Not long ago, I explained why Google greatly prefers applicants whose resumes use the X-Y-Z formula to describe their experiences — and why job seekers who don’t use that formula greatly diminish their chances of getting an offer.
However, it’s clear that there’s an even more fundamental problem before we even get to the formula. It also makes it much harder for top companies to identify great candidates from among the millions (literally, millions) who apply.
Writing for Business Insider, Rachel Premack interviewed Amazon’s recruiting manager for university programs, Celeste Joy Diaz, about what she thinks is the single biggest mistake that Amazon applicants make.
It turns out Diaz agrees with the top Google recruiters, along with many others at top companies. It all comes down to a basic misconception about what a resume is supposed to do, and therefore what successful applicants choose to include.
