Ask HN: What is the single most impressive item you've seen on a resume?
Hopefully there are some interviewers here on HN who can tell some educational and entertaining stories without violating anyone's privacy. I'd also be happy to hear from individuals who have great resumes themselves.
- loumf 12y agoI'm impressed if it appears that the resume was rewritten for the specific job I am hiring for. That's what I do. What this mainly means is editing and accentuating.
- mojoe 12y agoYour approach has the added benefit of making it more likely that your resume will make it through HR recruiter screening. I know that having a biochemistry degree instead of a computer science degree has made some HR employees immediately reject my resume -- once I reach a technical interview I do well, but if I don't personally know the hiring manager it can be difficult to reach the technical interview in companies that have a large number of applicants.
