resume) want to know what specifically was your contribution in terms of cost savings or increase in revenues or better process etc. Mention specifically what was your role and give them concrete numbers to make your point with emphasis.
3. Many people use very dry words instead of using strong action words in their resumes. Words like &aposparticipated&apos, &aposcoordinated&apos, &aposhelped&apos etc are very weak. Use strong words like &aposBuild&apos, &aposCreated&apos, &aposImproved&apos, &aposReorganized&apos etc to give due credit to your work. If you just participated, its not a big achievement, think about something more than participation.
4. Use clear bullet points rather than writing your achievements in a big paragraph. Paragraphs bury your achievements and kill the purpose of your resume.
5. Prioritize what you want to sell. Resume should not exceed one page. In their quest to say everything in one single page, people crowd their resume with so much detail that the reader gets turned off just by looking at the resume. Please know what is really important and say only that. Use white spaces to give fect to those important points. Don&apost bury them in a lot of words.
6. Avoid your industry jargons. This is most common with people applying with IT backgrounds. People on the adcom do not know what is &aposmiddle layer OO design". Keep it to yourself. Please simplify what you did for them in their language and more importantly - give them results.
