Resume Builder Update

Please find below the points of feedback that we have for the Devant Resume Builder:

  1. Formatting - too many unused spaces in the resume document- usually these are taken into account by ATS

  2. Education and Qualifications – This is designed as half a page of text in the resume. Should be in bullet points with key words

  3. Skills – no skills section present for the students

  4. References - References are usually asked for after the interview, and can be shared on request

  5. Executive Profile / Profile Summary - Some students use too many “I “ statements, ideally which should be more objective for resumes

  6. Additional information; Interests - unnecessary sections and takes away spaces for students who need to write more content

  7. Work Experience – Snapshot of company included in each Work Experience point. This should focus more on relevant skills used in the company with key words.

  8. Headers and Footers – Some of the larger companies use older ATS models, which cannot read headers and footers

  9. Need more categories for resumes - Tech field, Healthcare and Business

    Thanks for your suggestions. CV Builder is a very flexible product that supports custom CV templates, which incorporate merge fields to place data entered into CV Builder. It is possible to exclude fields in the template, even if they have been entered into CV Builder. This approach should allow you to more closely match the output to your "Resume Template Sample" document, or even a number of templates (for different skills titles for example).

    Please get in touch with your Account Manager or Customer Success Manager to find out more.
