To Tell the Truth Resume Rules

To Tell the Truth Resume RulesTo Tell the Truth Resume RulesRecruiters and resume experts draw a firm line between putting your best foot forward and lying on your resume.The woman was mousy and small - just 5 feet tall and 105 pounds. She wanted to be hired full time at the Ohio-based manufacturing facility where she was temping, and asked what she had to do to make that happen.Well, you have to fill out an application and go through an interview, and then well do a background check, the vice president of menschenwrdig resources, Matthew Rosen, told her.Ill have a tough time with the background check, said the woman.That was an understatement. The background check revealed a criminal record and hard time in a penitentiary. When Rosen asked the woman about it, she said her husband had beaten her, repeatedly. So she shot him - a crime for which she spent seven years behind bars.Rosens jaw hit the floor. And yet, Rosen recommended hiring her.It turned out beautifully, Rosen said. The woman is still working at the plant today. Shes one of the organizations best workers, grateful just to have been given a chance.Its an extreme case. Many people have issues theyd rather sweep under the carpet than reveal on a resume - from work-history gemeinsame agrarpolitiks to degrees not received to an age thats either too ripe or too raw to admit. But all resume issues have one thing in common Getting caught in a lie about them can obliterate your chances of getting hired.Its going to be discovered. If it gets discovered, or when, there will be no chance youll get that job, said Rosen, who is now human resources director for Schiller International University in Largo, Fla. You have a better chance explaining it - much better. If they run a background check, then it will get discovered, and then youve lied to these people. Wholl hire someone whos lied to them? Im going to hire someone who did something and went to a penitentiary. Ill never hire someone whos lied to me.But wh ile its easy to preach truthfulness, resumes are marketing documents that present candidates in the best light. It begs the question What can you successfully gloss over, and how do you do it without turning yourself into a liar? When is it OK to polish, and when does an embellishment become a forgery?In this package, Ladders draws the line. Certified professional resume writers, job seekers, corporate recruiters and career coaches speak out to delineate the difference between an appropriate omission and a deliberate disguise. They break down the resume into sections and define what shows what and how you can tweak your resume to make it shine and still stay within the bounds of honesty. The result is a clear topography of this slippery slope for all those job seekers whove found themselves questioning the distinction between exaggeration and fabrication.Employment and education dates Bottom line It is acceptable to omit graduation dates, but it can lead recruiters to think you are trying to mask your age.Every position must include the year, but not the month..Its a bad idea to fudge dates, given how easy it is to check dates of employment and graduation.But with age discrimination at both ends of the experience spectrum, theres sound justification for strategically dealing with dates - in particular, dates of college graduation. For some jobs, like those of top executives, employers wont hire (somebody) in his early 30s, said Steve Burdan, a certified professional resume writer who works with Ladders. Theyre looking for (an applicant) in his 40s or early 50s.Similarly, applicants in their 50s can face prejudice concerning older workers and their presumed inflexibility regarding salary, learning new technology or being managed by a younger person.When to date yourselfBurdan himself was once a recruiter and admits that checking on college dates is the first thing hed do when reviewing an application. Id take the hard resume copy and go immediately to the col lege (dates) to figure out how old they are, he said.Now that hes a resume writer, Burdan handles resume dates differently depending on where a job seeker is in her career path. If a job seeker has had only three operations jobs in her career and received a degree in 1988, Burdan will include the college dates to signal how old the subject is. If the subject is in his early 60s or 70s, Burdan excludes college dates completely.The point isnt to lie, Burdan said the point is to throw (employers) off the trail as long as possible. An employer will eventually find out a candidates age. But the longer it takes for that to happen, the less time there is for that employer to rule somebody out due to preconceptions about their age, and the mora time there is for a candidate to get into an interview and to build a relationship with her interviewers.But be forewarned Recruiters know what youre up to when youre cagey with dates, and leaving them off can set off alarms. Dates (are) something ve ry critical to have on your resume, said Jacqueline Hudson, a senior account executive for the Renascent Group LLC, an executive search firm. I totally understand age discrimination, but (if dates arent included) automatically (a