It’s worth noting to make a resume for a thousand dollars.


A college student in a college in Chengdu has spent a lot of money on packaging in order to find a good job. In her resume, there are more than 20 pages of self-introduction and certificate of honor, and 10 other art photos specially taken in the studio. It took more than 800 yuan to take an art photo, and her resume actually cost 980 yuan. After this news was reported by the relevant media, it immediately attracted criticism. It is generally believed that the resume of thousands of yuan is really "not worth it." Among them, some people sharply believe that the behavior of the thousand-dollar resume is purely sensational and full of "show"; some people sincerely suggest that the majority of college students as "proletariat" use the hard earned money of their parents. We should adhere to the glorious and simple glorious tradition, and should not be extravagant in the process of job hunting. Others believe that it is understandable that college students can reasonably pack, and it is not advisable to spend a lot of money on packaging. Only when they learn more can they compete in employment. I can stand in the middle.

These comments on the different perspectives of the thousand-dollar resume can be described as different. In this regard, the author believes that the value of the resume is not worthwhile, and the job seeker has the final say.

I have had many recruitment experiences. At each recruitment, the booths are all job seekers who are shoulder-to-shoulders. Each time the recruitment is completed, they are full of resumes. After returning to the resume, the resumes are first removed from those resumes that do not meet the basic conditions and are not pleasing to the eye. The resumes with simple contents and rough production are also excluded. In the first round of resume screening, the elimination rate often reached 50 or even higher. Many job seekers have lost opportunities because their resumes are not doing well, and many of them are excellent.

For college students, resumes are more important. Because college students are all of the same academic qualifications and have roughly the same experience, the content of resumes is often monotonous. When recruiting resumes, recruiters will often be impressed if they encounter beautifully crafted and distinctive resumes. Sometimes, even the resume owner will have a sense of “dare to be first and different”, and it will rarely be resentful because of the high cost. Relatively speaking, these college students will attract more attention from recruiting units and gain more opportunities, which will help college students to stand out from the competition and improve the success rate of career selection. In the absence of a job seeker, the resume is like the “face” of the job seeker, which has an important impact on the success or failure of the job search. Therefore, it is necessary to spend a lot of thought and invest in designing an exquisite resume. Because the resume is rough and can't find a job, not only does it still have to spend money to produce a resume, but also spends time to continue looking for a job. The opportunity cost cannot be underestimated. Of course, the use of resumes is not one-off. If the resume costs a lot, and the recruiting unit has no intention, the job seeker can also return the resume for other purposes.

I don’t know how to choose a job. Facing the workplace environment with less porridge and more competition, the onlookers may not be able to understand the taste of the scent. In order to improve the success rate of career choices, job seekers still have to spend the cost. As long as the resume is law-abiding and healthy, the job seeker does not deliberately compare or extravagant waste, whether it is spending a thousand dollars or more, we are beyond reproach. After all, only job seekers who are on the front line know the needs of the workplace and have the most say. The value of the resume is not worth it, and the job seeker has the final say.
