A recent survey indicated that a lot of people have been using simple tricks to boost their resumes by a pretty large margin. For example, 19.5% of the people that had hired professional resume writers said that they have received over three job offers which is a pretty amazing number if you think about it.
Another group of people said that they included charts as well as other visual aids like diagrams into their resumes and this helped them get more than three offers as well. While these aren’t always going to work, they definitely help. Maximizing your LinkedIn profile has also been shown to help, and a lot of respondents, almost 60%, said that they had optimized their LinkedIn profiles beforehand. The use of keywords was also seen to be quite effective, and users that took advantage of this were able to get more job offers. This proves to a certain extent that getting the job can often be about making your resume a little more presentable.