recruiter will think), What are they hiding? Are they too junior or are they too senior? Dates of employmentWhile leaving off education dates clearly has its pluses and minuses, leaving off work history dates is never a good idea. Recruiters like to see how long a candidate stayed with an employer and, specifically, how many years of experience they have in a given role. If they list five jobs with no dates, we dont know if they spent 25 years at one job and one with another, Hudson said. (Dates) show consistency and what your (work history) pattern is. Nobody wants to hire somebody who will turn around and work for someone else in less than a year.For those worried about a short tenure at a job, contemporary wisdom dictates eliminating months and including only years for job history dates.Work history Bottom LineIt is acceptable to omit work experience, or limit details, after 10 to 12 years.Dont cover gaps by extending your tenure at previous positions.Fill in gaps with consulting and volunteer positions or list the reasons for the unemployment (e.g. a sabbatical, family leave or maternity leave).If you began your professional career in 1974, are you required to fill several pages with technology jobs, promotions and duties dating back 35 years?No. Convention in the resume industry s include a retirement that was cut short due to a nose-diving 401K plan childbirth or family issues a sabbatical or a return to school to pursue a degree.Candidates often write whats known as a functional resume to try to cover up such gaps. In a functional resume, company names and job accomplishments are provided without dates.Dont do it. When looking at a functional resume, hiring professionals cant tell when or where a given accomplishment happened, and it will signal to most hiring managers that a job seeker is trying to hide something.I think thats a big mistake, Van Vreede said. Right off the bat, youre making people worry about you. And if worried enough, theyll leave you out of consideration.Fill in the gapBe forthright by documenting all work-history gaps just as you would a job, said several certified professional resume writers. For example, if you took a sabbatical from 2001 to 2003, include that information on your resume, with sabbatical in all capital and/or bold letters, just as if it were a company name.That way, (the gap is) right up front, addressed and filled in for the hiring manager whos just looking at the dates, Van Vreede said. It gets you through the human resources screen, but you wont be accused of trying to hide anything. And in todays environment, a lot of people have gaps on their resumes.Case in point Schiller International Universitys Rosen reviewed a resume in mid-July that included a gap in empl oyment, but the applicant had been clear that the gap was due to time spent as a stay-at-home mother. Well, thats fine, Rosen said. That was explained. But the other point is, especially these days, losing a job is not a black eye anymore. At one point, if you got laid off, people thought there was something wrong with you. Nowadays if you lose your job, its no big deal.Explain the gapRosen is also understanding of work histories that are somewhat inconsistent, as long as the inconsistencies are explainable. He talked to another job seeker in mid-July who had been at one job for a long time, followed by short tenures at two companies - a potential red flag from a recruiters perspective. The candidate explained that he had moved on from the long-term position to a new one, but left because of a disagreement with a supervisor. He had then moved into a position in the mortgage industry, but lost his job in the early days of the recession. Thats OK, Rosen said. They were at one job for 18, 20 years - thats OK. Thats a reasonable explanation. It really is.Certified professional resume writers Van Vreede and Burdan recommend that job seekers fill in gaps on their resumes resulting from layoffs with any consulting, freelance or contract work completed. Include pro bono or volunteer work, as well.For those who have done nothing since losing a job, putting nothing down can work if there have been only a few months of downtime. If youve done nothing for more than six months, youre getting to the point where people will start to worry. However, unemployment remains common enough in this economy that it should not automatically disqualify a job seeker.Job titles Bottom lineInsert the official title(s) used by your previous employer(s) on your resume.When it comes to job titles, there is no way around the truth. Certified professional resume writers say you must always be honest because titles are easily verified by reference and background checks.By default, you should provide the title referred to by the employer, said Burdan. Companies like the Big Five, theyll have titles like senior auditor. You have to go along with that, he said, even if that title has an unclear meaning out of context. Thats what the industry knows and the company uses. Its awkward, but youve got to use it.It is also easily verified by reference and background checks.Exceptions to the ruleBut there is some wiggle room, said several certified professional resume writers.An example of an