What Your Resume Is Up Against Susan Adams, Forbes Staff
Last week, the job search site TheLadders.com, released research showing that recruiters only spend an average of 6.25 seconds looking at a candidate’s résumé before deciding whether he or she is a fit for a job.
The study also shows that recruiters spend 80% of that six seconds looking at just six things:
Name
Current title/company
Previous title/company
Previous position, start and end dates
Current position, start and end dates
Education
