Typing or Spelling Errors

Typing and spelling errors are on the list of the top 20 employer pet peeves. If you want to get your resume noticed, eliminate typing, spelling, and grammar problems before you send out your resume.

  1. Start by using spell check to review your resume for spelling and possible typing errors. Spell check will not pick up missing words or poor grammar.
     

  2. Proofread the resume carefully and then have it reviewed by a Career Advisor or an English Tutor in the Student Learning Center.