acceptable title change would be for an applicant whose past job was as both a schlussverkauf representative and a manager. If that job seeker decides he wants to do only sales and would rather not manage anymore, its permissible to include only the sales experience on his resume, said Mary Schumacher, a certified professional resume writer who works with Ladders.Job seekers who were business owners present a particular problem for Burdan. Too often they include inflated titles, such as pres ident and CEO, he said. He advises against those titles, even if thats what the individuals business card said. Instead, he advises using a title such as principal.The rationale boils down to perception Theres a big difference between being the president of a one-person company and being the president of General Electric, and, in most cases, its wise to dial it back to avoid being seen as exaggerating your role, he said.Burdan also suggests translating or converting titles of candidates who have military or government experience, given that titles such as colonel, major or agent in charge dont have clear meaning within the business community.Education Bottom lineNever claim a degree or certificate you do not possess.Never falsify or round up a GPA.Accu-Screen, a company that specializes in employment background checks, has found during the course of tracking 15 years worth of screens that some 16 percent of academic degrees and institutions listed on resumes are falsified. Job seek ers also falsify 15 percent of technical skills and certifications, Accu-Screen has found.Many job candidates who have gone to college but havent graduated lie by saying that theyve completed a degree. Resume writers also often find such candidates using qualifying language such as only four credits left to get a Bachelor of Science degree.Both tactics are huge mistakes, said Van Vreede. Any reasonable person will look at the candidate and say, Are you stupid? Why didnt you go back and finish your degree? Go back and take correspondence courses online I did it and got a degree. What are you waiting for? he said.More to the point, language tricks send up red flags, giving the impression that a job seeker is trying to be sneaky. A better approach than lying or manipulating language is to say that you attended a program or did coursework at a given institution.Heres another technique that resume writer Burdan uses For those who have college degrees, he labels the appropriate section E ducation. For those who lack degrees, he bundles their education up in a section he labels Professional Training.In a Professional Training section, Burdan will state, for example, that a subject has completed three years of a Bachelor of Science in finance program at the University of Georgia.By labeling it Professional Training, it appears less like an aborted degree and more like continuing education. After all, many people churn through a boatload of seminars and workshops above and beyond their formal education, Burdan noted.I wont hide it, but Ill downplay it, he said. For somebody not to have a college degree is rarer today, and that makes it best to draw attention away from the hole, Burdan said.CertificationsTechnical certifications represent a special case.One field wherein which it is common to find faked certifications is the technology industry. Many IT job candidates will load their resumes with certificate lists or even paste in graphics that only certificate holders have the right to use - such as is the case with the MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer) credential - thinking they wont be checked.But faking certifications, professional accreditations, trade memberships or professional licenses is a cardinal sin, said several certified professional resume writers.Its very easy to check with the organizations that award the titles, and the hiring companies often face liability for hiring someone who faked an accreditation.GPAAnother education-related lie to avoid fudging your grade point average. Christine Bolzan, former vice president in charge of Global Emerging Markets hiring for JP Morgan and current CEO of Graduate Career Coaching, said that job seekers often exaggerate GPAs but that even the slightest tweak will raise a red flag. In todays job market, you cant create any type of question about your candidacy, she said.(Employers) want highly ethical individuals, and hiring companies have their pick. You might say you have a 3.8 GPA and it comes back as a 3.78 GPA. That will raise the red flag. The candidate will say, I was just rounding up, but with the job market as competitive as it is now, theres no room for rounding up.Bottom line If you are caught lying it is too hard to keep lies covered, and, once caught, your chances of being hired are all but obliterated. The Internet and background checks make it hard to cover up a lie.Even exaggerations can hurt you in a tough employment market.The bottom line is that there is no stepping over the line that separates advertising yourself and lying on your resume.Your chances of being hired if you are perceived to be a liar are extremely low. And, with the Internet, rest assured There isnt much that can remain hidden for long.

