most resumes look pretty much the same. Everyone knows everything. That is what
the 25 minute technical phone screen is for... they turn into 5 minute ones
when every answer is 'I dont know'. We have a 95% rejection rate on phone
screens here.
putting expert on your resume is for marketing purposes and gets people passed
HR. I don't weed anyone out because of it and I do not put them to the top
either.
Nothing wrong with people marketing themselves. It's pretty easy to find out if
its true.
its just a resume... and people need jobs.
