I’ve been working with a client to interview candidates for a finance/accounting position. I’ve met some very sharp and eager individuals who could fill the positions and it makes it difficult to choose. But for every ‘”good” candidate, there are several “bad” candidates. Here are some lines extracted from their resumes that told us to hold off.
“Please don’t misconstrue my 15 jobs as ‘job-hopping’. I have never quit a job.”
“I have lurnt Word for Widows, computor operations and spreasheet progroms.”
“I procrastinate, especially when the task is unpleasant.”
“Instrumental in ruining entire operation for a Midwest chainstore.”
“Wholly responsible for two (2) failed financial institutions.”
“I have become completely paranoid, trusting completely no one and absolutely nothing.”
Do you think any of them wonder why they have not received any interviews, much less a job offer?