6 career goals to meet by ages 30, 40 and 50

6 career goals to meet by ages 30, 40 and 506 career goals to meet by ages 30, 40 and 50In most companies, every quarter - or at least twice a year - youre tasked with setting goals for yourself. As a way to manage your responsibilities, help you prioritize the most important deliverables and keep you tracking toward something, goals are often used as benchmarks of progress. If you meet em, you might earn a raise, a title change or bargaining power to ask for more vacation or flexibility. If you dont - its time to work on improving your performance.Thats what makes setting personal professional goals are bit trickier - since no one is holding-gesellschaft you accountable, its tough to stay on track and pushing forward. Thats why long-term aspirations are recommended by career experts since you give yourself years - and hey, even a decade - to achieve them. As career coach and author Mary Camuto explains, these targets create focus, momentum, and markers of your success.Goals sh ould be tangible steps towards both your short-term needs/wants and your longer-term vision for your life Time will pass quickly whether or not you have set a direction or career course, she shares.Ladders is now on SmartNewsDownload the SmartNews app and add the Ladders channel to read the latest career news and advice wherever you go.Here, some ideas for each decade of your careerIn your 30sOnce the day of your college graduation has come and gone, youre running full-speed ahead toward that job you paid so much money to be qualified for. Your 20s and 30s are defined by climbing up the ladder, up the ranks, up the SEO search pages, up, up and up. And if youve ever rock-climbed, you know how much strength and endurance it takes to keep pushing. Whats nice though? The semi-comfortable peak you should reach by 40, where youve created a name, a reputation and hopefully, a skill set thatll propel you into the next phase of life and working.Have a killer online - and offline - presenc eAs a generation thats redefining the metrics and requirements of working, challenging employers to think differently and more digitally, who you are online is arguably just as important as who you are face-to-face. Branding and career expert Wendi Weiner, Esq., stresses the importance of having an sharp presence in the interwebs. This pillar will help you reach where you want to be once those 40 birthday candles arrive. Your 30s should be spent building your network and growing your professional stature. Attend events with business cards, have a professionally written LinkedIn profile, and begin to pinpoint where you want to see yourself in 10 years, she encourages. Begin keeping a brag book that you can update every couple of months with key career wins and projects you are leading.Dont forget to take that elbow-rubbing and quick wit offline, too. Camuto says by the time you reach the end of your 30s, you should be in a leadership position within the community or industry youre pa rt of. Build and participate in at least two networking groups related to your career join or lead a committee, volunteer at events. This goal has impact to both your current and future success in that your resources and contacts broaden as well as your professional reputation, she explains.Set yourself up for future successMoney matters are difficult for most people to discuss - and even harder to do something about. Though discussing retirement in your 20s or 30s might feel way too soon, the earlier you begin prioritizing your financial health, the better off youll be when 65 (or 70 or 75 ) comes. You should plan to pay off some debt in your 30s and open a 401K at your company to begin planning for your financial future, she shares. The less you worry about dollars in your banking account, the more time you can spend wowing your manager.In your 40sFor many, your 30s are a time of tremendous growth, whether its finally reaching a c-level title or starting and completing your fami ly. With demands from every corner of your life, most people feel stretched thin, and well, really happy. Even so, its important to keep your career progressing as you inch through your 40s, navigating the process of aging mentally and physically. You never want to lose your competitive edge, considering you still have a good 20 years of work ahead of you.Get an advanced certificationThis doesnt mean you have to go back to school, Weiner clarifies, but it does mean having a candid and open look at your skill sets to seek areas of improvement. You might fall off track as you become further removed from those college days, but a commitment to knowledge will allow you to keep up with recent grads. She suggests finding certifications - like Google Analytics or a coding course - that add another gold star for your resume.Take executive leadership classesTheres a difference between a manager and a leader even if you have ten direct reports, if youre not inspiring them to greatness, your e missing the mark. Not everyone is a natural-born trailblazer, so Weiner encourages 40-something professionals to acknowledge their weakness in this department. Consider enrolling in an executive leadership or executive management program to enhance your leadership value and skill set, and start to get clear on where you will want to be for the next decade, she says.By doing this, you will be more qualified to go for keynote speaking sessions - or at least some sort of panel or conference - that adds more overall value to your brand. As Camuto explains, having a public image that others follow not only impacts your recognition and success at your current organization but also lead you to a new path/new goals.In your 50sAs you reach mid-life, youre probably going through a period of transition. Your children are getting older - as are you - and you could worry the best days of your life are behind you. Or more to the point the most exciting times of your career have passed. Look ing down the eye of retirement can produce a slew of emotions, but before you allow yourself to get carried away, remember there are still many years to shape your performance. Since most wont retire until at least 65, discounting the last decade and some pennies will shortchange your career.Strategize your retirement exitYou cant go over it, cant go around it - you must go through it with a plan in mind. Weiner says strategizing your exit will rest your angst and also put you in the best possible situation once your final working hour closes. So go on, ask yourself where do you want to be - and who do you want to be - when that day arrives? Probably not over-exhausted to your bones, but in a happy place of balance and accomplishment. You might be looking for a big shift in your career and where you want it to take you on the tail end of your final decade of work. By now, you are practicing more work-life balance and also realizing the importance of vacation days and time away t o travel, she says. Sit with your investment advisor and with your family, and determine your timeline so you stay the course- sans fear.Serve as a mentorWorkplace expert and industrial-organizational psychology practitioner Amy Cooper Hakim, Ph.D. says professionals in their 50s will reap rewards (and hey, some karma) from giving back to budding workers. Not only will you be an important figure in their career, but it might ignite a renewed sense of optimism and creativity in yours. One of the biggest gifts you can give to your field and community is to help those who are in need of mentoring. As you teach a mentee the tricks of the trade, you may even be inspired by your mentees enthusiasm and overall interest, she explains.

What to Do When Your Job Is Toxic - The Muse

What to Do When Your Job Is Toxic - The MuseWhat to Do When Your Job Is Toxic Youve probably been planning for this moment since you were 16 years old, plotting your dream life in your high school bedroom. Finally, youre crafting your own career, on your own terms You probably imagined the high-highs praise for a job well done from a supportive anfhrer, substantive assignments, collaborative co-workers and opportunities for adventure But what about the low-lows? I regularly hear from young women that they are stuck in toxic environments Predator bosses, sabotaging co-workers, institutionalized sexism, life-destroying workloads, and unsafe work conditions. So what do you do when this has job has been your dream since you were a teenager? How do you protect yourself when this position or this company is an important first step toward your version of The Big Life?I think a lot about Erin Andrews. She welches honest, vulnerable, and brave in herbeibei lawsuit against the stalker who took peephole video of her when she was on assignment for ESPN and of the hotel that allowed it to happen. She had the ultimate unsafe, toxic workplace. But Im even more impressed with how she has built her career and crafted a personal life in the wake of public humiliation and violation. Its a phenomenal display of strength. The story has slipped from the headlines. But this piece about the unimaginable lengths other female sports reporters have had to take to protect their safety on the job has stayed with me. They do their job, despite obvious threats, because they love it and it matters to them.Erin shined a very bright light on some dark corners of her world so other women wouldnt have to face the same degradation. And should you find yourself in your own soul-sucking version of job hell, these tips can help you protect yourself and keep you moving toward that Big Life. (Note This is not legal advice and if youre in physical danger, please see the police.) But if you need to prote ct your heart and soul from a toxic situation in the present moment, this advice compiled from The Badass Babes- a sisterhood of young women who are going through the struggle together and want to help you succeed- is for you.1. Keep a Paper TrailAfter a year of high-fives in her job as a coordinator at a film festival, Jennifer was promoted into an executive role. She knew it was an amazing opportunity to add management experience to her resume. But quickly she saw some financial sketchiness that made her very uncomfortable. I refused to sign off on certain financial documents. I did my best to clean things up and keep my name clear. But I also saved emails and correspondence to absolve myself from blame down the line.She knew she had to get out, and so as soon as she could land another job, she gave her two-weeks notice. She says The final answer was to take the experience I needed, struggle through what I could reasonably handle and then get out. 2. Ask to Change DepartmentsAfter a year of unpaid gigs at small startups, Haley finally landed a job at a prestigious beauty company. But the environment was not the supportive place to grow that shed been promised in her interviews. She found herself iced out of important meetings and criticized by co-workers in front of her boss. The shocking thing is how senior women dont support the younger women starting their careers- they seem threatened, Haley says. But rather than jump ship, she crafted a plan to lobby her bosses in a series of meetings and memos to create a customized role for her in another department. She got the new gig, but still shes soured on the company. When I make my next move Ill be proud to say I did everything I could to make a job work for me and for them, Haley says. My sanity is more important to me now than it was when I just wanted a big name on my resume.3. Plan to Pay it ForwardKiera* was thrilled to land a PR job right after graduation, but within the first month the entire team quit (red flag) and she found herself with zero guidance. Even worse, her new boss yelled at her at every turn. I was so, so miserable there, every day I knew something traumatic was going to happen, Kiera explains. Ultimately the job was short lived- Kiera quit. But she left with an important legacy of the gig I learned how not to treat my co-workers, but I still get the shakes every time I pass the office building.Ultimately, the minute you realize that youre in a toxic situation, you should start crafting a plan to find a job, and a company, that treats you with the respect you deserve. The dream is still yours, but the path to get there doesnt have to be so treacherous.

Why gossip is so seductive (and how to avoid it)

Why gossip is so seductive (and how to avoid it)Why gossip is so seductive (and how to avoid it)Gossip is like the junk food of communication. We know that it is bad and unhealthy, but its hard to resist its draw. It is rude and unkind, and of course its always terrifying to think that something you said could get back to the person you were gossiping about.Knowing all of its downsides, why is gossip still so hard to resist?The ways gossip brings us togetherGossip Creates Stronger BondsFor many of us, one major reason that gossip feels irresistible is that it was a primary way that we learned to bond with others. Men tend to bond by engaging in a shared activity.Womenoften bond verbally via conversation. Many grow up hearing their parents, grandparents, and other family members talk about one another behind their backs. Gossip, therefore, feels familiar, and any familiar habit is hard to break.Gossip is a gruppe SportGossip also allows people to feel that they are on the same team ag ainst a common enemy. Gossip puts you and your conversational partner on one side, and the unlucky person who is being gossiped about on the other side. This increases feelings of connection with a friend, or a potential friend, because both of you bond over looking down on someone else.The social psychology term for this is in-groupout-group bias, where just because you are in a certain group or on a certain side, you start to feel mora of an affinity for your own group members, as well as feeling hostility towards members of another group.Gossip Helps Us Express Emotions and Feel Better About OurselvesGossip has another advantage for people who find it difficult to express emotions you dont have to be vulnerable with your conversational partners about your own feelings or weaknesses if you direct the conversation toward the topic of other people. For people that find it threatening or feel exposed by going too deep in a conversation, gossip is an easy way to avoid looking inward w hile still carrying on a conversation with a friend.A final short-term benefit of gossip is that is makes you feel better about your own circumstances, especially circumstances that you feelanxiousor insecure about. Condescending or judging another persons romantic relationship, for instance, can make you temporarily feel more secure in your ownrelationship. You may think, My boyfriend may be emotionally distant, but at least he is physically faithful to me. Of course, this doesnt help your own relationship in the long run, but it can be a quick way to avoid thinking too deeply about issues that make you feel upset.What about the negative aspects of gossip?The downsides to gossiping far outweigh the positives, which most people realize. Gossiping feels like a guilty pleasure at best, and a compulsion at worst.How to Break out of the Gossip CycleIf you want to break the gossip habit, it is important to first think deeply about why you gossip, and which of the above reasons resonates with you most. You need to discover what role gossip plays in your life, both interpersonally (between you and other people e.g., facilitating bonding when youre socially anxious) and intrapsychically (within yourself e.g., making you feel better about issues that youre insecure about).Replacing Gossip with Healthier BehaviorsOnce youve introspected about the function of gossip, you can figure out how to replace gossip with other, healthier behaviors. For example, if you areinsecure about your weightand therefore recognize that you take any opportunity to gossip about others weight gain or style choices, you need to focus more directly on your own body image issues. Therapy can help with this, as well as taking the initiative to choose behaviors that fall more in line with your goals, such as starting to exercise, or meeting with a nutritionist.In terms of bonding, there are many other ways to bond with potential friends, or to deepen your connection with existing friends, besides g ossiping. Often, conversations can grow a lot more intimate if we focus on sharing our own feelings and insecurities, rather than talking about other people. Friends will empathize or share their own emotions in response, which can deepen a friendship much more than gossiping.Be confident in yourself, and the rest falls into placeSpending too much time gossiping is a sign that you may need to examine your life more closely. Becoming more confident in yourself and your choices will allow you to feel stronger and to live a more authentic life. When you are happier with yourself, you may find that gossip seems much less appealing, and it can become a lot easier to be kind and nonjudgmental of others.This article first appeared on Talkspace.
